| 4/8/71 issue. When ads for the original Ungano's ceased, these ads appeared. I have no idea if this club was affiliated with Ungano's, but I couldn't help noticing the "best wishes" note at the bottom. |

Check out the bill at The Ritz for September 25, 1971, in the September 23 issue: Bloodrock/Mandrill/MC5. Boy, that would cover the bases, wouldn't it?
I'm sure the fan bases of all three groups got along well, too, as they enjoyed the warm Summer breeze of the Island of Staten. Kumbaya.
In the Crawdaddy ad from the 04/08/71 issue: The band Chelsea (listed as "Decca Recording Artists") was a band Peter Criss was at that time. A bit more info on their LP can be found here:

I attended the 9/25/71 show. My friends and I were there to see the MC5, whose East Coast appearances were quite rare by then (they were never easy to catch on this coast). Bloodrock cancelled, so Mandrill headlined, which finds me mildly shaking my head even now. Unfortunately, the Five were well into their downward spiral by this time, and their set was, sorry to say, rather indifferent and perfunctory save the occasional flash of stagecraft: Wayne Kramer's leaps, spins and splits come to mind. Actually, I'm making their performance sound more energetic than it actually was. But I WAS there.
