Ghostly International's next event, Victoria Dark happens this Saturday at the legendary Shelter, under St. Andrew's Hall in Detroit. Performing are Ghostly artists Matthew Dear, Kill Memory Crash [live] and Tad Mullinix, plus the talented and charming Mike Servito and a handful of special guests including Bpitch Control's Kero. All for a mere ten bucks.

UPDATE: Sam Valenti IV graced the cover of the Metro Times this past week. Read the rather detailed article about the history and future of the music industry phenomenon known as Ghostly International here.

Still no word on exactly why Control IV was prematurely shut down last Wednesday night, but you can read Rich's statement on m-nus.com. There is also a four and a half hour video stream of the evening available. Not quite like being there... Skip ahead to about 4:00 to see Sven Vaeth working up to an epic frenzy just before the cops bust in.

Dublin, by the way, was a much needed change of pace and scenery. The Irish know how to live. Imagination's Guinness museum is an outstanding example of good experience design, complete with smell-o-vision and a very swanky circular glass lounge on top of the old brewery. Thanks to Jon O and Caitlin Doyle for all the good tips. No Bono sightings, but U2 is pretty inescapable in Temple Bar pubs. We did see Sinead hanging out in a gallery.
