Sad news from California this weekend.
MC5 Bassist Michael Davis has passed away at the age of 68.
Mike was one of the first I ever heard refer to the Grande as "our palace". I have used that term ever since in trying to describe this fanciful place that I myself had never been, but where the 5 lorded over the local music scene during the ballroom's rock heyday.
Thanks for the music Michael. Rest easy.
