So we've been here since Wednesday, we've definitely had the time to feel what this city is about. Music and cars. The people are so proud of their heritage, it's just sad to hear what it was and what it looks like now. Although everyone you meet is optimistic about tomorrow.
Theo has been amazing......we couldn't of asked for a more accommodating and talented voice to talk about the influence of Detroit on music and the influence that the musicians have had on Detroit. Everyone has there own recollection of those days, although these days I feel Detroit is still rich in music. In our hotel alone I've chatted to George Clinton and danced at Anita Baker's mother's party.
Today is a rest day after 2 night shoots so we are heading out to see around Detroit and the suburbs and later music.
Will post more photos later.
