Thanks. I know my last two visits to Michigan were disasters. Back in the early 1990s I did a two stop, downtown Detroit and out in Auburn Hills where I had maybe 20 people show up. A few years later we tried Ann Arbor, near the campus, but someone dropped the ball on which night and absolutely no one showed up. It’s not just Michigan. I’ve had problems in most upper Midwest stops, Milwaukee, Chicago (hit and miss since Stars Our Destination closed down), Cleveland, in addition to Detroit. Best, R.E.F.
