Morning Music - Sly and the Family Stone

My favorite part of this performance on the Ed Sullivan show was unfortunately left out of this video. It is when Sly announced at the beginning:

"Don't hate the black, don't hate the white. If you get bit, just hate the bite."

Hope it gets your butt rockin'. It worked for me!

An Evening Out - SXSW

I know no one as blessed by the friends he keeps.

A great evening at Auditorium Shores, waiting for the two-song performance of Erykah Badu.

Morning Music - Mother of All Funk Chords

Funk is a form of self-expression that says I am exploding with something to say.  It reigns it in, pulls it tight and does the pelvic thrust.  It says I am angry, so I dance!  I am enraged and I snap my fingers! I am in love, so my hips gyrate and I may be poor; but I am O so happy!!! 

Tonight we jam.  Tomorrow...We don't know if there's a tomorrow.
