Yeah he's been rocking the short haired slicked back look for a while and yes he doesn't seem high onstage. I've seen footage of him engaging the show so if he's sober it shows.

Dream tour. JB's/Parliament double bill featuring Bootsy/Fred Wesley/Maceo in the band and JB's fronted by the singer from Vintage Trouble.

Don't get your hopes up too high. I saw them together at North Sea Jazz in 1996 and it was a big letdown. It was an ultra-short GC set(whose band then exited the stage) followed by an ultra-short Bootsy set and only then did they join hands for a few songs together. It was actually the worst P-funk concert I ever saw.

I'm sorry! I can't make it any better than it was. If they do get together another time, maybe it will be better...
