Re: DEMF > wmc

dude whatttt, i don't see carl craig on there...lame....but ya, that's a heavy lineup - would love to go, but being around angry people who just got layed off from the big auto giants doesn't strike me as fun.

enjoy demf jenks !

There's nobody left in Detroit, so no need to worry. Great place for me to party. Especially that it's half hour away, with those kinda lineups. Im sure i'll be up for it. Just gotta find those KEY afterhour parties.

Re: DEMF > wmc

The DEMF, having grown up in the burbs of detroit (Eminem is from 8 mile, I'm from 15 (whole different world mind you)), is the shit. Besides a redwings or lions game, its one of the only times people flock to the city...and all types of people...kids from the burbs, the nearby colleges, canada...and even the old ladies who never left D-town who come to see what all the "boom boom racket" is. The fact that detroit is largely a shithole is what makes the DEMF so special...its one of the few times where you can imagine what a great and vibrant city detroit used to be, but also what is might eventually become. The setting is absolutely sick, right in downtown, surrounded by sky scrapers on 3 sides, the river to the other side, ambasdor bridge glowing in the distance...its just totally sweet. And Stacy Pullen always puts out a sick set. Worth the price of admission (totally free) every time.

Re: DEMF > wmc

Miami is just fucking ridiculous. WMC is fun but they fucking ass rape at the hotels, door of the club, bar, and if your not careful jibbs might ass rape you too. I think I'm with Jenks on this one as well. There's too many DJ's @ DEMF that this might be the last time any of us could ever get the chance to see play/preform live. I can't believe I'm about to say this but I think I have seen Sasha and Digweed so many times that after the show I'm not standing there shaking my head saying WTF just happened? I know times are changing and maybe it's just me getting a little older but WMC and fighting a million spring breakers who know jack shit about the music along with 50-75 entry fees and bar tabs in the 4-500 range just isn't fun to me anymore. Yes I know not all of the parties at WMC are like that but for the most part they are and I don't see it changing anytime soon if ever.

Just looking at the schedule...when it says live performance vs. DJ performance...does that mean there will be a band or something like that?

Sometimes that can be the case but more times than not it's the DJ/producer up there making stuff happen with laptops, synths, decks, samplers, etc., etc., etc., creating music live.

Re: DEMF > wmc

People can hate South Beach all they want...but at the end of the day, the place goes off

I just bought tix today for Sasha & Digweed at Mansion.

It's going to be Fear and Loathing for me down there...10 days worth

BLASPHEMY!!

i think it partly has to do with mindset. with an attitude like that no wonder you dont have a good time. that and the djs do need to pull through when it comes to events like this. there were many people shaking their heads in disbelief after s&d new years set, so they are still very capable of doing that. but id imagine if they turned out a mediocre set, i probably would have been disappointed too after all the money i spent.

with miami, you really need to plan ahead. get the hotels/tickets first. then before the show just pre drink. or just dont drink at all. good times will be had almost guaranteed.

Re: DEMF > wmc

the sick thing is that's only 55% of the lineup. the rest will be coming in a couple weeks. if any of you come to detroit for the demf, hit me up.. i've just started working for paxahau and will be working at the festival. =)

^ That is cool. Congrats. I will be there as always. Only way I will miss out is unless some crazy happens and can't make it up there. I am not sure if I will be there the whole this yr though. Maybe will see how the money situation works out.
