A folk singer has written a song about all-but-gone Tiger Stadium called "They Used to Play Baseball Here." There's a link to the song itself at the top of the linked article. Go ahead. Listen. I'll wait.
Doo doo doo, hmmm, hmmm, la-de-la-de-la-de-la. Done? Great.
Know what? I love Tiger Stadium, and I have a special place in my heart for folk songs, but that there is some bad music.

Aww come on.. it's not THAT bad.
Admit it, you just wanted an excuse to use the word "hootenanny."
See if you like this one about Tiger Stadium "The Corner" or the Ernie Harwell song "Voice of Summer" www.myspace.com/bquietmusic
