Change the line
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=
or maybe just comment out the original (add # to the front) and add
the new one as a new line, that makes it easier to go back if you want
to.
Then run
sudo update-grub
as you have suggested.

"quiet" says not to output the text and "splash" says to show the
graphical splash screen.
