Dude Loves Bootsy

Last night I saw George Clinton and his P-Funk crew down at the legendary Fillmore for a P-Funk Nation Celebration. I've seen the Funk like seven times now (several times for free) so going to see the band was not my primary draw.

However, this time George was reunited with the original bassist of P-Funk, and former James Brown bassist - Bootsy Collins! And man, Bootsy was AWESOME! He took over the mic and got funkdidiliastic, and he and George got seriously emotional up there.

And then, after a half-hour on stage, Bootsy left. Three more hours of P-Funk with NO BOOTSY. It was either ego or money or both, but either way Bootsy left waaay to early. Which is precisely why I will never again pay $60 for a concert.

(P-Funk by itself is still a great show and George Clinton was astoundingly limber for 65. But Dude loves Bootsy!)
