]]>This is the first Annual House Dance Conference in Detroit ..&let me be the first one to tell ya, It isn’t everyday that something like this comes to Michigan.
We had a great turnout and from what I could see, everyone had a great time ..and that’s really what matter’s right? Right. You can catch me in there at exactly the 2minute mark. Shout to Hardcore Detroit, Brian “Footwork” Green, Jimbo, Gehrik Mohr, and everyone else who had a hand in putting this together in any way.

It’s that time of year again, Detroit Fashion Week is officially underway. I was Fashionably tardy to the opening night at the Black Finn Restaurant & Saloon ..but I still managed to catch a bit of the crowd.
William Malcolm & Brian Heath.
I got a chance to sit down with Brian Heath [2nd from the left] who is the head visionary of Detroit Fashion Week and talk about the week’s upcoming events , as well as the sponsors for this year ..seems things are progressing quite nicely. He talked about how he’s stepping everything up tremendously this year, which means that the designers as well as their models will have to be on their A-Game.
Sad but true, this is one of the few and proud events that give Michigan Based designers a chance to showcase their lines with such magnitude ..so many props to Brian Heath for bringing this whole thing together, and supplying the community with a quality event list year after year.
Angela Mcbride of Peace.Love.Spandex with @zzscloset
Everyone’s excited, as well they should be!
See you at the shows!

Just this last week I had the opportunity and the pleasure of heading out to The Detroit Symphony Orchestra Hall for the much awaited Distant Worlds Music From Final Fantasy Concert.. well when I say much awaited, I mean for some I’m sure.. I missed it the last time it was around these parts and actually had no idea that they had plans of coming back to lil’ ol Michigan. Luckily, Facebook advertising was useful and accurate for once and brought it to my and a few others attention whom had actually already bought tickets..
The selection was surprisingly rounded, to be honest I was expecting something along the lines of:
Main Theme, Eyes On Me, Chocobo Theme, Melodies of Life, One Winged Angel, etc.
..And though one or 2 of those were actually played, they also pulled songs like Theme Of Love, Vammo’Alla Flamenco, and Bombing Mission from the opening of Final Fantasy VII out of their hats.
In the end due to lack of time Conductor Arnie Roth took a vocal poll of which would be the last song; Terra’s Theme or One Winged Angel. Regretfully [though expectantly] everyone chose One Winged Angel, which we’d all already heard a full orchestral version of. Oh Well! ..Overall it was dope! An enjoyable concert for anyone who has ever been a fan of the series..though I was a little disappointed that there weren’t more songs from Final Fantasy VI, which is one of the most musically sound games in my opinion..to my understanding the repertoire is always changing.
Maybe Next Time!
If you have the means, I highly recommend anyone who calls themselves a fan Final Fantasy not to miss this concert!
Peep the Website to find out if Distant Worlds is coming to a town near you Here!

The N.E.R.D Show at Wayne State was sick.
It was a free show ..so people were just piling in by the dozens.. Craziness!
People, people, people..
G.O.O.D Music Artist Big Sean also performed..
I wasn’t dancin’ too much that day but you know me..
I can smell a circle from a mile away.. A couple cats were gettin’ on the Good Foot..
I never took a whole lot of time out to learn Krumping.. so I love seeing people krump.
I respect it.. it’s a powerful dance, and some people get pretty creative.. Props!
As N.E.R.D hit the stage everybody went nuts..
And before you knew it.. the crowd surfers were everywhere..
..and when I say everywhere I mean mostly on the ground. Even after Pharrell’s heartfelt speech about all of the crowd surfers being as safe as possible. Everybody Nose that once you’re in the air, you’re in the hands of the people.. Oh well, it’s all in good fun.. and no one ended up getting hurt..
..Well, no one except my glasses..
which ended up getting destroyed in the midst of the crowd.
To have so many people hang on to everything you do..
..to stand at the edge of the stage and serenade the crowd.
Has to be an amazing feeling!
I love when good things happen in lil’ Michigan.

Last friday I hit Coaches in Downtown Detroit for The Bhangra Fusion Party. I’m no master [yet] so correct me if I’m wrong, but from what I understand.. Bhangra is a form of music and dance that originated from the Punjab region of India.
My mans was killin it, I gotta get one of those drums!
I love all forms of dance, so it’s cool to see these guys get down in the way they know how..all I can say is be very afraid..I did my fair share of observation at this last party, so I think at the next one I might be in the circle killin’ it!
Ladies in the house..
300+ folks came out, that’s whats up!
If you didn’t make it out.. I wouldn’t recommend missing the next one..
