Who said raves were dead? Certainly not the thousands of people who will pack into the Hart Plaza at The Riverfront in Detroit on May 26, 27, and 28 for Movement 07, Detroit's electronic music festival. The lineup includes Detroit's own Moodymann, Juan Atkins and Jeff Mills.
Where To Stay:
Various bed & breakfasts like the Corktown Inn and the Windsor Street Inn might not appreciate you stumbling through the doors at 4 a.m., covered in fluorescent paint and glitter. Stick with the affordable Milner Hotel or the Shorecrest Motor Inn.
Where To Eat:
Greektown, of course. Head to the strip of restaurants on Monroe Street, behind the casino. Though some of the buildings have seen better days, anyplace that has Parthenon or Pegasus in the name is sure to satiate your hunger for a quick souvlaki. On Monroe St., you can also stop by the Second Baptist Church to repent for your earlier sins. It's one of the more aesthetically pleasing buildings in the area.
Where To Lose Your Money:
If the MotorCity or Greektown casinos doesn't get every cent, cross the Detroit River to Canada on the Detroit-Windsor Truck Ferry. Play a few rounds of blackjack at Casino Windsor while still feeling the drug-induced delusions of grandeur. We're only saying you can do this, not that you should.
