Just wanted to add my impressions into the heap. I think the first thing I had to realize was to give up any hope of seeing every DJ/act that I wanted. My attention span is only so long, and 12+ hours of quality music is too much :)
Anyway, standout sets- saturday: Terrence Parker, Kooky Scientiest, K. Hand (she was a trip to watch), Ae was fun too - tho you guys were saying how crazy the music was, it was all very loopy and head boppin' to me. I actually made a recording of Prefuse 73 so i'll see how it comes out, but realized i didn't want to shlep my dat around the festival all weekend. saturday night we hit the 7th city party which was much fun. Can I just get a verification who was giving the PA sometime around 4 am in the bigger room? sunday: laurent garnier was great, kid koala was much fun, and kenny larkin->stacey pullen was fantastic sunday night: jak. Our friends gave us their space in line (they had been waiting for 2 hours and it was too cold) but yeah. I've heard lots about the price to get in being variable. I think they charged us 25. Anyway, the sound system was sick. I liked when richie dropped the jak ur body track (how appropriate) and I noticed a few other classics in there. monday: b/c of a few tight sets, this was my favorite day musically. Kikoman was amazing - that style of mixing that rides the line between organic and very electronic techno really drives me. Following that with I:Cube just kept blowing my expectations. After that I was running around trying to catch at least some of the final acts. Doc martin was solid, It made me feel like when he plays in my town (DC) he's pandering to the crowd. Inner City plastered a smile on my face. Funk D'Void and Slam were pounding. I have a feeling that about half of the people @ the underground stage never knew what went on above :) And of course Derrick and Juan. monday night: re-entry. Anyway, it was great meeting everyone. :) -Gil i *heart* detroit --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
