Anybody going to one of these Funk Fest concerts? Is there one coming to your town?

I'm going to the one with George Clinton and P-Funk (September 15)....can't wait!

Now, this is what I call some real funk fests. They were having somn in Atlanta recently billed as a funk fest I took one look at the bill and said you've got to be kidding me. I wouldn't mind seeing what the whole Vaugn Mason & Crew has turned out to be. That Roll Bouce story of how that song and the crew came to be is fascinating. Vaughn basically hired some cats on the spot to be his "crew" just before they put it down in the studio. Or somn like that. Have fun(K).

This show is gonna be amazing! Brick?! I love those guys I played the hell out of their first two albums,back in the day.Also excited to see Dazz Band.....A Taste Of Honey?? Those ladies are great!! The Ohio Players??? Lawd have mercy! this is gonna be one funk-filled night and just when you think it can't get any better,George Clinton and his P-Funk crew are gonna do their thing!! WOW!

to those of you who live in Los Angeles or anywhere nearby......you gotta go to that OC Funk Fest with Morris Day and The Time headlining!! That lineup is a dream come true

just ordered the T-shirt that I'm gonna wear to the show

The SOS Band (with original lead singer Mary Davis) have also been appearing at these Funk Fest shows in recent years.I'm happy that they're back on the road,doing their thing.

Would love to see these shows but I'm on the East Coast. I wanna know how they are gonna

sqeeze all 12 of those acts in for this Los Angeles show. I saw the S.O.S Band last summer and

they put on a good show. They went back in the crate and pulled out some gems like S.OS(dit dit dit dash dash dit dit dit). Interested to see how the Barkays fare with their new lead singer.

Such a shame that these shows don’t play all over the US.

You know I forgot they actually do have the Soul Food Music Festival that comes

to the East Coast the past several years but I haven't attended in 3 years because of either

work or the lineup. They don't have a lineup or date as of yet for this year. It's usually in May

or June. -

Wow, that's almost like seeing Prince. They've got some mean badass bass player there! That guy behind Morris, is that Jerome Benton?

No,Jerome is not a member of the Time anymore.They've been using this other guy for awhile.

in tha video,notice at 3:50 a lady walks onstage and starts dancing.I thought they invited her but it looks like she is soon being escorted off the stage

Wow! I wish Ohio Players would come to the UK.

Wow,I'd really love to see the SOS Band! "High Hopes" and "Just Be Good To Me" are my favorites.I'm hoping that they appear at next year's Funk Fest.

One of my favorite funk bands and I'm thrilled that I will finally get to see them.

By any chance,was that event held at Stone Mountain Park? I follow the band Brick on Facebook and they recently performed a show there.I was wondering if it was the same event that you mentioned.
