Hey Steveman! I left you a comment on your other page, but figured you check this one more frequently. Are you going to see Death Cab on Thursday? I am swinging over to your neck of the woods and then to NYC and was thinking of getting tix.

Hey Sending some P-funk love and vibes your way. James Brown was my personal on the One teacher, he was my Mentor along with Bobby Byrd and he gave me the world when he allowed me to be in the Original JB's band that day changed my whole P-funked up life.
He will always be number one on my charts and thank you for keepin' the funk alive.
Bootsy was here given up da funk!!!
