Here’s a post with purpose. This guy, Wayne Kramer(original member of the MC5) is coming to Harlow’s tonight to play tracks from MC5’s catalog, along with some new songs from an upcoming MC5 release.
Shockingly, the show has not sold out yet. Harlow’s looks to be the smallest venue of the 2 week tour, and tickets are available at the door. You won’t want to miss this one.
OK, to the video. This in-store was to celebrate/promote the release of The Hard Stuff, released in 95. It remains the loudest in-store I have ever attended. I had posted this before, but the camera audio was distorted- this DAT audio sounds much better, albeit without much vocal in the mix.
I had always thought that I filmed this set, but you can see my plump, dress shirt and big eyeglass wearing ass fiddling with the DAT machine at the end of the set. I guess Todd filmed it. Thanks, Todd!
Oh, and if you have read this far: if you go to the show, seek me (Shayne) out and I will buy you a beer from the bar. I have this $100 gift card that I bought to help venues while closed and I can’t seem to get rid of it.
