RE: [313] re food DEMF

2002-05-15 Thread Suman Ganguli

was there a thread about vegetarian food somehwere in here?  i wanted to
ask if anyone has ever ate at Govinda's--i haven't been there myself, but
i keep reading that the food is good.

it's a vegetarian indian restaurant in the fisher mansion, which is now
owned by the hare krishnas.

i always wondered how this came about, so i finally looked on the web
today: apparently it was bought in the 70s by one of henry ford's great
grandsons and the daughter of walter reuther (?!), who must have been
adherents of ISKCon, b/c it then became the bhaktivedanta cultural center.

 cass cafe is also good, GreekTown.

 If you go to Eastern Market for any of the shows going on during the DEMF
 there are awesome ribs, awesome breakfasts... and a large fruit and veggie
 market for the health concious on a budget (butchers and bakers for people
 looking to eat at the hotel... [sandwiches])

Re: [313] Re: Back to the Future and the Electro revival

2002-05-06 Thread Suman Ganguli

following up on that NYTimes article, here's another NYC publication's
take on the 'electro revival', from the Village Voice website
(http://www.villagevoice.com/issues/0218/rewind.php)...the last paragraph
is the most interesting one:

Rewind! by Tricia Romano

You know the electro revival is officially over when one of the biggest
names in the rejuvenated genre turns up at his gig and plays nothing but
acid house.

That's what Ed DMX of DMX Krew did at the Tribeca Grand on Sunday night.
But as he started piling up the ACEEED, the dancefloor started piling up
with punters w ho were 'aving it, including Elliot Taub (a/k/a DJ
Ulysses), Satamile, and Melis sa of W.I.T.

Sitting in the corner was Flyer's Daniel Shumate, who I had to scold for
the pre vious night's faux pas. Mr. Shumate blabbered to the techno-geek
grapevine that Detroit techno DJ Derrick May was spinning at the
Foundation Crew's party at Groovejet. Of course, a Derrick May sighting is
almost as rare as spotting Salman Rushdie back when the Ayatollah wanted
his head. The rumor was believable only be cause promoter/DJ Kimyon has
ties to Detroit. But I'm beginning to believe that Derrick, like Santa
Claus, is not real. He wasn't there, alas.
