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 [...]

Bjork-ed

September 18th, 2007 · No Comments · Photos, music, nightlife

Add Bjork to your list of performers you need to see live before you die.
No joke.
Christa, myself, Jane, Jacqui, & Paul went to the Virgin Music Festival on Toronto Island last week, and Bjork made the 2-day concert completely worth the trouble, and it was close to the top of the best live concert/music experiences [...]

Friday Night in Ferndale

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

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 [...]

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

May 28th, 2007 · 6 Comments · People, 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.
