MC5 Japan

I added one link to the main menu on the top page. I've traveled overseas several times to see cerain gigs, and posted a report as it happened. It came to my mind recently that these reports would bury themselves in the bottom of Updates and News with all the time, money, and efforts spent over them. So, a new category was created to cover these previous reports. Sorry, a half of the reports are only in Japanese, but hope you'll enjoy graphics and pictures.

NEW
John Sinclair - Tokyo : June, 2008

Din't expect to see such a day...John Sinclair came to Tokyo for a talk session with a rock journalist Gaku Torii at Tokyo Hipsters Club. The audience was serious and had an enlightening time with John. (Sorry in Japanese only, but hope you'll enjoy the picture.)

Wayne Kramer @ The Los Angeles Original Farmers Market :
August, 2005

Saw the 1st of the 3 solo acts of Wayne Kramer which took place on the 1st/3rd/4th Friday of August, '05. (Sorry, in Japanese only.)

DKT/MC5 & Sun Ra Arkestra : February, 2005

Witnessed a launching and a landing of a Starship at Royal Festival Hall in London.

DKT/MC5 - Japan : August, 2004

DKT/MC5 played a big rock festival in Japan, which made a very first appearance of MC5 in the Far East. Big fun to share some time with the troop.

John Sinclair - Los Angeles : April, 2004

An esoteric, heart-warming event performed by John Sinclair. He returned to the U.S. from his present home in Amsterdam and had a gig backed by Wayne's band. (Sorry, in Japanese only.)

100 Club : March, 2003

The very first DKT/MC5 performance in public which was organized by partnership with Levis. It caused a significant controversy among 5 fans over justification of the event. (Sorry, in Japanese only.)

MC5/A True Testimonial : January, 2003

Screening of ATT at a film festival in extremely cold Sweden. Shared some time with the film makers (thank you Laurel, David, and Jim for your hospitality at that time!).

Adult World Tour : June, 2002

A promotional tour for Wayne's long-awaited solo album, Adult World. I "chased" the band from the first gig in L.A. through the 3rd one in Seattle. (Sorry, in Japanese only.)
