Yesterday, I saw The Time and The Gap Band

I had a blast! Crowd was a little dead and didn't know the words to the songs but I danced and sang my ass off.

Morris and the guys did a medley of cuts but I was so happy to hear The Stick and Wild and Loose. Dude tore up Gigalos Get Lonely, Too. headbang

The Gap Band did almost every single one of my favorite cuts: Shake, Humpin', Party Lights, No Hiding Place and they also did Early In The Mornin', You Dropped a Bomb on Me, Party Train BUT they blew me away when they came out to Gash, Gash, Gash!!! headbang

Charlie Wilson looked and sounded great. biggrin

Sounds like it was a lot of fun! Was this a one-off thing, some sort of festival performance?

You are so cool for knowing Gash, Gash, Gash. clapping Morris and the guys brought ladies on stage but they didn't do If The Kid Can't Make You Come, which I was really hoping for. And the Gap Band didn't do Found My Baby or Weak Spot. I was kinda hoping for Big Fun or Jam To The Motha.
