I’ve got Detroit love

October 9th, 2007 · 3 Comments · detroit, music, nightlife

You know the old saying, nothing good happens after 2am? Don’t believe it… We went out Saturday night to THE Detroit afterhours spot, the Fi-nite Gallery in Corktown (a block from old Tiger Stadium) to see Kevin Saunderson play, and he did not disappoint. You know it’s going to be a good show when doors [...]

Friday Night in Ferndale

August 25th, 2007 · No Comments · detroit, music, nightlife, Photos

I’ll be honest, the last thing I wanted to do was go out last night and have to get up early this morning and fight the hangover haze. But when did that ever stop us from going out? We stopped by Club Bart in Ferndale last night, and caught an amazing live jazz/funk band, and [...]

Dear Detroit

August 15th, 2007 · 1 Comment · detroit, internet, Photos

Jacqui, Christa, myself, and a bunch of other friends decided to goto a Tiger’s game Saturday night, and I’m happy to report that we are single handedly responsible for breaking the Tigers’ losing streak/slump. Two things happened that evening which directly lead into this post. First, CJ got a ticket on the way down because [...]

Brush with the famous

August 1st, 2007 · No Comments · detroit

Last night Christa and I took Monty to the patio at AJ’s (the old Xhedos) in downtown Ferndale to get some ice cream and meet up with Bob, Chris Rohn, and his wife. While we are sitting there, a little girl with her parents noticed Monty and kept coming over to stand next to him. [...]

I didn’t know it was over, until it was too late

May 28th, 2007 · 6 Comments · detroit, life, music, nightlife

I admit it, it’s my fault. I didn’t make it to the Detroit Electronic Music Festival (DEMF) at all this weekend. I feel like I owe an apology to a lot of people for plans made, and plans broken. To Jason, Justin, Phil, Jeremy and others: you were right. Now that it’s over, I’m regretful [...]

Nobody talks about a lot of things, but these guys do

March 15th, 2007 · No Comments · detroit, internet, music

Our buddies Adam & Darius have started up a blog to tackle the issues nobody wants to talk about. Nobody Talks About is a blog that points out subjects that �no one� seems to be talking about. From music and entertainment to politics and media � many things get swept under the rug. Since we [...]

Another day older and deeper in debt

February 26th, 2007 · No Comments · detroit, life, music, nightlife, whatever

Saturday was my birthday, and as the saying goes I’m another day older and deeper in debt. That didn’t stop me from taking 27 out and bringing 28 in with a bang Friday night… The evening began with some pre-drinking over at the Brooklyn lofts by old Tiger Stadium. By 11:30 or so we finally [...]

Weekend Wrapup

February 13th, 2007 · 1 Comment · detroit, life, the kids, whatever

The weekend is over and we’re both back in the US. The cottage was a fantabulous success for me, as was Brantford for Christa. Monty was happy to be back home after spending the weekend with Christa’s parents, and Bailey was just happy to see people back in the house again after hanging out on [...]
