Thanks for the great info. I went to Cass Tech HS in Detroit
and used to catch the Grand River bus right in front of the Grande Ballroom. I
was 15, to young and innocent to go to the shows, but I remember all the names
posted on the marque. To this day there is still no music to me like MC5, Frost,
(early) Bob Seger, Stooges. Anyone seen the Frost reunion shows (minus Gordy
Garris). Anyone have the 66-67 bootleg CD for Seger before he sold out and went
mainstream?

ALL Frut members are alive and kickin'and I have the most brain
cells in tact(4) of all the former Frut's. Cub Koda attention! We didn't dislike
Brownsville Station. It's just that Tony was always trying to pick up Red's
chick at gigs. Hence, Norms less than flattering remark in the CREEM interview
regarding Brownsville. Also, it must be noted we chose to become performance
artists as opposed to musical technicians.We love you man, keep up the good
work!

weeks ago in Cheboygan at the age of 80. Other than this, "Your WTAC Emergency

Now I know the exact date I saw Black Sabbath at the Michigan State Fairgrounds;
when my girldfriends & I sat with them in their limo before the show when it
started to rain! I miss those days and the music and wish there was some way to
back in time. But thanks for the memories!!!

great memories. Over the past year I have been collecting some of this great
music on cd and vinyl. Sure is a trip to listen to old Seger, Rationals, MC5,
Bossmen, Terry Knight and The Pack, ecxt.ect. I was in a band back in the mid to
late 60's and had a chance to play with some of these bands. Remember going to
Mt.Holly, Romeo Youth Center, Friday nite dances at Imlay City. Great times,
Great music, and a great site to re-live them. Keep up the great work.

banks as I once saw many of the bands at many of the venues. I was amazed that
you included the Cobra Club in Hastings as well as other "west side" events such
as Saugatuck Pop. Keep up your fine labor of love!

Hey there, Just got turned on to your site. Pretty weird
overall look but its packed full of great info so what the fuck! I'm a former
resident of Roseville. There was a Hullabaloo club there too. It was on just of
off Groesbeck Highway (M97.) When I was in high school (Roseville High) I used
to paint the band names in the front windows every week and I was also the body
painter there. It was owned by the Suber family who lost their shirts on it.
There was also a Crows Nest in St. Claire Shores at 13 mile and Jefferson in a
shopping center there. I saw the MC5 play there the night they signed their
Electra contract. Nice site. I'll check it out more in the future.

Killer web site. I really miss those days. Used to go see all
the Michigan bands at Wamplers Lake Pavillion. Me and my friends would get a
campsite at Hayes State Park, go to the pavillion and party all night, then go
back to the campsite to crash. Used to love seeing the SRC and Savage Grace
there. One of my first concerts was SRC and the Amboy Dukes at the Adrian High
School auditorium. Also used to check out the bands at the Free John Sinclair
concerts in Ann Arbor. Went to Goose Lake in 1970. When I got home my dad held
up a copy of the Detroit News that said "500 Bad Trips at Goose Lake" and asked
me if I had had one. Anyways those were good times. Really appreciate the effort
that went into this site, and reading other peoples memories of those great
times, great music. -ed

Great, great site!...and I've never even been to Detroit. What
a great scene you had up there! Surfed on in by linking from the Motor City's
Burning web page, linked there from the Jeep Holland tribute page. I knew Jeep
as a promo person in Boston when I lived up there and worked in a record store
during the mid 70's. In New York, I heard the MC5's record in early '69 played
on WBAI's Radio Unnameable. I went right out and bought it. I love Gary
Grimshaw's posters and one of Cream's classic concerts that circulates among
collectors was the one in the Grande Ballroom. Skoolkids Records had a wide
reputation since I'd heard of them in Boston. Again, great site, I love how
detailed it is! Keep up the good work! - Ed

the Grande by friends in late '69. I'd like to know if there is more information
available about the Goose Lake Music Festival. I attended and still have the
flyer, comic book information piece and decal. Great event but there is little
information available. My memory of the event is slightly hazy...Bob

Felix P., Bob Seger and his groups, Alice Cooper, Alan Nathanson (Everlon
Nevermore), Scratch (well known fun Detroit person) Russ Gibb, Rod Stewart,(See
him occasionally in Palm Beach where I live) Keith Emmerson, Eric Burdon, and
many others. Now believe it or not I am a prominent attorney in Palm Beach. If
any one remembers me send me an E-mail. Check my picture at www.jgreenwald.com

1969, opening up for Spirit and Jethro Tull. There was no artwork for that
weekend's lineup of events. I have an old photo of Jethro Tull 'practicing' in
the empty ballroom, while we were loading our equipment in; Mick Abrams was

A mammoth undertaking, and a most worthwhile one at that. A few
omissions (the Shy Guys, Janie Coe) and a few chronological errors ("Persecution
Smith" is January 1967). But this is the sort of project that never really ends,
since Michigan turned out such an enormous amount of great rock and roll at the
time. Keep us posted!

I have been looking for this kind of chronicle of the Detroit
shows, dates and the bands that played. These shows were just before I was able
to get out and listen to the Motor City Music and am glad to see all this
information being put together. My neighbor was involved with All The Lonely
People and the guys in the neighborhood were big fans of the Frost & Ted
Nugent. I remember songs like 2+2, Mystery Man, Journey to the Center of the
Mind, Hey Little Girl, 96 Tears, & others being on the radio. WABX had just
got started and it was summertime.
