    Anybody staying at Shorecrest Motor Inn? Locals, am I taking my own life into my hands by doing so?

    It's not in an *awful* area (Rivertown), but I think I'm safe in saying you're the only person going to the show who's staying there. :D It's like a poor man's Red Roof Inn. Bring a sleeping bag and your own pillow because personally I wouldn't touch the sheets there.

    At least it's connected to Clique which is a pretty goddamn good breakfast spot.

    I hope they don't hold anything back for Moline. Being night 1 of a 2 nighter makes me nervous. I really hate the idea of "saving something" for the second night. It would piss me off to know that happened, like why are my tickets less valuable than someone going to Moline?

    ^^^This.

    Not to mention it's not as if the band is hitting the road right after the DET show. They'll fly into Moline the next afternoon and be well-rested.

    Sweet, let me know if you want a walking buddy after the show. I have never been stabbed before either (by another person, I have gotten myself cooking from time to time) so I have a great track record

    Anywhere between the Joe and the Ren Cen (Westin) on the riverfront is fine. Anywhere along Woodward Ave and few blocks east and west of Woodward, up to Comerica Park is fine. Even Woodward up to Midtown/Wayne State area is fine, but don't stray off of Woodward past Comerica Park.

    Here's a map: https://www.michigan.gov/documents/MDOT-State-Map-Downtown-Detroit_64063_7.pdf

    Area inside the freeway loop 10 - 75 - 375 if pretty safe. Anything inside people mover loop (dark black line labeled B is especially safe. This is where everything is anyway. Hope that helps.
