The t-shirts for the Area 1 festival don't even list any of 
the Detroit DJs names. They lump them all together under 
Innovators. A bit of a scam imo as anybody who doesn't 
already know about Juan, Derrick, and Kevin isn't likely to 
have a clue as to who the "innovators" are. So there goes 
the support for Detroit really. The website wouldn't 
announce who would be DJing or when. I went to the Columbia 
MD show, and due to traffic, I got to dance outside the side
tent exit for the last 10mins of Juan Atkins's set. 
Couldn't get in cause people were crowding at the entrance 
for Paul O. Well, at least outkast was fun. It really makes 
my skin crawl to think that for so many people, especially 
in the United States, Moby IS techno. I actually watched the
first 15 minutes of his set from up close--Moby ran around 
jumped on his korg triton keyboard more than he pretended 
to play it, and in his own words "masturbated" with a heavy 
metal guitar solo. He was arrogant and shameless, musically 
moronic and completely devoid of funk. I used to to think 
that he was kinda harmless--I don't believe that anymore.
