Are George Clinton & P-Funk still worth going to see?

So, I have a chance to go see George Clinton & P-Funk for the first time. My question is for those who have seen them recently--are they worth going to see anymore; do they still deliver in live concert?

No don't waste you're money - you'll see more action at a James Brown concert

If it's your first time, go!!!! Even if they lost something, which I can understand, the man is 70+, it's something you just HAVE to experience if you have even one funky bone in your body. (Hey, that could be a P-funk song!)
Back in the 90s I was into the P as much as Prince and I must have seen them more than 10 times.
These days, whenever he tours, I'm thinking, shall I go another time? It's always fun. But I've had my share, so I skip it every time.
But if you're not suffering from overkill like me, go when you have the chance!

Yes, I saw them in Cleveland earlier this year and really enjoyed it.

Flashlight and We Want The Funk brought the house down! excited

Last time I saw them was about 5 years back, they funked the place up bigtime! Best time I ever saw them actually, such control and groove. So yes, I think you should go!
RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time...

Probably not for George himself, but I think the band is still pretty good.

If you are high, as the damn sky.....Yes lol !!! But, honestly no. Hearing George growl his way through a show, is a sad thing to witness.
