New Vinyl Website Focuses on the Social Elements of Records and Music 0

Posted on December 16, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

Well, we made it. The vinyl record revival is in full swing. With many independent artists issuing new releases via the format and many mainstream artists following suit, it is a great place in music history. Add to this the numerous reissues of classic LP’s and the vinyl comeback is complete.

Along with the vinyl revival are new Internet web sites that cater to collectors and music lovers. One such site that has just launched is www.NYLVI.com, is social marketplace that will support independent artists, labels and record stores and will aid in the spreading of musical innovation to the global community of music lovers and record collectors.

I spoke with NYLVI co-founder Ivar Lien about the goals, ideals and values of this new, growing vinyl record community:

There are many vinyl sites on the Internet today, what will set yours apart from the others- what will make you unique?

Instead of creating distant editorials and boring recommendations, we think it’s much better to give the word to local experts, who participate in these scenes on a daily basis.”

”A second aspect we think set us a part from other services is how we emphasize the social aspects of vinyl collecting. We want to be something more than a simple marketplace. Through various features we want to include the users and enable increased interaction. We want to be a community for music and vinyl enthusiasts, a place where they can meet, share and exchange knowledge and

Tourism in metropolitan Detroit 25

Posted on November 29, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

Market overview

Tourists can ride in a Model T in Greenfield Village at The Henry Ford, a National Historic Landmark.

The metropolitan region’s tourism industry depends on drawing large crowds to positively impact the local economy. As the world’s traditional automotive center, the city hosts the annual North American International Auto Show in January, a multi-day event. Other major multi-day events which reflect the region’s culture such as the Motown Winter Blast and the Windsor-Detroit International Freedom Festival can draw super sized-crowds of hundreds of thousands to over three million people. In 2006, the four-day Motown Winter Blast drew a cold weather crowd of about 1.2 million people to Campus Martius Park area downtown. Metro Detroit is one of thirteen U.S. cities with teams from four major sports.

Besides casino gaming, the region’s leading attraction is The Henry Ford, America’s largest indoor-outdoor museum complex, a museum entertainment complex with an IMAX theater next to the Automotive Hall of Fame in Dearborn. The Detroit Institute of Arts in the cultural center downtown is another leading attraction. The Detroit Festival of the Arts in Midtown draws about 350,000 people. The Detroit Zoo in Royal Oak has the nation’s largest polar bear exhibit, the Arctic Ring of Wildlife. The zoo has a train which encircles the park. Together, The Henry Ford, the Detroit Institute of Arts, and the Zoo attract about 2,500,000 visitors annually.

Greektown in Detroit

Another automotive attraction cataloging the history of the industry is the Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills. Historic tours of the mansions of the auto barons such as Meadowbrook Hall in Rochester Hills, Edsel and Eleanor Ford House in Grosse Pointe, Henry Ford’s Fair Lane Estate in Dearborn, and the Lawrence Fisher Mansion in Detroit are available.

The city’s Greektown is a busy entertainment district. The city has evolved into a center for the major
