say hi to baby ford & zip for me!

― lfam, Friday, 16 March 2007 04:07 (eighteen years ago)

you should plan a trip up north.

― the table is the table, Friday, 16 March 2007 04:13 (eighteen years ago)

holy shit. i think i have to go to this.

― jergincito, Friday, 16 March 2007 10:16 (eighteen years ago)

i just wish there was ticket infos available so i can know what i need to save... cani pay by day? by show? what the deal.

― the table is the table, Friday, 16 March 2007 20:49 (eighteen years ago)

JEFF GREINKE??

― fies, Friday, 16 March 2007 21:01 (eighteen years ago)

and robert rich and monolake... is there an ambient revival?

― fies, Friday, 16 March 2007 21:03 (eighteen years ago)

No CC? But otherwise, DAMN!

― matt2, Friday, 16 March 2007 21:06 (eighteen years ago)

isn't it free?

― sexyDancer, Friday, 16 March 2007 21:07 (eighteen years ago)

IT'S FREE? HOLY FLURKING SCHNIT. i am so there it hurts.

― the table is the table, Friday, 16 March 2007 21:28 (eighteen years ago)

but it IS all about the after-parties, you know, old bean.

― sexyDancer, Friday, 16 March 2007 21:31 (eighteen years ago)

For some reason I thought it wasn't free anymore. Or was that just when it was Fuse-In?

― matt2, Friday, 16 March 2007 21:34 (eighteen years ago)

well duh it's about the after-parties... but that list alone is worth going, never mind after-parties.

― the table is the table, Friday, 16 March 2007 21:48 (eighteen years ago)

it's not free, it's usually something like $15/day or $40 for the whole weekend

if CC doesn't play one of those afterparties i'll be bummed. past Planet E parties were completely off the hook.

― BATTAGS, Friday, 16 March 2007 22:00 (eighteen years ago)

i kinda of doubt that he would be all, 'yknow, this year, i'm just gonna stay at home.'

― the table is the table, Friday, 16 March 2007 22:11 (eighteen years ago)

Im pretty sure it costs money. but jesus its so cheap.

i remember rolling up to it and hearing the bass from the highway. yesss. its like a rave carnival.

― emma cleveland, Saturday, 17 March 2007 20:15 (eighteen years ago)

The festival would be totally worth it at twice the price. It's not just the acts, either, it's the entire atmosphere. Where/when else (In the USA) can you walk down the street with a Dancemania t-shirt on and get multiple 'hey what's up nice t-shirts' from random strangers. Where else can you see 45 year old office ladies throwing down serious footwork with UR earrings? It's like a good-time gathering of the techno people worldwide to come and pay respects. I love the fest so much.

― sous les paves, Saturday, 17 March 2007 21:16 (eighteen years ago)

I WANT ME UR EARRINGS.

― the table is the table, Saturday, 17 March 2007 21:56 (eighteen years ago)

sous les paves, that sounds soooo good. i'm there.

― the table is the table, Saturday, 17 March 2007 22:05 (eighteen years ago)

really want to go to this somehow...but don't have the money!

― Ronan, Saturday, 17 March 2007 22:28 (eighteen years ago)

Mampi Swift featuring MC IC3

Fish out of water?

DJ Godfather

Is this as in "Player Haters.."? Best track in the world, ever.

― Iain Macdonald, Monday, 19 March 2007 13:42 (eighteen years ago)

look for a huge SF contingent -- Dirtybird/Kontrol/Diskotronik + more -- at the Shorecrest Motor Inn, about a half mile down Jefferson from Hart Plaza.

we'll be rocking out with the Technoir crew outta Pittsburgh....

some of our boys are playing -- Claude Von Stroke is on the bill...

can't wait can't wait can't wait. it'll be my 6th year at the festival (i missed 2005)....W00T!

― BATTAGS, Monday, 19 March 2007 21:22 (eighteen years ago)

Meanwhile, in everyday life in Detroit

What a fascinating/depressing/completely inspiring city. We love you Detroit.

― matt2, Tuesday, 20 March 2007 20:16 (eighteen years ago)

three weeks pass...

My tickets arrived yesterday!!!

― lou, Thursday, 12 April 2007 21:57 (eighteen years ago)

two weeks pass...

it looks like heartthrob is going to be playing an afterparty this year. he's listed in detroit on the minus page.

i think im going to buy a small house downtown instead of getting a hotel room this time. it should pay off in 2-3 years.

― faso, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 03:16 (eighteen years ago)

also a schedule of days finally went up.

― the table is the table, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 03:54 (eighteen years ago)

schedule where? I want to buy Tigers tickets to catch a game while I'm in town but I'm afraid of missing something at the fest I really wanna see.

― sous les paves, Tuesday, 1 May 2007 04:52 (eighteen years ago)

it is up on the demf website. not a 'schedule,' but at least what day people are performing on.

also, this is awesome:

Soul Skate
Line-up /
Kenny Dixon Jr [Moodyman]

This is a roller skating party! Bring your own skates or be prepared to rent them. Also, there will be free soul food while it lasts.

― the table is the table, Sunday, 6 May 2007 19:48 (eighteen years ago)

i would still really, really like to go to this. we will see.

― geeta, Monday, 7 May 2007 03:47 (eighteen years ago)

okay, finally a REAL schedule of events so you can plan...

― the table is the table, Sunday, 13 May 2007 01:49 (eighteen years ago)

my problem is that i would like to be there on saturday and monday. only baby ford & zip really hold my interest on sunday. what to do?

― the table is the table, Sunday, 13 May 2007 01:50 (eighteen years ago)

If their records are any indication, I would imagine Abe Duque and Blake Baxter would be pretty dope.

― Display Name, Sunday, 13 May 2007 02:00 (eighteen years ago)

i would start with baby ford & zip, do the boratto or duque/baxter thing for a bit, catch the beginning of mayer's set, run over to see mathew jonson for a bit, and end the night with model 500.

― Jena, Sunday, 13 May 2007 02:04 (eighteen years ago)

I live down the street.

― filthy dylan, Sunday, 13 May 2007 06:04 (eighteen years ago)

baby ford, baxter, monolake, model 500.

hmmmm. yeah.

― the table is the table, Sunday, 13 May 2007 14:22 (eighteen years ago)

fuck monolake, go see jonson.

― ☪, Sunday, 13 May 2007 14:32 (eighteen years ago)

six hours of rhythm & sound

my goddddd

― The Macallan 18 Year, Sunday, 13 May 2007 14:54 (eighteen years ago)

yeah, i am TOTALLY PUMPED. in the sense that i'm ready to fuckin swayyyyy.

― the table is the table, Monday, 14 May 2007 02:53 (eighteen years ago)

haha

― lfam, Monday, 14 May 2007 03:00 (eighteen years ago)
