Ah, The Ritz. So many memories of that place. I saw Guadalcanal Diary there. Also, Dream Syndicate. Can't even tell you how many Detroit bands I saw grace the stage. Rhythm Corps, Toby Redd, Beer On The Penguin, Crossed Wire, Second Self, Tanjent Image. Passion Nouveau!!! Man, I haven't thought of that group in years!!!! Great memories! Ramonafloyd Hmmm Derek is still around from Passion Nouveau he has his on record label called soiree records and does mostly Techno now! I recorded a song on his label for him years ago! ---------------- Passion Nouveau??
