The outage covered the midwest and east coast, including Detroit, Lansing,
northern Ohio, New York State, Connecticut, New Jersey, and all of Ontario
except the far western part of the province.
Windsor (in Canada, just across the river from Detroit) came back on slowly
starting around midnight, but I think only because Canadian energy sort of
detached itself from the U.S. power grid to get us up faster. But we've been
going on and off sporadically all morning again, so who knows if we'll stay
up.
Joe/r3dshift: Hopefully power will be back in downtown Detroit by tomorrow
night (it's back in Corktown now) because the lineup you missed (Traxx,
Deecoy, Hieroglyphic Being, no Theo though) is scheduled to play at
Untitled.

How big is this power outage? This is crazy right?

|fxck power outages.
|
|of course I live 2 hours from detroit now, and left my house
|at 3pm so I could drink some beers and bbq before heading over
|to see traxx, twonz, and theo parrish.
|
|you all know that at around 4:15pm, the power went out and Im
|assuming (safely I imagine) that the event didn't go down,
|unless it was featuring lots of candles and generators.
|
|so I ended up trapped in ann arbor, unable to get money from
|the bank, no food, no ac, and my friends place is the top of a
|3 story house. it was 85 degrees in his house when I left to
|take my chances with i-75 at 4am this morning. at least my
|car has tunes and ac :P
|
|I hope you're all faring well, and that you can find some
|peace despite the glaring technology void left by the power
|outage. I'm really sad that the best event in the last couple
|months just happened to fall on the night of the worst outage
|in history.
