The 2011 Dally will proudly be bringing back the electronic music stage – in a way that greatly takes our neighbors into consideration. The stage, provided in part by Source Audio and New Center Park, will be smaller than past years. We have been working with Source Audio to configure a stage that will sound crisp and clear to Dallyers, and at the same time will show volumes of respect for our neighbors (who allow the Dally to happen year after year)! The electronic stage will be in a new spot, feature turntables and room for other instrument set up, the speakers will give technophiles a new, surround sound experience. The stage will be live from 12 to 10, followed by an official outdoor Dally after party … details TBD! We hope this year we can show everyone that we love both our neighbors as well as our dedicated techno fans.

THE GREENEST FESTIVAL IN DETROIT – 2011
The North Cass Community Union is working with Recycle Here and the body-power of the Fourth Street Farm to make the Dally in the Alley the greenest festival in Detroit. This year all of our food vendors are required to use bio-degradable packaging that, once “trashed”, will be sorted by Fourth Street Farm members, and then recycled at Recycle Here. There will be compost boxes available for leftover food scarps, which will be then used at the Farm. Fourth Street Farm & Recycle Here are taking the initiative to make the Dally in the Alley 2011 the “cleanest festival in the city.” This project will require over 100+ volunteers and will need the cooperation of the community in order to be successful. There will be recycling stations set up throughout the festival and volunteers working to keep the festival grounds clean.
VOLUNTEERS
We are looking for volunteers to help the Dally set up in the morning and take down in the evening. If you are interested in helping out please visit our volunteer page and fill out yr info. If you are more flexible than that we have on the page, please leave a note in “other”! We will have a volunteer meeting as well as a pot-luck before the Dally. We look forward to hearing from you!
MUSICIANS
Load in for artists is one hour before your slot directly behind the stage. There is no backline or extra amps or drums or turntables so bring everything you may need. Meet with the stage manager and they will help you. Go team!
