At
10:20pm, the Halloween party got off to a scary start with some "P-Funk
(Wants to Get Funked Up)" featuring the funky vocals of Wesley Bean and
Scrape (who was wearing an alien mask)! Gene McBride was the highlight with his
orgasmic keyboardisms on "Mothership Connection"! Lead guitarist Mike
McHenry burned the club with some high-wattage guitar riffs on "NIght of
the Thumpasorus Peoples" and "Get Off Your Ass and Jam"!!
"Toast to the Boogie" featured the wonderful horn work of saxophonist
Jerry Queene and trumpeteer Mike! The drumming was great on "Good to Your
Earhole", thanks to Mark Brown (By the way, Clones alumnus drummer, Tom
"FatherThyme/Smack Daddy" Wilson was checking out the show)!!
"Tear the Roof Off the Sucka" was nice, but somewhere in the show,
there were some seriously funkafied, stank-ass bass solo by Terre
Holland.....Terre was doing stuff like "The Jam" (by Graham Central
Station) and "Slide" (by Slave)! "Red Hot Momma" (a guitar
scorcher) somehow sounded better with the addition of a conga player! The first
set ended at 11:40pm.
