Yeah, had to read it twice, because I thought I either said IDM or EBM ;)

Re: (313) Demf hotel rooms?

2012-04-02 Thread David Smith
I did the reverse once, went to Windsor for the day and spent the night 
in the ren-cen.  I think they just black-out that weekend so they can 
charge more than the normal online rate.  I've also stayed at the Ponch 
and Courtyard.  Now I think I'd try the Inn on Ferry or the Hostel if I 
needed a place to stay in Detroit.  --Just call the front desks, if you 
reserve early that way it might be lower.  You might get a better view 
for the price in Windsor but if you have a car it is easier to save 
money and time (with the boarder) by staying in Southfield and taking 
the lodge (m10) downtown, which is a pretty quick drive.

Around the time the Chemical Brothers went mainstream... :)

In May 1997, the Chems supported by the Orb played at the
Oakland Kaiser Auditorium (the building is currently boarded
up and Occupy Oakland recently made an unsuccessful attempt
to get in...)

The Orb, who we were really there to see, were fantastic, and when
the Chems came on and played Setting Sun and the crowd *rushed
the stage*, we left.

Rooms are probably still available.  Last year a bunch of promoters
realized they could make money by buying discounted room blocks and
selling them to their friends/audience.

Last year, Liaison Artists had a massive room block with a couple
hundred rooms at MGM.

I'm sure if I asked around I could find out who's got room blocks this year.

Thanks for the props Jeff! 

Threw it together yesterday to fill in for some slackers back in Sydney, it's a 
little messy in places, but I had me some fun none the less ;)

I think instead of Substance, it might have been Stephen Browns release on 
Skudge Mini Mood?

Re: (313) Demf hotel rooms?

2012-04-02 Thread Fred Heutte
I can't figure it -- the situation this year is really messed up.
Even six weeks ago almost everything downtown except the Holiday Inn
Express and Doubletree were full, including my standby the Hilton
Garden and even the Milner.  I think the same is true today.  I booked
a room at the Inn on Ferry St.  Plenty of rooms in the suburbs and in
Windsor, of course.

Then I read how many of these (including the Inn on Ferry and the
Westin Book Cadillac) are behind on their payments to a federal loan
program so the city has to pull in funds that would otherwise go to
neighborhood development.  One more body blow as the city slides
toward handing over most financial control to the state, one way or
another, as soon as tomorrow:
