that's a gross generalization.
why is prog/trance always the scapegoat when techno doesn't do well?
derrick may draws.
richie hawtin draws.
steve bug packed time square a few weeks back.
shit, when juan played necto last winter it was packed.
whoever promoted this event was completely out of touch with the crowd
that goes out in detroit. they not only failed to let people know it was
happening. they failed to cause a buzz and to make it an event that
appealed to people beyond ('hey- famous old dude playing somewhere you don;t
know')
there is an art to promoting any event, and a lot of people that throw
events don;t know it.
where was the venue
anyways?
