Sounding great! Really looking forward to the 2 shows in October. Read Wayne Kramers autobiography. Good read, but a lot of stuff left out too.
This is the first gig in 25 years of going to gigs that I've bought a meet and greet ticket for. Signed copy of Kramers book included in the price which was reasonable.
I saw the DKT/MC5 tour back in 2005 and hope these shows are as electric as the one I caught then.
Has anyone been to any of the shows so far?
Going Saturday, also doing the meet and greet thing! AND the Detroit Cobras are opening, should be an amazing night.
Detroit Cobras would have been a great support act to have caught. Alas not in Seattle or Vancouver. Seattle does have Fitz of Depression though!
I would appreciate your take on the meet and greet. Im afraid I'll go all guitar geek on brother Wayne

Saw this show in DC two weeks ago. Wayne molded his ringers into a tight band!
Excellent, is it on a part with the 2005 shows?

I liked it better than the 2005 show I saw. Evan Dando was drunk and made a mess of things at the DC show I saw back then

I'll report back. They do say that no topic is off the table, I've been trying to think of something really good! I'm sure he'd actually love some guitar geek questions, though.

I think he really is, they worked very well together. Definitely high-grade weaving! The band was very tight, and my friend who does merch for the Cobras told me they’ve been getting better and better and have really hit their stride. I thought it was a very strong performance. So it definitely bodes well for your shows!
And to repeat, Brother Wayne is a very charismatic and interesting man.

Yes last night at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver was quite excellent. Nice guitar interplay and the band was really intense at times. I liked the 'free jazz' part as well. Missed the openers, but oh well...
Highly recommended.

Yeah Starship was really cool. Did we speak on the train after the gig by any chance? I was wearing a long sleeve Stones shirt...

"...and also memories of what a character Rob Tyner could be"
I got around to this thread a bit late, but it would be interesting to hear what he said about Tyner. Could you spare a minute or two, Brother Aquamarine?

And Monroe is the support act as well, methinks. What a lineup!
The second best frontman ever:
