Saw him a couple of months ago in Colorado. Great show! And L-O-U-D!!!! Definitely bring some hearing protection. Just sayin'. His bass rig was bigger than the house P.A. as far as I could tell!

Bootsy posted about this on his facebook page - looks like he may be switching management...

In similar funk-related management-woes news, I was horrified to learn that George Clinton had all the publishing rights to his songs taken away from him over the years. "Unsung" on the TV One network is one of my favorite shows, but sometimes the stories are heartbreaking...

So to get it back upbeat, here's my 3Leaf GR2 envelope filter that I had signed by Bootsy!
