Rummage Sale of Rock

Corey Goodman of Superfun Yeah Yeah Rocket Ship is at it again. He’s put together a show in Collinsville at the Urban Art Co-op with a whole list of other artists such as The Vanilla Beans, Hood Kicks, Patrick Cadaver, Go DJ Go!, Bad News Gorilla, Remnar Cloudy with other bands in the works (see video of a few of the bands below). Naturally, this wasn’t enough for the creator of Superfun, so he made a rummage sale part of the show as well. That’s right, music, people, and cheap stuff! (Story continues below video).
I called Corey and asked him about the show.
“I took two things I love, music and rummage sales, and brought them together,” explaining the event rather simply.
However this is not Corey’s first rummage sale. When I asked him if he thought this would work, he told me he had the idea originally four years ago and it took place at the Ground Floor in Belleville.
“And I had to wait four years to collect enough stuff to have another one,” he added with a deadpan delivery. I laughed…a little. Lucky for us, this new rummage sale/show is located right in the heart of downtown Collinsville at the newly opened Urban Art Co-op building.
The Urban Art Co-op is a newly minted business alongside the bar scene in Collinsville. It is a neat little retail shop that will play host to Corey’s rummage sale of rock. The business will serve as an interesting venue for the show and it is worth swinging over to their blog and checking out what they are about. As for the show it takes place on December 12 starting at 7 pm and going all the way to midnight. The cover is $5 and it is an all ages show, so the place will probably be packed come 8 pm.
