Long Lost #MC5 Remastered Footage! "Tonight" - Aylesbury Friars
Friday February 11th 1972 — Friars Aylesbury Phase Two Borough Assembly Hall, Market Square, Aylesbury, UK From the very cerebral British flyer for the gig: "The MC5 are America's heaviest underground band and are famous for really laying it down with ... a really exciting and visual show." Also on the bill was Skin Alley and Willy Barrett. Fee for the concert was 65p! A rare sighting of Fred in his Sonic Smith Suit!
