Maybe the only time I ever see Clinton live and his show is ruined by some knuckleheads who probably don't understand the significance of Clinton as an icon in the music industry. Clearly, they felt 100,000 people gathered to see fireworks instead of George Clinton.
Aside from that rant, the show was awesome. He was puttin' it on big time. He really knows how to put on a show, and I stood in the rain with my eyes and ears riveted to the stage. Awesome!

I'm with you totally embarrassing. Whoever made that decision should be fired, totally inept person in charge.
I mean what's the difference if the fireworks were at 11pm or 11:10 pm?
Or the real issue, why does a fireworks show need choreographed music, especially Niel DIamond and marching bands.....and that's better that George Clinton?
Heads should roll.
I'm sorry I missed that show.
