I didn't hear a word about this, nor read anything in the papers. Did this event happen a few weeks ago and slip under the radar? I had a blast at last year's event. Having not been an avid reader of Metro Times or Real Detroit over the past year, perhaps I simply missed it?

Must have been an old publication because it has Proof listed as one of the acts. Would be hard to pull that one off.

In my off-hours, I do a Proof cover act.

That is an "off color" joke if I ever heard one.

Proof is listed as a 2005 act, not 2006. that said, i don't recall hearing anything about one this year. I'd assume it died an early death, and the web page was just left abandoned.

I thought this was a success the first time around, what happened?

The timing got moved this year, and then never got back on track. My understanding is that Paxahau (DEMF folks + All around techno promoters) has an interest in reviving this next year.

I talked to Dana Forrester, one of last year's directors, and she said they were unable to get enough sponsorships/cash to put it on this year. It was pushed back from April because so many sponsors put all their cash into the Super Bowl, and they'd hoped to get it going in September, but no luck.

Well, it has been a busy year. I can understand taking on year off, though hope it makes a come back next year, as it was a smashing success I thought.
