Met Mike once , he took the time to really sit and talk. Corresponded with him a little , before the DTK/MC5 project took off. Super nice guy. No bullshit about him.
I saw Destroy All Monsters at Crest-Lounge in Hamtramck..must have been 1977 or so.they were loud!! funny enough, I met Mike Davis when we were both living in Tucson, AZ. back in 1988, he was a gentleman..nice guy- was still playing bass- we almost hooked up a band together ( no-lie ) but he thought I was too flash-heavy metal at the time ( which I was ) so, he joined up with 2 guys I knew- guitarists- walter white and Cameron Wesly ( from sure-shot productions) they had a short lived band called- The False Idols…of course I went to thier gig at Mudbugs in Tucson. just a bit of my personal rock and roll history. Met Rob Tyner once at the Detroit Zoo, he was a nice guy also-we talked a bit, I wish these guys heavenly peace- R.I.P. might aswell add this- I also met Wayne Kramer shortly after his prison release at Nikki's lounge on E. 6 Mile rd. he was kinda a wise-guy, had a bit of a I just got outta prison chip on his shoulder… maybe I better start a MC-5 Tribue band?
Michael says it here on Rob & Fred that he like to see them again.. Well Now them 3 are together now Jamming in Heaven!! It is hard to believe Rob, Fred & now Mike are not with us anymore.. The #1 band I wish I could of seen Live!! RIP Rob, Fred & Mike.. Hopefully I'll see u guys in Heaven someday : )
along with the who,the yardbirds,black sabbath,led zeppelin,cream,jimi hendrix,amboy dukes/ted nugent and the stooges.the mc5 were the forces of nature.they're definitely the forefathers of punk rock,heavy metal and hardcore.whether they take the credit or not! i mean i would! who wouldn't? the motor city motherfuckin' 5! r.i.p. rob tyner,fred 'sonic' smith and michael davis.keep kickin' out the jams! bless y'all!
Mike was a great guy and a great friend. He was always happy to see me and a pleasure to work with and play with. I will always miss him.
The MC5 were ahead of their time....
