Silly goose. I wouldn't be wearing this all day long. I would like to provide a unicorn to a person seeing unicorns so they can see a real fake unicorn.

I went ahead and booked a room at Motor City Casino. Someone told me to get my room from Fridy-Tuesday so I took her advice and did just that. It seems to be in a pretty decent location but not the best.. 2 miles to Movement and about 1 mile to most after-hours. My friend and I are flying out of Orlando to come party with ya'll and we can't wait.
I gotta go to that DirtyBird party but I did take your advice(s) and am holding off to get a ticket to James Z... Going to see what else is out there. I've opened for James before in Florida and have seen him play plenty... I just have it in my head that every DJ playing during DEMF is going to bring extra special heat fire big bombs on the decks because they're playing detroit lol.
I hope to see some old faces and meet some new ones up there! What day or party is sure to have a bunch of TAddicts at it?

Do these after parties go well into the following day or are they made to close around sunrise or some predetermined time like that?? I thought they went on for as long as they wanted to. @ WMC everything in SouthBeach closes around 6am but downtown stays open into the afternoon/evening the following day (And they can serve alcohol 24/7).. Please don't tell me these afterhour parties are going to stop the music and kick everybody out at a certain time in the morning... I guess if they do it is what is and everybody goes to house/hotel parties?? Let me know what the scoop is!

It's only 3 mi away, don't think it could be more than $15-20 (10 min ride). When I stayed at the MGM cabs were $7-10 and was about a 10 min ride as well (but half the distance). Just make sure you ask cabbies to start the meter when you get on, they try to overcharge during the busy weekend.
There's a site that estimates cab fares, I'll post it later.

i concur, cabs aren't expensive; surprisingly, they're cheap. and a 3mi walk to-from the festival wouldn't be such a smart idea- esp at night when the city becomes deserted. the day isn't so bad, i'd prob walk it but even during the day it's deserted and makes it kinda creepy..remember walking to a cvs from the hotel, and it felt like i was in the game Silent Hill.

I wouldn't say the BEST food, but def some options (from what I hear). It's the more touristy area... I hear there are a few interesting places @ Eastern Market, I def want to check it out. The MGM Grand is amazing, 2 Michael Mina restaurants and Wolfgang Puck Grille (AMAZING). And doesn't the Book Cadillac have a Michael Symon restaurant?

2.2 miles... 1 Mile to DirtyBird show Saturday night.. Can't be that bad catching a cab especially if you're splitting it with friends etc... Hit me up on face book (Josh Wickham) maybe we'll get together back at the hotel for some pre-and or-after partying.
