Starship featuring Mickey Thomas Lit up the Detroit Riverfront

This past Friday's Rockin' on the Riverfront concert with Starship featuring Mickey Thomas was another smashing success! The weather was perfect, the crowd was impressive and Mickey and his pals did not fail to entertain. Here are a few photos for those of you that may have missed the concert:



I must say -- Stephanie Calvert has some AMAZING vocal chords! If anyone doubted that she could live up to vocal prowess Grace Slick, Friday's concert proved them wrong. That girl can SING! Mickey and Stephanie were the perfect complement to each other (especially during the ballad Nothing Gonna Stop us Now). If it wasn't for Stephanie's obviously young features, you wouldn't know that the duo hasn't been performing together for decades. Mickey and the rest of the band definitely rocked it like there was no tomorrow. The cheers, screams, chants and horn toots from the boats were countless!

Next up: Rick Derringer and the Classic Rock All Stars! They'll take center stage at 8 p.m. this Friday, July 25. Don't forget about all the other great amenities offered at the General Motors Renaissance Center. Shop, dine and rock out all night long!
