See Electric Six at Beauty Bar

They claim in song to have Satan on guitar and Hitler on drums, but the Electric Six only direct malevolence toward their livers. A motley crew of tongue-in-cheek Detroit rockers with a fondness for ribald disco and double entendres, this bunch provides the levity to the Motor City's raw rock ranks.

When the band hits town tonight, you'll want to get there early, before all the booze is gone. See the group at 9 p.m. at Beauty Bar, 517 Fremont St. Tickets are $15; call 598-1965.
