Doin' It (?)                                                               
Free Your Mind..                                                           

Not a bad show, but not nearly as good as the one with Bootsy and the      
Mothership I saw this summer..  it also really hurt to have the horns      
missing.                                                                   

It started out great with the Funkadelic songs but "If Anybody Gets Funked 
Up" went on *way* too long.  "Booty" was excellent..  that song will never 
get old, even if George bobbing Louie's head does :) . "Summer Swim"       
started out weak and dull, but it was sounding great by the time they got  
to "Wade in the Water"..  "Funky Kind" was a nice suprise, but not as nice 
as "Foot Soldiers"..  I felt like I was the only audience member singing,  
which was probably because most of the people around me were colleGe kids  
who probably didn't know the vast majority of songs..                      

The effect of the audience continuing to sing the "Knee Deep" background   
vocals during "Sentimental Journey" was a real high point..  you would     
have had to have been there to fully apprecIate this, I think.  :)         

"Atomic Dog" was nothing too special..  Louie came back out toward the     
end of it, mike in hand, seeming like he was ready to sing "Rhythm and     
Rhyme" or something, but George seemed to send him away and went into      
"Doin' It" or something like that, which I'd never heard before.           

The show ended kind of abruptly, after about 3 hours, at the end of        
"Free Your Mind".  They invited everybody to an afterparty, but being      
under 21 and not very familiar with Akron, I didn't go.                    

There werE some really great moments in this show, but it could have been  
better.  I'll say that my appetite for Bernie and Bootsy's tours has been  
whetted, and leave it at that.  :)
