I stayed at the Ren Center Marriott in 2001. I've found it's very handy to be easy walking distance from the event, whatever it is (DEMF, computer conference, whatnot).
Last year I stayed with my friends (Electro duo VolSoc) in a pimpin' room at the Atheneum. A little bit further away than the Ren Center, slightly nicer room. Downsides: Very noisy, and somehow the staff discovered our little (*cough*) 4:20 setup, and threatened to throw us out. Cooler heads prevailed, and we remained. I don't think I'd go back there this year, though, after that. ------- I've seen Oscar Mulero do a tag-team 2x4 set with my friend Angel Molina (where are you, Juanjo?) at Sonar. Very Mills-ian set. I dug it. They killed it. - Greg
