I realize there's a lot of disappointment about the lineup so far, but I look at it this way. There's going to be about six dozen DJs with slots at this thing. *Some* of them are people you may not have seen who will impress -- think of some of those DJs and live performances in the Dutch tent last year. The festival is going into its seventh year, and the novelty has long since worn off. It's not the ideal place for DJs and live performers to do their best, as many a struggling performance on the main stage has shown (which is why I'm especially pleased when our homies like AO, Plaslaiko, Sean Deason and Fab have rocked the house there).
It's gonna be fun, enjoy it for what it is. Detroit is a total mess, thousands of people are losing their jobs, the city may even go into receivership this year. Be thankful there is even a festival, at this point, wish Paxahau well and tell 'em not to forget where they come from, and let the good times roll. fh ----------------- >On Friday, April 14th 2006 at 5:34 PM, "Thomas D.
