The Gories are coming! The Gories are coming! I first encountered the gigantic and gigantically cool Mick Collins when his band the Dirtbombs opened for the Detroit Cobras at the Beachland Ballroom. The Dirtbombs blew that place up and made the Detroit Cobras seem flaccid in comparison. Now Mick Collins is back together with his old friends in the Gories, and they’ll be playing the Beachland on November 27.
