Review of the Time @ Foxwods Casino Checked out the Morris Day and The Time show at the Foxwoods casino in CT
last night and I need to report on the incredible event. First of all, mad props to my crew: Joe Kelley,a funky brotha who is extremely instrumental in supporting and promoting the Minneapolis music (especially The Time) scene (and others) on his WVOF radio show and internet shows, Joe's lady Gi Money, who's representing from Canada, and of course my brother and all time ace, Face(Down)Man, an old school playa who has been representing since back in the day. THE SHOW: Morris and his funky brothas were in top form as usual, keeping it real with old school funk n roll, unmatched by any others out there. The joint was alive as the band hit us up with Oak Tree, Jerk Out, Cool, Jungle Love and all the hits. These brothas were slamming, because they are MUSICIANS first anf foremost. They take their craft seriously and are dedicated to music. Hanging with the band in the dressing rooms after the show was off the hook!! These brothas are down to earth, really cool guys who genuinely appreciate the love and support. Shout outs need to go to: Tori Ruffin, the pimp daddy on guitar. Again, his solos were blazing (especially during 777-9311) and he's just the coolest cat to talk to. Big ups to Tori (and you ALL need to take a sip of Tori's other band, FREAKJUICE. It's incredible). Morris is the ultimate old school playa, full of fun and cool. He signed my "Color of Success" program and was too gracious with us all. Monte Moir is one smooth cat, always there with a hookup and appreciating the love. Many thanks. Jellybean, always on point, keeping the beat bottom heavy and funky, one of the best sticksmen out there. Freeze and Chance and Jerome kept the fun and funk alive. Mad love ya'll. All in all an incredible event. If you're a supporter or old school playa (like myself) you need to show the love and support any chance you can. And you know I always will. Peace, JD | |
