    As has been stated above, I don't think Detroit was ever really a big player in Rock music, but the notoriety of Motown and the KISS song gave us the reputation. Notice that just about every big name...

    What's with the new lanes on Jefferson?

    A couple weeks back I noticed a new lane format was painted on Jefferson between 375 and Chalmers. There are two lanes each way with what appears to be a right turn lane and a bike line on the edges....

    The building was to be demolished a couple years ago, they knocked down the cornice, but it's still holding on. One of the residents of the neighborhood owned it at the time, though I'm not sure the...

    It sounds like a great idea as a tourist destination, but there are already music museums in Detroit: Motown, Submerge [[Techno), the former Graystone Museum as mentioned previously, and the Kid Rock...

    I totally get where you're coming from, and I don't take for granted the fact that we live in a place where we have the freedom to say what we want without being murdered like North Korea or...

    Watching Fox 2 new over the weekend, I was kind of shocked at how unprofessional the whole enterprise seems to be. With the integration of viewer tweets and facebook comments into the broadcast as if...

    Right? That's the messed up part about this. In a major city, there should be enough things going on and enough people around not to notice something like this. But, I've been here long enough to...

    There were groups of kids all over downtown. Probably no more than 20-30 in one spot, but there probably a hundred or more in total. Very strange experience.

    I only pin one of Flint's problems on Synder - the contaminated water. That's all. I know there are myriad other issues in Flint, and I don't blame Slick Rick for any of them. Cool?

    And, I don't...

    Scott Benson has been dumb for a long time [[see drunk driving arrest, etc.)
    But, yes it seems like whomever is elected to council, the group as a whole cannot eschew the habits of the old guard....
  13. 3-Year Old Shot & Killed - Where is the outrage?

    It seems like every year there are multiple [[preventable) homicides involving innocent children and we have become desensitized to it. Children deserve better than this.

    If you're looking purely at investment potential, I don't think the Pointes are the way to go. If you're looking for nightlife and a bar scene, GP is not it. But, if you want to live by the lake and...

    That's outrageous, but completely within the reality of ya'lls boy and his administration. It's interesting to hear, and I wonder how many other potential projects were killed for the same reason....

    What a bizarre chain of events initiated from the purchase of a backpack.

    I don't think I've ever purchased an item at a store, then asked an employee "what should i do with the old one?" To err...

    Very true, but IMHO the quality of the live entertainment had gone down hill in recent years and the vibe had changed. The upstairs bar staff was almost hostile last time I was there for a show...

    I love the Lee Plaza and sincerely hope that it can be redeveloped, but I don't think this one adds up. For all of the reasons mentioned above, it just doesn't make sense economically. Additionally,...

    After watching the video and reading the account, I still have no idea what actually happened. Was it an attempted carjacking? If so, how did the would-be carjackers expect to escape with said car in...

    Very sad, it's been a great site for a long time. More disappointing is the BS that Dfunk has been going through with hack corporate digital media.

    To the OP, it's an invastion. Haven't you seen "Red Dawn?"

    Is that the correct answer?
