Oh, they should not be on the logistics end of it. When I say promoters get involved, I mean from a creative angle. Obviously the reason PMC is in on all of this is they know how to handle an event this size. But of course just because an event is big does not mean it is any good. Incorporating some of the aspects of the Detroit scene on an event this size would definitely be something best handled by people who have done it first hand. A lot of the people involved throwing events here work their brains out on those events and I have no doubt would do the same given the opportunity to "do it right". And yes I know several promoters who have worked on and are qualified to work on "concert festival" size events.

Well, I was kind of joking about DJ worship, but what I was really hinting at is that techno, house, electronic music, what have you ... are in an entirely different context at an event like DEMF. It's not a club, not an outdoor "rave," ... it's a concert festival. How many local promoters have tackled one of those? -d >Oh, I forgot. >We don't dance anymore.. > >I put on the table that we change "dance music" to "stand around and stare >at the DJ music" >-r --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
