    I see Martha billed on the poster and her picture, but where on this very busy poster [[design and layout wise) does it say this show is being done in honor of Martha Reeves? If she's there, it will be interesting how she will take in Rochelle Laughhunn and the Original Vandellas.

    Well it should be to honor and a tribute to the First Lady of Motown Dr martha Reeves. The tickets are real reasonable but its the darn airfare to Detroit that id be struggling with.

    You're right smark; I don't see it anywhere. But here's the information:

    Coming to Bert's Warehouse Theater. Detroit Finest Music Festival Friday March 14th 2014 at 8:00pm. Special honor to Motown Recording Artist Miss Martha Reeves. Call today 313-567-2030 tickets are on sell now at Bert's Market place 2727 Russell Street downtown Detroit in the Eastern Market District.

    I am in no way affiliated with this; just passing the information along.

    Who designed this poster? It's way too busy, horrible layout and choice of font and colors. Not very appealing...

    Strange, the biggest billing seems to be going to Radio Personality MC Mason of WCHB.Only $15 extra for special seating and dinner- Do you get to select from the 99 cent menu items or do they make the choice for you?

    The wording is quite nebulous- does it mean, that Rochelle who now performs with Original Vandellas, is part of the program , or as Smark interprets, Rochelle & the Original Vandellas will perform.
    As only Rochelle is pictured, it becomes even more confusing.

    The photo of Dr martha Reeves in her white furs is stunning.

    It would be inappropriate for all if some younger woman fronting the original Vandellas sounds a lot better than Ms. Reeves; that kind of situation is one worth avoiding.

    Absolutely not cause the first Lady of Motown Dr Martha Reeves sounds and look real great and is a legend.
