Photo of the Sounds & Sights Festival Now: 30 July 2011

The final evening of the Sounds & Sights Festival featured the classic fun of the Soul Men, an excellent Blues Brothers Tribute Band. (If you haven’t seen the Blues Brothers movie…WHY NOT?! Go watch it. Immediately.)

The Soul Men encouraged audience participation.

As usual, the audience participation proved one key fact: the audience is the audience for a reason. Still, everybody had a good time.

The festival ended with a performance by Fifty Amp Fuse, a surprisingly popular Detroit-area cover band.

At one point a band member stepped on a nail and cried out in pain.

Wait…never mind. He was just singing. In fact, the festival had exactly zero stepping-on-nail incidents. Safety first!

After a few songs, the band invited Parks & Recreation star Aubrey Plaza to sing with them.

Okay, okay. That’s not Aubrey Plaza, but maybe she’s a synonym for Aubrey Plaza. Maybe she’s Aubrey Park, or Aubrey Square, or Aubrey Village Green.

As usual, Fifty Amp Fuse packed the dance floor. Or, more appropriately, the move around somewhat rhythmically floor.
