Visit Our Sponsor .................. Our Detroit band "Benny and the Jets" has found some success in France. The new ROLLING STONES FANS "VERS L' OLYMPE" directed by Philippe Puicouyoul of the Pompidou Centre in Paris uses a Benny and the Jets song entitled "the Oldest Rolling Stones Fan." A song Benny wrote and recorded about Detroiter Bob Harris. Harris who recently wrote the book "Motor City Rock and Roll of the 60s and 70s" met the Stones in 1964. Benny and Bob have a small part in the movie and are currently looking for a venue for a local screening. IF you have a venue, want to see the trailer, hear the song, or contact Benny, go to www.BennyandtheJets.com CLIP BANDE ANNONCE

We do a wide rage of gigs, from the $200 neighborhood bar gig, to the $2000 concert, with all the clubs, casinos, weddings, grand openings, parties, city and church festivals, concerts and events in between.

In the old days we toured and did gigs with "Chubby Checker", "the Coasters", "Bob Seger", "Ted Nugent", "Question Mark and the Mysterians" and "Paul Revere and the Raiders". We backed up "Freddy Boom Boom Cannon" and "Bo Diddley"

Also see Benny and Bo Diddley BBC RADIO interview with "Roger Daltry" OF "THE WHO" -BLOG

We worked for Auto-rama, Dick Clark and Richard Nator. Performed in the Kingdome, Skydome, Astrodome, Silverdome. When the United States Government needed a band to play at the unveiling of the Bill Haley Rock and Roll stamp they hired-"Benny and the Jets band"

More recently we opened shows for "Kentucky Headhunters", "Humble Pie", "Steppenwolf"' "Marshall Tucker", "Bad Finger", "Rick Derringer" and "Eddie Money"

We played the "Harley Davidson" anniversary ride across America. The "Woodward Dream Cruise" and video with 'Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels". Advertised as the first band to play the new Ford Field Stadium in downtown Detroit.

We did JTtheBrick.com Fox Sports Radio tour with stops in Boston, Atlanta, Jacksonville, Tampa and Miami.

The band is very portable, easy in, easy out, self contained. We do a nice mix of music. DJ, KARAOKE and BENNY SOLO available. No job TO BIG, no job TO SMALL.

Soooo many people see all the things we have done and think we are too big or expensive. Were not We really have done it all, from retirement homes to kids shows, from biker parities to back yard parties. We know how to play to the audience in front of us. We like to get the audience involved, we entertain them, do some games and contests, teach them about the HISTORY of ROCK and ROLL.

And like "KID ROCK" sings on his Cocky CD song 3 "Lay in on Me" "Benny and the Jets" are HOT
