The afterparties prove to be just as fun (if not MORE fun in some instances) than the actual festivla, and this year is no exception. Rather than give long winded speeches and descriptions of each event. Here are my pics for the afterparties. Keep in mind that there are several other parties going down at all times (something like 52 in all?), so if you don't like my suggestions, I defer you to the always reliable Detroit Luv Guide. Shut up.

** It should be noted that I'll be playing this party from 11:30-12:30. I'll be playing all sorts of edits, unreleased tracks from friends and some of my own stuff. I won't be playing Dorkwave style though. This will be the hybrid of disco, boogie, funk, italo and electro I herein refer to as Geistphunk. Or Sazleroogie. Or Commosco. Whatever. Shut up.
