Detroit has always been a lightening rod for kick ass rock and roll.

From Motown, The Stooges and the MC5, to Eminem, Kid Rock and The White Stripes – nothing compares to Detroit Rock City. Drawing on Detroit's rich musical history that continues to captivate the world – the Motor City Music Conference (MC2) will bring music industry professionals, musicians, and music fans together for showcasing, networking, career development, media exposure, promotional opportunities and much more. Over 400 bands from around the world will showcase in 40+ Detroit venues over 4 nights. MC2 will also include 3 days of music industry/A&R panels, and a music and lifestyle tradeshow.

MC2 is April 20-24, 2005.
