Summary

"A photographic experience with quotes outside The Club Soda, summer of 1986, Kalamazoo, Michigan. From the early 1980's until 2007 The Club Soda was the best live music venue between Detroit and Chicago, my opinion. Supported by a strong local music scene, and the fact that Kalamazoo is a college town, with Western Michigan University being the largest. Touring bands made the city a stop between Motown and Chitown. The acts booked in could not have been any more diverse. Blues, Motown, Reggae, Alternative, Punk, Country, Rock-a-billy and even a disco night! The people who frequented 'The Club' were every bit as diverse as the music. The photos show this. The 'drunk quotes' as they've been called aren't deep but they are entertaining. This isn't all about the photos, or all about quotes, they combine to make you smile. It was 'the scene' and it was 'the music' I wish we could hear it all again"--www.amazon.com.
