For the fourth episode of There Is No Planet Earth Stories, I'm joined by guest Adriel Thornton representing stories from Detroit. We discuss a range of topics from his 30+ years of experience as a rave promoter, event and festival producer. Other highlights include the origins of the first raves he threw at 1515 Broadway, and his core residents : Robert Hood, Claude Young, and Dan Bell. Additionally, we discuss iconic Detroit venues: Packard Plant, Saint Andrews/The Shelter, 1217 Griswold, Motor, and his role as Detroit's First Independent Nightlife Ambassador.
