Editorial Review for DTE Energy Music Theatre – by Robert Fanning
In Short
Outdoor splendor is most popular, naturally, during the summer; crowd type and size depend on the show. Novices may think the best seats are just in front of the stage, but the view on the lawn is great, too--and the lounging and camaraderie are more entertaining. Mellow folksters turn the venue formerly known as Pine Knob Music Theatre into a laidback gathering spot for aging hippies. Conversely, big rock shows crank the place up to a feverish blur of dancing and noise.

I saw Pearl Jam here in June of 2003. overall a decent venue for a concert. it is located right off I-75 so it's easy to find. there is plenty of parking. it is located in a wooded area and you can tell they spent a lot of money on the landscaping and such b/c the grounds of the venue are very clean. beer prices are a ripoff but that is true everywhere nowadays
Pros: parking, off I-75
Cons: concession prices
