Didn't Jeff Mills have a residency at the Nectarine Ballroom in the late 80s? I had my first clubbing experience at a teen night there, although it was a different night than the one he did.

RE: (313) Looking busy: Rephlex in Chicago and Ypsilanti
Yep, Jeff lived in Ann Arbor and had residency at the Nectarine. Tim Baker also had a residency there and he graduated from Eastern Michigan University in Ypsi in 1990, same year I started at EMU. A buddy of mine from back then named Craig Turczak (sp?) also had a residency in the basement of the nectarine spinning hip hop, house, and techno. -Original Message- From: Tristan Watkins [mailto:phonop...@googlemail.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 31, 2011 3:46 AM To: Alexandres Lugo Cc: logic7; Denise Dalphond; 313@hyperreal.org Subject: Re: (313) Looking busy: Rephlex in Chicago and Ypsilanti Didn't Jeff Mills have a residency at the Nectarine Ballroom in the late 80s?
