PHUNKYMAN
At The Grape Street - Philly (5/19/05)
PHUNKYMAN! PHUNKYMAN! ROCK THE PHUNK LIKE NOBODY CAN!!
At
10:20pm, PHUNKYMAN and his merry group of phunksters started their set with
some of "My Experience", the funky horn-driven intro from the recent
Phunkyman release. "Testify" was some good uptempo funk with the good
lead vocals of Phunkyman himself, background vocals by Dora Eaton, smolderin'
bass by the ever-so-deadly Warren Davis and some good percussion! "Here
Comes De Funk" featured the lead guitar fire of the madman on the lead
axe, Phunkyman, coupled with some great moments of horniness from the horn players,
Eric Bigelow, Dave and some guy on the trombone!!! "SummaTime"
featured a super heavy-duty bass funk workout and a duel between the bassist
(Warren) and drummer (Andre Adams) to see who was more outrageous! The
interlude following featured Phunkyman playing some hardcore Latin lead guitar
riffs and encouraging every fan to shout "Olè!" The last song was the
funky "Funky Sunshine"...it sounded great, but what was the purpose
of the harmonica....it really didn't add anything to the tune!
