bdumes's Concert Archive

bdumes has 1 Ko And The Knockouts concert.

The Year 2000 was a good one to be a garage rock band in Detroit. The White Stripes were beginning their assault on the mainstream and there were a bunch of like-minded groups kicking out the rock. It seemed like everyone was starting bands and putting out records. Ko & the Knockouts formed when Ko Shih, who was bartending at Detroit hot spot the Magic Stick and had been the bass player for the Come Ons, was approached by Long Gone John of Sympathy for the Recording Industry to put a song on his upcoming compilation of Detroit bands.
