"The Detroit Free Press, another festival sponsor, worked hard, she says, to gain a stage sponsorship."
the artists and labels in detroit work hard and essentially *are* detroit electronic music, past and present. so why can't they afford to have a tent? "I believe in bringing people together," she says. "Its my lifes work." a couple of sentences later: "I think she really understands what marketers want..." "Shes always been into marketing and image." so basically it's her life's work to bring a million people (and their money) together in the name of god (also power and coattail riding), and have sponsors pay her. that is not what *music* is about. i understand that sponsorship is important, but it's a real shame that local artists and businesses cannot afford to participate in a festival that is supposedly about them. ani --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
