For the first time in 16 months, Man about town Devon O'Reilly is in studio to help talk about some interesting stories around town and highlight things to check out this weekend. Stories: COVID numbers are up in Metro Detroit: https://covidactnow.org/us/metro/detroit-warren-dearborn_mi/?s=21421067 Rocket Companies says employees need to be vaccinated or submit to weekly COVID tests Smalls in Hamtramck, Magic Bag in Ferndale and Marble Bar in Detroit are leading the pack with requiring vaccination or proof of a negative test to enter. Is this the way of the future? Will what part of town the bar is in play a role in this? Townhouse is reopening with a new look. Devon talked with the owner and here's pics: https://www.facebook.com/townhousedetroit/posts/4815531851806846 Jer waxes about the wax at Spotlite Detroit. It's at 2905 Beaufait Street. https://www.spotlitedetroit.com/ plus pictures on our Instagram, http://www.instagram.com/dailydetroit The Detroit Smart Parking Lab is opening up on West Lafayette, in West Riverfront between Corktown and downtown. It's a neat thing that Devon gets into what exactly it is. But what you don't say is that it's in Corktown Shores. That doesn't exist. The First Lady of Detroit Techno has died, K-Hand or Kelli Hand. Then we get into fun things around town: The Motor City Car Crawl is this weekend downtown. It's no auto show, but you'll be able to get your outdoor new car thing going if you're interested. https://naias.com/motor-city-car-crawl The Hamtramck Music Festival is this weekend: http://2021.hamtramckmusicfest.com/ Detroit City FC opens their season at Keyworth Saturday (preview tomorrow with Fletcher on the show): https://tickets.detcityfc.com/events/dcfc-mens-80721 And for future weeks, check out the Grand Circus Bourbon Party is every Thursday.
