I finally got a club to buy into my idea of mixing my band with a DJ for a once-a-month Friday Night Partay. Basically, I play a set, DJ plays a set, then I play a set, then the DJ finishes the night and your mom goes home happy.

It's in late January - gonna feature only my funky stuff and my favorite 70's/80's funk stuff - Dazz, Prince, Jackson 5, and more. I kind of envision the magic happening like this - we play a set, the last song is a cover and the DJ picks up the ending of the song with the real thing mixed and bam we're done.

Oh MAN I can't wait.

But I need a name for the night. Give me ideas. The best I can come up with 5 minutes thought is Purple Stank - but that only hints at the Prince tip, it doesn't talk about the awesomeness of my own band.

MAN I can't wait.

"Old School Funk Extravaganza" maybe?

Everybody Gets Funked!

Crazy-Funky-Friday

Your mom + Old School + Live Music = A Good Time

Vinyl Screams vs Guitar Strings (Battle of the Beasts kinda theme)
Guitar Strings and Vinyl Screams
Guitar Funk and Vinyl Junk
Rock Troupe on DJ Soup
Funky Band and a Turntable man
Band Jam DJ Slam (or Band Slam DJ Jam)
Rock & Spin
Guitar Stacks and Wax

My personal favorite: Hot Wax on a Rock Hard!

That's it. We're done. Your welcome.

Mad busy. I live in Dallas now. Still have all the toys in Florida, though. Gonna head back for an extended visit soon, I hope. Have the Street Painting Festival coming up in Feb, that will be awesome. Son is in kindergarden now, going on high school. The princess is trying to become queen and the queen is still putting up with my behind. Behind the scenes there are a lot things in the works that I'll be bringing here first as always. Stay tuned.

I understand me and psykosoul are neighbors now!

A few new photos: http://kellymcclain.net

Ok, back to work.
The poster should be a vinyl record melting at the bottom, dripping on a guitar neck held at a 45 degree angle. If that doesn't pull people in, I'm not sure what would. Don't forget to send me some recordings!

so what was the final verdict?

How about this: "Funkture"

I'm clueless.

Phat Butts. No idea. It's still 6 weeks away. I should get it together I suppose. Played an acoustic thing tonight that turned out very very interesting (the afterparty). It's good to be me right now.

something like that

no go?
