Yeah, but no. Sure, I wanted Larry, etc. to be there, but come on, just the fact that he's alive and well and playing. He's been hiding for some twenty years, and here he is: one of the three funk legends, the only one I haven't seen live yet. Only two of them are still with us. I can't lie, I'm excited to see him this summer!

This is exactly how I feel.In recent years,we've lost so many of our R&B legends and I regret that I never got to see some of them in concert.I'm not gonna make that mistake with Sly Stone.I'm thrilled to be seeing him this summer!
