It's not Carol Marvin. This individual knows a lot about Detroit and a lot about the history of electronic music, evidenced by their quite erudite replies to various questions over the last few months. I suspect I know who it is: a friend of a well-known producer/label owner, who played at last year's event - I guarantee they will not be playing at this year's though, as the antipathy between the person (and his entourage) and quite a few Detroit figures - May being just one of 'em, has to be heard to be believed!
