#Rob Tyner

MC5 was an American rock band formed in Lincoln Park, Michigan, in 1963. The classic lineup consisted of vocalist Rob Tyner, guitarists Wayne Kramer and Fred „Sonic“ Smith, bassist Michael Davis, and drummer Dennis Thompson. MC5 were listed by Parade as one of the best rock bands of all time and by VH1 as one of the greatest hard rock artists of all time. The band’s first three albums are regarded by many as staples of rock music, and their 1969 song „Kick Out the Jams“ is widely covered. #garagepunk #garagerock #punk #motorcity #mc5 #detroit

I’m so proud of everyone here with us in Dallas (and all of you zooming in from home with your families, friends, kids, grandmas, pets, and air guitars!!) for STEPPING UP, PLAYING FULL OUT and SHATTERING LIMITATIONS this weekend. Remember this: Stress often stems from ONE of THREE THOUGHT PATTERNS: 🤔💭 🔺1 LOSS: Fear that we’re going to lose something we already have. 🔺2 LESS: Fear that we’ll get less of something we desire. 🔺3 NEVER: Fear that we will never get something we want. The truth is, all suffering is rooted in the disease of focusing on ourselves. …And the antidote to all suffering, is LOVE. ❤️

DKT - MC5 with Mark Arm of MUDHONEY and Evan Dando of LEMONHEADS - Kick Out The Jams - Live on the Craig Kilborn Show, June 29th, 2004. DKT-MC5 was a 2003 reunion and world tour by the three surviving original members of the legendary Detroit rock band MC5: bassist Michael Davis, guitarist Wayne Kramer, and drummer Dennis Thompson. The "DKT" prefix represents their initials, acknowledging that this was not a full MC5 reunion due to the deaths of vocalist Rob Tyner and guitarist Fred "Sonic" Smith. The tour featured a rotating lineup of guest musicians to fill the roles of vocalist and second guitarist, including Mark Arm of MUDHONEY and LEMONHEADS frontman, Evan Dando.

MC5 rocking out to “Kick Out The Jams” Live on the Beat Club in 1972 This right here was MC5’s signature song, which turned out to be their rallying cry. The phrase “Kick Out The Jams” is a rallying cry that’s meant to overcome obstacles. However, guitarist Wayne Kramer has said that this isn’t a song about perseverance. He said: “We were using the expression for a long time, because we would be critical of other bands that came to Detroit that the MC5 would open for. They’d come into town with this big reputation, and then they’d get up on stage and they weren’t very good. So, we used to harass them. We’d yell at them, ‘Kick out the jams or get off the stage, motherf—ker!’ Finally, one day we said, ‘I like that expression. We should use that as the title of a song.’”⁣⁣ Along with the rest of the album, this song was recorded live at the Grande Ballroom in Detroit on October 30 and 31 (Mischief Night and Halloween), 1968. By the time of the recording, MC5 had gained a cult-like following in the Detroit area, but had not released any material. By the time the album was issued a few months later in early 1969, they had stirred up lots of controversy for their revolutionary stunts and associations: they sometimes brought unloaded rifles on stage, and their manager, John Sinclair, founded the White Panther party, devoted to upending political and cultural norms. Musically, the song had a huge influence over the Garage Rock and incoming Punk Rock movement. It was memorable for showcasing guitarists how powerful the three magic chords could be. ⁣ #Music #RockNRoll #PunkRock #GarageRock #MC5 #MichaelDavis #WayneKramer #FredSmith #DennisThompson #RobTyner

The post highlights a famous viral clip from a Tony Robbins live event, where the renowned coach demonstrates the psychological impact of unwavering "presence." In the footage, a man named Hamish is instructed to maintain intense, silent eye contact with a woman, which causes her to break into nervous laughter and become visibly flustered. Robbins uses the moment to illustrate how a man's focused attention and grounded energy can instantly shift the dynamic of an interaction, a core theme in his teachings on masculine and feminine energy. Replies are divided between viewers who find the demonstration a powerful lesson in non-verbal communication and social confidence, and critics who view the "presence" technique as overly intense or performative. The clip continues to spark debate across social platforms regarding modern dating dynamics, body language, and the influence of Robbins' high-energy seminar methods.

Tyrone Davis was born on May 4, 1938 in. Leland Mississipp in the heart of the Mississippi Delta, near the cotton fields around Greenville. Raised in humble sharecrop surroundings, he carried the rhythms of home north at fourteen, first to Michigan, then to Chicago, where he built a legendary career in soul music. Tyrone’s smooth baritone and heartfelt delivery made him the king of romantic Chicago soul. Hits like “Can I Change My Mind” (1968), “Turn Back the Hands of Time” (1970), and “Turning Point” (1975) topped the R&B charts, selling millions and earning him the R&B Foundation Pioneer Award. His music spoke of love, regret, and devotion in ways that resonated deeply. Beyond the spotlight, Tyrone stood as a quiet example of commitment. In an era when fame often led to fleeting relationships, he remained devoted to his wife Ann for over four decades—from the early 1960s until his passing in 2005—raising a family with steady love and loyalty. Described as a devoted family man despite the glamour of cars and stages, he embodied old-fashioned values of marriage and virtue when many in entertainment chose otherwise. Mississippi honors him with the Mississippi Blues Trail marker in Leland, celebrating how Delta roots shaped one of soul’s greatest voices. Though he thrived in Chicago’s clubs and studios, his life reflected the enduring strength of family and fidelity. We thank you, Tyrone, for your timeless music and for showing that true strength lies in honoring vows and living with integrity. Your legacy endures in every soulful note and every steadfast example you left behind. Video: @litwest
