“We hadn’t heard about the MC5 really, until we hit the Midwest…we picked up the Stooges for a whole bunch of shows…when we got to Detroit and saw the MC5 for the first time at the Grande, I remember telling Danny, two minutes after the MC5 began their set that we may as well hang it up because we thought we were hot shit but…ha ha ha! So we came back to San Francisco and turned into a Detroit type band, we were so influenced by the energy of these guys. I immediately got a Marshall.” Cyril Jordan
