You are in for one hell of a show.

I can't imagine Zapp without Roger. It would feel like watching a cover band. Oh well, it's still better than seeing any of these current artists though and the rest of the lineup to that show looks great.

cool.

r.i.p. roger

I saw them in 2004 and before the show,I was very skeptical.I didn't think it would work without Roger but I was pleasantly surprised.They kicked ass!

Have a great time and please report!

Grab some friends and come to the show tonight! Let's show some Bay Area love for the Old School.

I've gone to numeorous Super Oldies concerts and I can truly say that this was one of the best.

Zapp turned it out!! They were the highlight of the show.

JoJo was alot of fun,too.She did the regular 3-song set that she always does ("Candy Man","All Night Long" and "In My House") and she mentioned that she has a new solo CD out,called 'Slightly Dangerous'.

I had never seen Aalon before,so it was cool to finally see him.He performed one song that I can't recall,then he performed the cruising classic "Rock N'Roll Gangster".

GQ and Heatwave did their thing,as well.The Originals were GREAT! Billy Paul still sounds great after all these years."Me And Mrs.Jones" was well received.

I saw them live in 2004 along with Slave,Lakeside & Slapbak in Cali. Even though it would have been great to see Roger do his thang, the Zapp boys were fantastic. They put on a great show. Great costumes,dance moves & a very professional performance. They did kick ass

I like how they used alot of crazy props and costumes,in addition to the funky grooves.It was very entertaining.

^ Did my mate Bigg Robb run out in his nappy

flytetyme said:

He sure did He changed costumes several times and did all those silly pranks ...lol...he's hilarious.

vainandy said:

Even with Terry "Zapp" Troutman as the current band leader who is very able to write new songs, Zapp is for the most part a cover band.

But at least Terry will use Roger's talkbox instead of that bullshit Auto-Tunes software that T-Pain be using in his shit-hop/rhythmless bullshit songs.

I'll take the talkbox AND the vocoder any day over Auto-Tunes!

I shook Terry's hand when he came to the edge of the stage

^ Like I always say, Auto-Tune is the new Milli Vanilli.

I hate that shit

SoulAlive said:

Oh, fo' real tho'? I wonder where we can find it? I don't see it anywhere for sale on the net.
