I was at that concert. A lot of the crowd were Wayne State students, thats mainly what you're seeing. There were smaller groups of we "street freaks" mixed in. I was on the right of the stage, and not in any of the video, as it only shows left of stage. There were a number of great concerts that summer, not only at WSU, but also at Goose Lake, Mi. State Fairgrounds (saw Bonzo Dog there) and the Grande Ballroom on weekends. Detroit Rocked!

[@jimray4428]

Believe it or not, this band played my high school senior prom two months before this show. It was May of 1970 and the McKeesport, Pa. Senior class booked these guys to play our prom. We had heard of them and a lot of us bought their live album before the prom , but we had no idea about what was going to happen. They came walking in around 2a.m. and no one knew what was coming. They kind of stuck out in the crowd. After a couple of warm up local bands, they took the stage around 4a.m. Loud doesn't accurately describe their sound. Wayne Kramer did Ramblin Rose to open the set and thankfully, they left Kick Out the Jams until last. As soon as Rob Tyner said motherfucker, our vice principal pulled the plug and cut off the power. Show over. Naturally, we students loved it and the Administration hated it. A very memorable evening and one I will never forget.

​@@rocknroll_jezus9233oh really? That makes quite a difference… you probably don't remember but KOTJMFs came out in early 69. Spare us the technicalities, St James is right. MC5 are the fathers, sons and holy ghosts of everything wild, and then Iggy and Ron proceeded with the ceremonies- i ' m a Sabbathead but MC5 were something else ( and so said Ian Fraser Kilmister, oh yeah…)

[@desertdan100]

@@rocknroll_jezus9233 You got to understand that this concert was farther into their career. They were underground and the beginning of Metal in America. They were around before Hendrix and Ozzy just not as well known and were Blacklisted from Radio and TV. I had older cousins and Uncles that brought this stuff around in it's bootlegged form. People used to record on Reel to Reel machines and share these tapes and re- record them and pass them on. Metal in America and Punk began in the Midwest not on the Coasts. The closest thing to it was coming out of the South. Some of the Swamp rock that was hard and driving with some metal Blues electric guitar and a fast beat. I t did not have the exposure in America like it did in Europe , especially England in that time period. It took off like wildfire on the underground through the middle of America. MC5 were the Grandfathers of early metal and Black Sabbath and Led Zepplin were God Father and Great Uncle of it. Give credit where credit is due. Ted Nugent came from the same area as did many others. Detroit birthed a lot of angry energetic hard driving musicians and groups. I am a fan of all Metal groups in one way or another. I came into it in the late 70's but my older relatives already were playing the classics. 💪

Their energy along with their[MC5]incredible desire to play the music that believed in is rarely found with bands today. The audience is not only engaged but also a necessary element that MC5 feed from to arrive at the intensity that they play at. MC5 was a force to be reckoned with, as their music is a testament to. The US Feds and State departments were very worried that MC5, along with their followers would start a revolution. Not just a great band of their era, none the less, a band that will be remembered forever.

[@djjustdave]

This blows away 90% of live music almost 50 years later.

[@originalmrjojangles]

justave dean, I agree, but would push your figure to at least 99%, and to quote Wicked Wilson Pickett, little known fact, also got his start in Detroit, "99 1/2 Just Won't Do," I'm sure "The Five," as they were affectionately known in my home town of Detroit, could also kick butt on Funky Broadway. Pathetic Rolling Stone and all the weeny San Francisco writers and DJ's panned both the MC5 and Stooges first records. Creem Magazine had balls and knew the score, Dave Marsh, Lester Bangs, and others digging it, of course. Believe it or not, I got a year's subscription and free Stooges' Fun House album for $5 around 1970. Arrived in a plain brown wrapper, which unfortunately got intercepted permanently from the mailman when my mother found a few 4-letter-words and bare titties in it while I was in class at Cerveny Junior High or Catholic Central High School. I can honestly tell you, being there in NW Detroit during those days, living near the Mouse House run by the super cool and nice immigrant parents of Stanley House, Motor City denizens could have cared less, and hardly a soul would have the left this show or an MC5 or Stooges Grande Ballroom or Ann Arbor Sunday park concert to go see the Airplane or Dead. Not even for Janis and Big Brother. But a few LA bands like The Doors and Spirit were pretty damn cool, I'll grant you that, and MANY British bands. But one SF band I would have loved to have seen live was Sly and the Family Stone. Stole the Woodstock soundtrack from all else, including Jimi, IMHO. Heavy airplay on WABX and Keener FM.

[@kathy2trips]

originalmrjojangles - You know, of course, that Rolling Stone gave good bands bad reviews because they were trying to manipulate the kiddies into listening to what Jann Wenner wanted them to hear. All you have to do is look at the RRHOF to know that this is true. I never read Rolling Stone......always, always Creem.

[@stephenkane2464]

@@originalmrjojangles incredible. It's interesting to think what the dynamic was like between music listeners back then. You physically carried your music everywhere. People were closer to the music with albums and 45s, tapes even. In other words, you knew what you were into! And with some of the bands that the MC5 performed with, like the Velvet Underground talk about the interesting crowds! Sly and Family Stone's set at woodstock is stunning I totally agree.

Natalia Putina, I love you so much for posting this, I wish we knew each other personally and were friends. A couple more things about The MC5: Many of us Detroiters didn't even know these were not the given names of few, if any, of the band members, They were almost to a man Polish, from Catholic schools in Hamtramck, Lincoln Park, Detroit area all. They had all those hard to pronounce Polish names, unless you had friends of Polish heritage, like many of us did. It's all online on a site or two. LOL - I'm Irish Catholic and Hungarian Catholic, with a good dose of Romanian Gypsy, I was told, no doubt true! Are you Russian? My only trip to the old Soviet Union, I was blown away and surprised by the street kids listening to AC/DC and the Ramones in a poor Moscow hood, while playing guitar, and painting graffiti under a bridge, skateboards too, naturally I had a bottle of vodka with me I offered to share with them.
