So did I for a sec Wink

I had the pleausre of seeing Marco Carola in Columbus at Redzone once (same night I saw Derick Carter for the first time) at a Clockwork party. It was the opening weekend of Fabric. We were with Victor from two tigers, and he stood behind Marco with an airhorn. That guy was one of the most amazing dj's to watch that I have ever seen. If you haven't seen him, do so.

Something else to note...Adam Beyer will be in D-town on the 10th of December...playing a 3+ hour set in a room slightly bigger than Touch's basement. If Michelle doesn't list it here in a day or two I will.

edit...too bad Marco and Adam aren't playing on the same weekend.

First of all...danggit I wanted to post about Beyer before you did. But of course, I've had days to do it. bleh.

Second....double danggit...I'd like to go up on the 19th for Speedy J and Leibing. Shocked Man what a Paxahau lineup for all of Novreally . I've really wanted to see them (Speedy J and Liebing) again. I think I want to start a Paxahau fanclub. But Beyer in Dec. ( Michelles crew deserves a fanclub too when I think of it) Razz Shocked We're talking two of my favorite sets to date here.

Lots of great stuff. I realize that Detroit is a birthplace of techno, but how does such a hole of a town support such awesome shows?

Answer: They have nothing left to lose! At times Cleveland should try and borrow a page or two from our neighbors to the north instead of saying how much it sucks or continuing to perpetuate the notion that people here just "don't get it"! There are just as many forward thinking people here if we all can ban together and continue to remain positive.

The only time I've ever seen a human being murdered in cold blood before my own eyes was in downtown Detroit. The EDM scene there is a really different world than what we might be used to. I'm not sure I could even try to describe it.

Quite simple really... we left the biggest spot downtown for EDM called Bleu. Sidebar, really cool setup, large dancefloor.. and the LOUDEST EAW Avalon sound system i've ever heard in my life.

So anyways... we're leaving, me and the lady friend at the time (whole reason in was in D-troit)... and these two fellows were arguing about something and in each other's faces on the street, just off the sidewalk. Dude number two takes 3 steps back, pull out a piece and shoots the other guy 7 times in the chest, neck, and head. Everyone hit the ground within an instant... but suburban clevo Reddick just stood there in awe.. and was pulled to the ground by others. The dude put his piece away, and ran off. 8-10 minutes pass before police show up, and we're still waiting for valet which seems like an eternity.

Othere times downtown.. the girls would drink too much and i'd have to drive home... I slowed down and stopped at this red light (like anyone would).. but the girls indicated that past midnight no one stops at red lgihts or stop signs.. because it's just plain dangerous. Even running yellow/red lights nowadays i still yell out DEEEEEE-TROIT! like we used to.. ha ha.

It's odd... but anytime I think of Veronica, or going out in Detroit in general... i get this feeling or sense that's entirely indescribable. I travel a lot, and go a lot of cool places in the US... but i always feel like i'm on US soil. Detroit doesn't give me that feeling. Maybe it was my exposure to the drugs, violence, underground nightlife (illegal afterhours at bars etc.) that gave me a twisted sense of it all... its kinda fucked up i guess.

i was witness to plenty of fights while living in the bronx. however, even at 3 or 4 in the morning, wandering the streets, i never saw a gun pulled on anybody. what a whacky place this detroit must be.

I wouldn't say the EDM scene is a different world...it's a different world in general. Actually I'd say a lot of aspects of the EDM scene there are similar to ours...although the bars are more ghetto and the crowds are somewhat stronger.

Another note about Bleu...I believe that Bleu is the chatchiest of the detroit bars that focus on EDM...every DEMF that's where the cheesy trance acts end up...and Kenneth Thomas is a resident Razz Whether the chatch factor had anything to do with what Reddick unfortunately witnessed...I don't know.

rule applies in youngstown too. but after dark, not midnight. an ex was driving and ran a red light with a cop on the other side. priceless!!!

I'm not too sure. But you're right Justin, there are a lot of EDM venues around the city, and the burbs (pontiac, seven hills, royal oak) And ironically.. i think Kenneth Thomas was playing that night Very Happy
