Highlights on the bill:
Clyde Stubblefield (drums), Jab'O Starks (drums), Johnny Griggs (perc), Fred Wesley (trmb), Danny Ray (MC), Vicki Anderson (vocals). James Brown impersonator Tony Wilson will share the lead vocals with JB's daughter Venisha Brown. It seems like Chuck D. will be on the show as well, with Public Enemy's bass player Brian Hardgroove. | |

Thu May-1 Philadelphia, PA Electric Factory Fri May-2 Baltimore, MD Rams Head Tavern Sat May-3 New York, NY The Fillmore at Irving Plaza MORE DATES TO BE ADDED SOON http://www.bootsycollins....?newsId=74 I spoke with Patti this morning and there may be an issue with the site that they're looking into. Here's another source that's has a similar list of dates. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Bootzilla Productions Presents: "A Tribute to the Godfather of Soul" Tour 
SUMMER TOUR Bootzilla Productions Presents: "A Tribute to the Godfather of Soul": Bootsy Collins joined the James Brown band at a ripe old age of 17.The Godfather had no mercy and quickly showed him how to play on the One, Then from there he let Bootsy do his thang, that's right, as long as it was James Brown Tight he could play all night. Now Bootsy and Original JB's Rhythm section: Catfish Collins, Guitar, Jabo(on the One)Starks and Clyde (the funky drummer) Stubblefield, on Drums, with Johnny (theAfrikan Groove-ulator) Griggs, and Bobby Byrd's son Bart Anderson Byrd, will sit in for Bobby Byrd on Organ. Tony Wilson, who Mr. Brown himself, acknowledged him as the "Young James Brown" will sing, will prance and dance while checking out The Hot Pants! Bobby Byrd Band featuring: Mrs. Vicky Anderson Byrd, who was one of the first Kings Queens to go solo as a James Brown Productions Artist, along with her sons and daughters will remind you why Bobby Byrd said, "I know you got Soul, if you didn't you wouldn't be in Here!" Escapism Band, put together by Brian Hardgroove the Bass player for Public Enemy, will make it Funky, along with a lot of other JB Classic's. Now Venisha Brown ,the daughter of James Brown, who not only looks exactly Like him, she also dances just like him, but she got the swerves and the curves that Papa didn't take no mess, didn't have. Freekbass, with the quake of his Mutronic onslaught of his own Bootsy style Bass. He will definitely finger funk up the place. Zion Planet 10, is our youngest at 14 years old, but has got the talent and wisdom of a young Stevie-No-Wonder he's on the JB-Tribute tour with his bad self. ICandi, will blow your mind with there young vocalist Ms. Candice, who you will fall in love with her as an artist, a person, and a real classy women no doubt. She's got her Brother's that got the Rap and will make sure you get up Offa that Thang Djizzle one of a kind, young Gurley killer with his mind and lyrical content that will surely represent, his generation and be the greatest rapper on all sides of the Continent. This tour is 360 degrees James Brown Hot! If you coming to see Bootsy's Rubber Band, your at the wrong show. If you come to see Parliament Funkadelic, Bootsy was still with the Godfather. Now if you coming just to see Bootsy like back in the day when he started with the Godfather, YEA! This is that Mutha, so bring your Popcorn. *Additional Guest are: Fred Wesley, Afrika Bambaata, and Chuck D on certain shows only. here is the review from the the James Brown Tribute Show that took place on 12.22.2007 at The Madison Theater in Covington, KY: http://www.cincygroove.com/?q=node/121 *DATES: MAY Thursday, May 1 : Electric Factory / Philadelphia, PA *JB Tribute Tour Friday, May 2 : Rams Head Live! / Baltimore, MD *JB Tribute Tour Saturday, May 3 : The Fillmore @ Irving Plaza / New York, NY *JB Tribute Tour Sunday, May 4 : The Roxy / Boston, MS *JB Tribute Tour Tuesday, May 6 : House Of Blues / Cleveland, OH *JB Tribute Tour Thursday, May 8 : Lifestyle Communities Pavillion / Columbus, OH *JB Tribute Tour Friday, May 9 : The Royal Oak Theater / Detroit, MI *JB Tribute Tour Saturday, May 10 : Kool Haus / Toronto, CAN *JB Tribute Tour Monday, May 12 : House Of Blues / Chicago, IL *JB Tribute Tour Wednesday, May 14 : The Pageant / St.Louis, MO *JB Tribute Tour Thursday, May 15 : TPAC/ Andrew Jackson Hall / Nashville, TN *JB Tribute Tour Friday, May 16 : Center Stage / Tabernacle / Atlanta, GA *JB Tribute Tour Saturday, May 17 : House Of Blues / New Orleans, LA *JB Tribute Tour Monday, May 19 : House Of Blues / Dallas, TX *JB Tribute Tour Tuesday, May 20 : Stubb's Waller Creek Amphitheater / *JB Tribute Tour Wednesday, May 21 : Warehouse Live / Houston, TX *JB Tribute Tour Friday, May 23 : The Celebrity Theater / Phoenix, AZ *JB Tribute Tour Saturday, May 24 : House Of Blues / Las Vegas, NV *JB Tribute Tour Sunday, May 25 : Viejas Concerts In The Park / San Diego, CA *JB Tribute Tour Tuesday, May 27 : House Of Blues / Los Angeles, CA *JB Tribute Tour Thursday, May 29 : House Of Blues / Anaheim, CA *JB Tribute Tour Friday, May 30 : The Fillmore / San Francisco, CA *JB Tribute Tour Saturday, May 31 : The Nugget Casino / Lake Tahoe, NV *JB Tribute Tour JUNE Monday, June 2 : Roseland Theater / Portland, OR *JB Tribute Tour Tuesday, June 3 : The Paramount Theater / Seattle, WA *JB Tribute Tour Wednesday, June 4 : The Commodore / Vancouver, BC *JB Tribute Tour Thursday, June 26 : The National / Richmond, VA *JB Tribute Tour Friday, June 27 : Palace Theater / Pittsburgh, PA *JB Tribute Tour Saturday, June 28 : Murat Theater / Indianapolis, IN *JB Tribute Tour Monday, June 30 : Summerfest / Milwaukee, WI *JB Tribute Tour JULY Tuesday, July 1 : ZOO / Minneapolis, MN *JB Tribute Tour Friday, July 25 : Fuji Rock Festival / Niigata, Japan *JB Tribute Tour http://www.cincygroove.com/?q=node/211 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= tA Tribal Disorder
