Enjoy your free concerts while the kids from Dearborn lode their pools (I guess Big Boy O’Reilly feels this is a good trade-off). Enjoy yourselves Somers and O’Reilly are trying to bury our City, so keep watching the stars, because that’s all we will have left, when thses idiots get done with us.

Thanks for the free concerts, I wonder if this is your way of thanking us for the upkeep of you and your twin Pee Wee Somers, and if it is please don’t do the residents of Dearborn anymore favors.

Don’t miss O’Reilly and ‘Marky’ Mark Sommers duets “CAN’T BUY ME LOVE?” and “YOU REALLY GOTTA HOLD ON ME” accompanied by Debbie Walling on the french horn.
Act Two is Debbie performing “MATERIAL GIRL.”
The three will end the evening with “BACKSTABBERS.”
Too bad they weren’t “TAKIN’ CARE OF BUSINESS.”
The rest of us will be “LIVIN’ ON A PRAYER.”
No pun intended Judge!
“RESPECT” is not on the program this season.
