Cleveland P-Funk gig moved up to Nov/9 Disappointing news to report for all those funkateers dreaming of the
ultimate funk night, Sunday, Nov 12, in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame City. According to The Cleveland Agora concert schedule -- (http://www.clevelandagora.com/concertsched.htm) and Ticketmaster.com, George Clinton and Parliament-Funkadelic has moved up their gig to accommodate Prince's Sunday night performance at the Cleveland State U Convocation Center. ... According to the Agora Theatre rep who I just called, said because of the Prince concert Nov. 12, the Pfunk date in Cleveland was rescheduled because of the two funk pioneers were to have performed on the same night, just down the street from each other. ... The new date for the P-funk Cleveland stop is this Thursday, Nov. 9. Clinton is currently on an annual fall tour with The Mothership, performing Wednesday, Nov. 8, at the Electric Factory in Philadelphia. According to an older tour schedule (see link below), Nov. 9 was a travel day to Cleveland, with a Mothership tour stop to Case Western Reserve University, a prestigious university in Cleveland. Then on Nov. 11, Clinton travels down to Columbus to the Newport Music Hall, and then was to have traveled back up to Cleveland and the Agora on Sunday. . ... But here is the interesting part - Pfunk does not play again until next Tuesday, Nov. 14, at the Vogue Theatre in Indianapolis, IN. My guess, and my only guess is that something might still take place. I was hoping to see George and Sir Nozed'voidofunk and Belita Woods guest on stage with Prince earlier in the night, and then have Prince return the favor later at the Agora. That wish might still happen, and it might not. ... But at least I have two floor seats to see Prince at my collegiate alma mater. I could have witnessed at possible 6-plus hours of funk Sunday night in Cleveland, but I might only be a witness to seeing Prince at two venues. But the question still remains - an afterparty at Millenium Club across from Jacobs Field? Or will something happen at Metropolis or Mirage on the Water or The Odeon (Keb'Mo) in The Flats? ...
