Wow, Inducted by Lil Kim. That sucks, couldn't they get someone with some real musical ability. Seems like a really poor choice. Posted by PLUTO on Sunday, 10/26/2014 @ 18:19pm |
Saw them perform with Chicago the other night (they opened for them)! It was a great show. Verdine White is one of the most underrated bassists of all time. I did see a livestream of their Bonnaroo performance a month ago, but I finally saw them in person. It would have been cool to see them during their heyday, back when they used several effects during their shows. But I'm glad I added another RRHOFer to the list of 'bands I've seen'. Philip Bailey's son did a great job singing vocals on most of their songs. The band still knows how to get down Posted by Jason Voigt on Sunday, 08/2/2015 @ 20:20pm |
Jason, as you know, I saw them at Bonnaroo & was blown away. Just a great, high energy show! Phillip has still got it & now his son can help him out also. Verdine can twist those strings as well as any bassist. End of show, Kendrick Lamarr & Chance the Rapper dropped by for a couple of songs. Was down in that pit, so you know what kind of seat I had. Sure glad you got to see them! Posted by Paul in KY on Monday, 08/3/2015 @ 07:33am |
That's some great stuff, Paul! Kendrick Lamar (I'm learning more about him than ever) was a great surprise appearance at the festival! Posted by Jason Voigt on Tuesday, 08/4/2015 @ 23:11pm |
