Well, i'm seeing the funkmaster, bootsy collins on thursday night, at berklee performance center. It seems like it will be part Q & A and part concert. I'm pumped to get some serious funknowledgey from bootsy. has anyone met or seen him before, was he as crazy as he seems?

See if you can nab some of that legendary Funk-shake from him. You know, the milkshake made from the Funk? No? Darn.

Haha! I don't feel as stupid for obscure references! (Obscure in America for the most part)
I love British humor.
But I would also love to see Bootsy live. That man is so funky!

DOS, *** is that about!? Show the man resepct or Ill eat your heart, DEEP FRIED!


jaerip, please tell the man that the funkateers at TalkBass deeply appreciate him! Give him a BIG Talkbass bear hug from us!

You lucky dog you. I'd love to see him. Ask him to do " Muchies for your Love! " Maybe DOS will marry him. I got a canned prenup right here.

Not that it matters to me at all, but is Mr. Collins gay? Is that the marriage reference DOS? IF not, I gots some HOT OIL a'ready over here. And I'm HUNGRY.

wink wink.....

Peace. Out.
