I would have much rather seen Parliament stick to one song but I still dug them. I hate when Phillip Bailey sings Maurice White's part. I love EWF, but I am sick of that stuff.

Phillip Bailey's rendention of Minnie Riperton/Mariah Carey (take your pick) sucked, but overall I enjoyed their set. I was especially amused by Verdine White's outfit!!! falloff

George Clinton and The Dusty Senior Citizens Legion literally looked like they just came from their crackhouse. A damn mess!!! nuts

I'll say it again...George Clinton looked like he was chasing the neighbor kids off his yard - scary. And I wanted more Bootsy!

Musically the P-Funk doesn't hold a candle to the genius of Earth Wind and Fire IMO.

Well you do know that Maurice is in poor health right? It's great to just see him out there again but he can't sing like he used to so that's why Phillip takes his parts.

Both EWF and P-funk have seen better days when it comes to performing. As much as I love those two legendary groups, Robert Randolph and the Family Band really made that whole funk segment.

the funk segment was okay but george clinton did look like he just rolled outta the crackhouse. he's had problems for awhile now. he didn't even sing that much at the grammy's, it was mostly his back up singers. sad

Yes, I know he is ill but Phil singing all his parts just strains his voice. I am glad to just see Maurice, too.

I missed it all - but friends tell me that the P-Funk Depends sponsored team went out into the crowd, which was coo, but the return trip looked like it was a bit of a challenge.

I mean, hey - more power to ya if you're 137 and still performing... but - well. I'm sure all our heroes will go thru this. Prince will be singing Erotic City with an Oxygen tank and a walker and we'll ALL be going "YOU GO BOY!!"

Don't hate---P-Funk brought the party to the grammys. It was basically a 'pop'ularity contest and got "loosened" up. GC did call and response went out in the audience and people got off they asses. P-Funk dide everything they didn't want that's why they held off on 50 cent, Nelly and P-Diddy. Did he see the P-Funk member flashing his nipple...LOL (priceless)

My dad says EWF sucked too. I didn't think it was that bad. I'll have to watch it again.

Those "old" cats can outplay ALL the busters out now including Andre MPC 3000. All these weak ass artists now need to see what REAL talent is. They SOUNDED great. Y'all must watch t.v. with the volume down.

personally, I loved the whole thing, OUtkast, Pfunk, George, EWF, it all rocked to me, but if I had to choose, I'd say it was EWF that I was happiest to see..
