The Mrs. and I are off to Lake Michigan for a much needed vacation this weekend, but those sticking around the Detroit area have a wealth of elektrotabulous events to choose from:

Tonight our good friend Traxx will be performing with his band The Dirty Criminals (Gigolo Records) at Oslo on Woodward Ave. Info at Soft Curls.

Saturday night is a double feast. First off is the triumphant homecoming for road-weary but charged-up Ghostly International at The Magic Stick. Performing live will be Matthew Dear, Dabrye and Midwest Product, with SV4 manning the turntables. $12, 18+, doors at 9PM. Plus there will be art and video from Michael Segal, Julie Meitz (spinning girl) and more.

Also Saturday is the Day of Music at The Max (AKA Orchestra Hall). Free, all ages, 24-hours, cash bar with proper ID. The overnight segment (starting at midnight) features Derrick May in the Atrium and a special electronic section programmed by our own Liz Copeland in the Music Box: featuring Perspects, DJ Minx, Strand, Ryan Elliot, Liz herself and a special yoga set from Clark Warner. Info and schedule here. We hear there will be breakfast too! NOT to be missed.

You know I would definitely be at both.
