New York City is a tough place to book shows. I have huge respect for Bryan Kasenic who has put on events for years that, even if they're not Detroit-centric, are always respectable line-ups of artists who would interest members of this list. But there's always a hundred things going on every night, so the audience is fragmented, and NYC is a place people are very status- and fashion-conscious. It's all too easy for someone still working at the top of their game to fall off the 'It' list and play to empty rooms.
As for that festival -- whatever. The line-up sound interesting around the edges, and if you don't like it find one of the 99 other things happening to do instead. Or create your own fun -- find a bar and hit up all your friends, acquaintances and enemies and play some records. Who knows, if your haircut and shoes are right, you might become 'It.'
