Re: Demf 08

stay at the casino in widsor.. that is best place to stay around here..

windsor looks so nice, especially when you turn around and look at detroit, then look back at windsor.

Re: Demf 08

If you want to stay at a casino, there's also the MGM, Motor city and Greektown casino's in detroit. Greek town is the closest, within walking distance I believe.

There are some pretty cool towns outside of detroit as well if you want to find a cheaper hotel room. These towns all have a pretty great bar scene with lots of "traditional" live music. Check out Royal Oak and Ferndale. Both these cites are on Woodward Blvd, which is the main road into the heart of Detroit.

Re: Demf 08

being within walking distance from hart plaza is key, and being right across the street is extra nice.

festival from 12-12, it's nice to have the option to go in and out if necessary.

Any other people going that haven't posted on this thread?

Re: Demf 08

Unless I'm mistaken, this is happening at some point on the first day of DEMF in St. Andrews Hall... Minus's big 10 year anniversary event. This is the only US show.

http://www.contakt-events.com/

I've heard about this on other boards, and they're marketing the hell out of this... There's this whole schtick with this cube which if you touch you get in the running to win some expensive music equipment...some special membership card with some microchip in it that they're pushing for purchase...a ton of big name sponsors...I don't even know all the details.

Featuring specially crafted effects, lighting, etc. and unique collaborative performances involving Magda, Troy Pierce, Marc Houle, Gaiser, Heartthrob and some other special guests.

Well, this explains the relative dearth of Minus presence at DEMF this year...
