George Clinton's Makeover

Well, we hardly recognized George Clinton without the rainbow dreads he's sported for decades. Here he is last night in Tallahassee:

Clitnon's suprprise show at Tallahassee's club The Moon featured the time-honored P-Funk shenanigans --  simulated sex on stage, fur chaps, booty shakin girls, Indian headresses, zombie costumes, a giant doobie-smoking skull head, and killer funk. At the end, I counted 46 people on the stage.

Clinton and P-Funk now head out on tour after spending time in Tallahassee recording a new album. They go to Gernamy, the Netherlands, Belgium and England. They will be back in Florida on New Year's Eve, where you can catch them at The Bond-Fire Festival outside Orlando along with The New Mastersounds, The North Mississippi  All Stars,  Soullive, Particle, Cope, Papadiosio, Zach Deputy, and more.

If you get tickets now, it's $150 for a four-day pass. Kids 15 and under are free. This is a first-time affair for this festival, so I can't advise much about festing conditions. I can tell you the site has port-o-lets only -- no brick-and-mortar bathrooms, and will have several stages and a late-night tent.

The four-day pass includes primitive camping. If you want to bring an RV in, you have to pay an extra $65 at the gate. If you want an electric site, it’s $85.

P Funk New Year's? Oh yeah, I'm in.
