The Plankman Show 7/24/2025

1 of the toughest shows I’ve ever done but with the support of you the listeners,friends & of course “Tiny” Tim Cook & Ted Eberly we got through this show to pay tribute to a guy that did more for local musicians then anyone in this state! He will be greatly missed around the local music “Scene” here in metro Detroit. He not only helped local bands but also did work for some BIG name artist’s such as SHINEDOWN & Saliva just to name the ones I know. I’m sure there’s some I’m leaving out. Mike was always there not just to support the bands but to support his friend’s as well. He supported “The Tiny & Plankman Show” longer then anyone. He supported tapdetroit.com and of course many local establishments. Shinedown’s performance at Little Caesars Arena will be dedicated to him. He was suppose to be a guest of Zach Meyers at the show as the 2 had become great friend’s over the years. His brother’s will be there as well as many close friend’s.

We played some of Mike’s favorite local bands along with music from Shinedown.

Ray Street Park

Ominous Presence

Poundtown Prophet

These were just a few of the local bands Mike cared VERY patiently about.

You will be missed Mike Thompson
