Parties on recently reclaimed floors of derelict buildings and in sweaty clubs are all well and good. But the overnight hours of the 24-hour Day of Music at Detroit's Max M. Fisher Music Center, guided by the knowing hand of our own Blackbx, provided a refreshing, inspiring surprise -- and a damn fine night out. Only stayed until 3 a.m., but Derrick May was still going strong in the Max's atrium, which was transformed from its already stunning self with a huge sound system, bars in the coat checks and a few dozen yards of black fabric for good measure. Fine music in the Music Box recital hall as well, a great crowd and greasy snacks to boot. A few pictures should follow shortly.
