Wow, just got back from checking out the P-Funk allstars here in Dublin and what can I say...my brain hurts now, first time I was ever at a gig in Ireland where there wasnt a queue at the bar cos everyone was too busy groovin' (and this is a rare thing believe me).
The band were awesome and the first 2 hours of the gig were the business until GAAARRRRGHHH they started into this wanky 'g**tar odyssey' thing which went on....and on......and on......which I'm sure it sounded great if you were on the old 'wacky tobbaccy' (I can like, see the music man)but unfortunately I wasnt so the nuances were a little lost on me and the gig never recovered after that which was a shame cos that first half 'KICKED ASS' and the brass section were tighter than a ducks arse....FUNK AWAY.
