Fusion End-Of-Year Lists: Nate Dorough
For our final end-of-year list, I have to post my own. I didn’t know Irving had a list, and he had Spotify links on his, so if we were having a contest, his list would win. As is the case with most things in my life, I over-compensated and just wrote a lot. Oh, and don’t I look like a hard-ass in the photo above? I mean, if you know me, I’m not a scary looking dude, but I...

Irving's Top Ten of 2011
Everyone is doing these top 10 lists and as the champion of The Fusion Shows Division in our fantasy football league, I felt obligated. I ran production for most of the year for Fusion, and I’m moving over to tackle marketing, while Scott Bell takes over production. I also manage a few artists and I intentionally left them off this list, even though I would have included all of them as I’m in love...
Fusion End-Of-Year Lists: Connor LaRowe
You guys know who Connor is. He’s the guy who has been burying you in Facebook events for the last 3 years. ”Oh, you’re the Facebook event guy! I hate you!” Poor Connor. If you got to know him, you’d know that he’s just a misunderstood little fella. He spends most of his days running. To or from what, we’re not sure. All jokes aside, he’s...

Fusion End-Of-Year Lists: Mike Cruz
To announce the author of our 3rd to last end-of-year list from Team Fusion, here’s what you have to do. Get your best boxing ring announcer voice together, and simply yell this at the top of your lungs.
“Ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for DJ - MIKE - CRUUUUUZZZZZZZZZ!!!”
Seriously, do it. People will think you’re awesome.
I’ve got two more...

Giving back this holiday season
I just wanted to take a minute to acknowledge the charities that we’re supporting for our 3 upcoming holiday charity events.
TONIGHT AT THE OPERA HOUSE (TIPS REUNION SHOW) Last Chance Rescue - Howell/Brighton, MI
Back in the days of the Livingston Underground, when we used to just do hall shows all over Livingston County, we did a benefit show for a great organization called Last...
Fusion End-Of-Year Lists: Ron Howard
Fusion Shows’ jack-of-all-trades, the glue that keeps us together, is none other than the one-and-only Ron Howard (never mind the director guy). Ron got together a list of his favorite, well, everything for 2011. He copped out and used the whole “in no particular order” crutch, but if you listen to music as much as Ron does, it’s pretty hard to choose ten favorite...

The final days of MXTP
Today, I got a bummer of a phone call from JR, owner of MXTP in Grand Rapids. He said that he was sad to say that after January 29, MXTP would be no more. I won’t get into the reasons why, but it’s safe to say that Michigan’s music scene will be very sorry to see them go, as will we at Fusion Shows.
When Skelletones closed a few years back, a young couple named JR and Jess...

Fusion End-Of-Year Lists: Christopher Abalos
We call him “Codemaster Chris”. He’s smarter than you. He loves the Red Wings, but probably isn’t watching them tonight because he doesn’t have cable and he’s working on our new website. And he plays bass in Monument Monument (please join us December 29 at the Pike Room for a rare MonMon show). His end-of-year list is a little different than the rest of...

Fusion End-Of-Year Lists: Katrina Bright and...
Our two summer interns (that have continued on with us through the fall) are getting lumped into one blog post. Not because they aren’t wonderful individuals, but because I’ve got like ten more people’s lists to post, and I forgot to do them earlier this week! Too many shows being booked for 2012!
Anyway, these two have absolutely made our jobs easier, but more importantly,...
