The first memoir by Wayne Kramer, legendary guitarist and cofounder of quintessential Detroit proto-punk legends The MC5 "Voyeuristically dramatic." -THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEWIn January 1969, before the world heard a note of their music, the MC5 was on the cover of Rolling Stone. Led by legendary guitarist Wayne Kramer, the band was a reflection of the times: exciting, sexy, violent, chaotic, and even out of control. The missing link between free jazz and punk rock, the MC5 toured the country, played alongside music legends, and had a rabid following, their music acting as the soundtrack to the blossoming blue collar youth movement. Kramer wanted to redefine what a rock 'n' roll group was capable of, and though there was power in reaching for that, it was also a recipe for personal and professional disaster. The band recorded three major label albums but, by 1972-it was all over. Kramer's story is (literally) a revolutionary one, but it's also the deeply personal struggle of an addict and an artist, a rebel with a great tale to tell. From the glory days of Detroit to the junk-sick streets of the East Village, from Key West to Nashville and sunny L.A., in and out of prison and on and off of drugs, Kramer's is the classic journeyman narrative, but with a twist: he's here to remind us that revolution is always an option.

Buy these immediately!!!!!
Size: 3X, Color: (001) Black / / White
I was so happy to find a name brand pair of sweatpants in my size. When I ordered them, I thought I shouldn’t have wasted my money as I would probably have to return them. I was SO IMPRESSED!!! I tried them on and they fit like a glove. A little room to spare but I was so happy to have a nice pair of sweatpants. They are so comfy and warm. I got them on sale and they were a steal. I would have paid so much more buying them online or at a store. Thank you for having bigger sizes and clothes that are true to size. I love the way they look on me and fit!!! My new favorite pair of sweatpants and I even bought another pair. I now have two pairs in black. The sweatpants kept me warm on a cold day outside and just comfy enough without being too warm inside. The weight of the sweatpants is perfect.

Delayed delivery otherwise ok
Size: Large, Color: (025) Castlerock Light Heather / / White
Seems of good quality so far. Very comfortable. Fits well and doesn't look baggy. Took away a star because it was delivered over a month after purchase

Warm and cozy for winter
Size: X-Small, Color: Black (002)/White
I. Love. These. Pants.
I have them in three colors and I feel like I live in them during these midwest winters. They are cozy and comfy for around the house, but are totally cute enough to wear out and don't feel like typical sweat pants or pajamas like some joggers can. They are warm and snuggly inside, which I like, and have held up really well after several washes. I would say they run a little small, so consider sizing up unless you like a snugger fit. I am usually between an XS and Small and went with XS on my orders. They are slightly loose but not baggy. They also are not super long, mine hit me near the top of my ankle and I'm 5'4". It doesn't bother me, but I do find myself pulling them down at the ankle when I get out of the car or stand up from the couch, because they just seem a little high. For a comfy, warm, casual but stylish athletic type winter pant (exactly what I was after)... this is it.

They fit perfect and are super comfy
Size: Large, Color: (001) Black / / White
Very soft and comfy! They are not the thickest to wear during a brutal winter, but they are warm. These are true to size (as recommended by my Amazon account). I loved these pants so much that I got me two more. They look great!

High quality, good fit
Size: XX-Large, Color: (001) Black / / White
These fit perfectly, not super baggy and lose but definitely not tight. I have larger knees so sometimes tapered legs are too tight on my knees but these are perfect. Waistband is perfect. Thickness is not too hot or too cold. Soft and breathable.
