Michael Davis-bass, Wayne Kramer-guitar, Fred ‘sonic’
Smith-guitar, Dennis Thompson-drums, and Rob Tyner-vocals
are the MC5. Together, they were the hardcore of late-60s
musical revolution in the American Midwest.
In the fall of 1965, they create an explosive electric
music that will put them in the forefront of the radical
scene in their native Detroit. They’re backed-up by an
artist’s collective later called Trans Love Energies, and
quickly become its symbolic figurehead. They’re the
embodiment of an extravagant group, subversive and totally
hip!
By 1966, they’ve become the resident band in the Grande
Ballroom in Detroit, a former 30s dance hall where, every
weekend, hundreds of kids live the MC5 experience.
Unforgettable.
Brothers and Sisters! I wanna see a sea of hands out there! Let me see a sea of hands! I want everybody to kick up some noise! I wanna hear some revolution out there, brothers! I wanna hear a little revolution! Brothers and sisters: the time has come for each and every one of you to decide whether you are gonna be the problem, or whether you are gonna be the solution. [That's right!] You must choose, brothers! You must choose! It takes five seconds! Five seconds of decision! Five seconds to realize your purpose here on the planet! It takes five seconds to realize that it's time to move! It's time to get down with it! Brothers, it's time to testify and I want to know: are you ready to testify? Are you ready?! I give you a testimonial: The MC5!!!!
