Chances are your inbox is currently getting flooded with announcements of upcoming concerts coming to A City Near You after the obvious live music drought. Good Brews Bad Views + Steve Cuff of Optimism Vaccine are going with "we totally planned this," with Detroit Rock City, in which 4 teens from Cleveland head to Detroit to see Kiss play Cobo Hall. As one would expect from GBBV there's beer, actor confusion, Lord of the Rings references, a pretty good soundtrack and as a bonus, James' tale of struggling to figure out when this movie was made

Skip to our not so hidden track at 1:33:45 for the post episode wrap up, stories from bands the gang have gone on road trips to see live, everyone's first concert, Ryan being Extra Petty, and a very opportune URL currently up for grabs.

Good Brews Bad Views continues Cageuary with the 2020 release of Jiu Jitsu, in which an alien that looks and acts suspiciously like The Predator, but is not The Predator, taught humanity jiu jitsu thousands of years ago and demands that we fight him every six years. An insane sword wielding Nick Cage is here, and so is Tony Jaa, so maybe it won't be all too terrible. Hopefully?
