Had it not been for DJ ElektroSonik I wouldn't have known about this event - and It was a complete and total cluster fuck from the very beginning (we arrived about 11ish) - Watching them attempt to raise the tent, with the weight of the pouring rain weighing it down nonetheless, was entertaining. There's nothing like making the DJ's that you asked to come and work for you (and their guests, aka ME!) sit under a fucking tree while you scramble to give them shelter not only for themselves, but their equipment!
Corktown/Maiden Detroit (whoever) needs to take a queue from the Michigan Festivals and Events Association and go to a seminar or something to learn how to do things to not only be profitable - but to be family oriented and organized. There were a lot of kids there, and granted, this festival probably wasn't marketed toward kids - but it's a public place people - THINK - The stripper (I swear, do you really need to announce that she's #2 in the world at pole dancing one more time) was tacky as shit. Impressive leg muscles - I do have to say that much - but holy shit - I didn't need to see that. Oh, and don't call her a stripper... Right Nocker?
Everyone's music was fantastic, and moreso - it was a pleasure to finally meet some of you. I really enjoyed spending the day with you guys (Nocker, Saint, Aaron, of course my buddy Elektro)... Feels weird to have "known" about you for so long through this place and from friends and to finally lay eyes on you. I'll make the 1.5 hour trek down more often as long as you continue to expose me to good music! Much appreciated!
