WRIF Presents Rock Hitmakers Sponge at The Ritz on March 29


Platinum hit-makers Sponge headline The Ritz (24300 Hoover Rd., Warren, MI) on Saturday, March 29, 2008.  The show is part of Sponge's national tour in support of their latest CD Galore Galore (Bellum Records). Doors are at 6 p.m.; Tickets are $15, and ages 18 and over are welcome.  Regional rockers Ballz Deluxe, Sliver, Aisle 5, Konniption Fit, and the Mac Arthur Street Mafia open the show, which is presented by WRIF.

Hailing from Detroit, Sponge gained international notoriety with their debut album "Rotting Pinata."  Hits like "Plowed" and "Molly (16 Candles)" fueled massive airplay on radio stations from coast to coast and were in heavy rotation on MTV. After "Rotting Pinata" went Gold, the band toured internationally, sharing the stage with Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, and more recently, Iggy Pop and Nickelback.  Sponge's follow up CD, the critically lauded Wax Ecstatic, includes the hit songs "Wax Ecstatic" and "Have You Seen Mary?

Now touring in support of their newest CD Galore Galore, Sponge continues to stand out as rock's most charismatic live acts.  Sponge front man Vinnie Dombroski's powerful voice, heart-on-his- sleeve lyrics and full throttle stage presence captivates any audience he steps in front of.

Galore Galore features 10 blistering rock and roll tracks, and finds Sponge successfully treading new ground with the Rolling Stone esque I Did It Without the Drugs, while tracks like I Wanna Lose and Wasted Mine, the addictive dark pop the band first unleashed on Rotting Pinata.

Don't miss one of rock's finest - Sponge -as they hit The Ritz on Saturday, March 29.
