Satan (eek!) DEMF 10 yr HYPE & INFO Thread !

DEMF was INSANE last year. This year I expect the madness to double cuz it is the 10 year anniversary.


So yeah - I am starting this because the COR (majority of DEMF party goers last year) have started talking about it and a majority of us have our main hotel.

We are trying to do a "TA hotel" for you guys that want to join along. We are staying at the Rennaisance Marriot (it is literally right next to the venue) .

You have the luxury to go in and out as you please (no using dirty port-o-potties) and at night when it gets cool you can grab your jacket upstairs.

I am staying there Sat & Sun.. I figure I will do a cheap priceline hotel for Monday because I just need a place to hold my bags & shower before I leave.

HYPE!! Soooooooooo much fun. A few NE TA's were out in full effect.

Hope more come along this year!

For those that have never been-

Detroit is a GHOST TOWN that weekend. It's just a working city so the Weekend (day time) is pretty dead.

You kinda want to be as close to the venue as possible and try not to book a hotel in Windsor Canada - Crossing the border is not wort the hassle just for a cheap hotel.


So.. yeah - Not much transportation so definitely want to be walking distance from the festival and *some* of the after parties.



This is the view from jenny's room last year.

You waste no time! Haha

I didn't know it was their 10 year . At The Bunker on New Year's Eve I had a chat with a girl who's been to every single DEMF except the first one . Will probably begin booking buses/flights/hotel sometime in late February after making the move to Bk. Will probably book in that hotel as well (or else in the GM building). The hotel we stayed in last year was too TOO far away, especially in an eerie city like Detroit. Can't imagine what the lineup will be like this year


Posted by MeLLyMeL on Jan-12-2009 19:15:

Well the sooner the better (especially since I am also doing WMC)


This way the TA's can be even closer together!!

Yeah dude - last year was the 9th annual.. I was like "o man.. next year should be massive for 10 year". I really do hope they do something biggER! Not missing it at all!


If u stay - 3 nights might be too much money but atleast stay for the main first 2 nights. Those are the most fun days anyways.

Oh and no passing out for after parties :lol @ jay and I texting while u ZzzZzz:

edit - off topic.. Blake this weekend is the museum party!!!!! GOO GOO GO!

memorial day weekend sat-mon! may 23-25

You don't have to take any days off from work

Here's Deadmau5 spinning last year.. It's all about the Daft Punk kid here lol




You know I uploaded a bunch of DEMF vids in May of last year but never added the info for any of them to be posted until just now lmao! If I had to guess I'd say this vid is Magda or Richie

The bass that drops at 30 secs is ridiculous. I'll probably have to get a new camera for DEMF 09


Posted by MeLLyMeL on Jan-12-2009 21:48:

I love the Daft Punk kid!

Beatport stage was hot fiyah last year!!!!!! Main stage too - DBX totally killed it with his live spooky shit.

Omg. Demf is a crazy experience! Can't wait for round 2!





oo and if I had to guess- the last vid should be Hawtin.. Magda was a snooze fuking fest last year.

ooh edit- Fuk.. if u guys want a true underground madness party - anything @ Berts On Broadway venue.

That is THE absolute sketch of the sketchiest venue-filled people.

I pray pray pray VOLATL does their party again. Adultnapper was ridic there!

I second that comment....even though Berts on Broadway had a sketchy vibe...I had a great time there...Electrical wires hanging from the ceiling and the cops outside def. completed the Detroit feel...I'm supped for Round 2 as well Mel...I gotta make sure i dont' spend too much in Miami in march

fri - tues for me

I'm trying to stay at the Courtyard again, but it's not showing up on Marriott's site

much prefer it over the Renaissance, it's just as close, but without the hassle of trying to navigate your way through the three towers, shopping mall, and 5 billion separate elevators of the RenCen, which can be particularly frustrating after being up for 36 hours

Wusup Reuben...stayed there as well last year and have to agree that its a better than the Renaissance....plus alot of djs stayed in that hotel too...if you get a room reservation there soon...hit me up...

I would maybe be interested in going for the long weekend. I have never been so it would be nice to change things up and get out of town...


Posted by sinisterbeats on Jan-13-2009 15:49:

Mutek>Demf.

I've never been to Mutek, and would like to check it out, but it's the week directly after DEMF and super expensive so I think I will be missing it again this year... can't be AWOL from work for that long

But I think as far as pure awesome for your buck, DEMF uber alles


Posted by sot on Jan-13-2009 16:58:

definitely a possiblity for me

i'm a demf virgin too, so looking forward to the crazyness that goes down in d-town.


Posted by beema on Jan-13-2009 17:23:

so my friend aparently called the Courtyard and they said they are completely booked that weekend.
WTF

I booked it in freakin MARCH last year and it still had tons of rooms.

either something else is going on that weekend as well, or DEMF is fuckin blowing up with obnoxious scenesters this year

I'm getting concerned now...

+1 I'd like to check out Mutek but DEMF's 10yr overrides anything else this year.

Jeez wtf! I was looking forward to staying there. So much more of a trek getting in and out of the GM building, though their rooms are pretty pretty dope..


Posted by rudeflame on Jan-13-2009 18:23:

I'm in!! Sat - Tue!!


Posted by beema on Jan-13-2009 18:33:

I'm just getting a room at the RenCen now to be safe
$159.85 a night incl. taxes

maybe Paxahau just bought out the entire Courtyard for themselves
lol

sux cause internet at the courtyard was free


Posted by echoform on Jan-13-2009 19:07:

so.. demf is totally worth every minute/penny.. everyone should go this year..


Posted by jonnypmo on Jan-13-2009 22:33:

hotels are booked already?...shit.
time to get my plans in order!


Posted by Pseudo Society on Jan-13-2009 22:40:

No fucking way i'm missing it this year, even if I go alone. DEMF never disappoints.


Posted by MeLLyMeL on Jan-14-2009 14:25:

Yay! Now u guys can come on over to Ren Cen.

It would make sense that pahaxu booked that hotel. Demf hype doesn't really start this early.

Anyways - this festival is def fuking pretty cheap and sooo much fun.

I literally planned it 4-6 weeks before the festival and was able to pay for it all and for 2 ppl!


Def looking forward to meeting a few new TA's .. I think I already know the majority of the demf gang from last year.
