I was pumped to shoot this show. I have never seen these guys live before, and heard nothing but good things. The show was fun, and they had a rotating cast of about 20 or so dancers/singers/perfor​mers all running on and off stage (often for smoke breaks). One thing that floored me though, was that George Clinton SHAVED HIS DREADS! He also trimmed his beard up. I actually didn't even recognize him at first. Here's a few:

1. No pit, so the crowd was in most of the shots in some capacity. Did most of the shooting from the sound board.

A really great set! Love it when there is a "performance" rather than just a concert!

Some nice shots. Very nice expression on #7.

I'd go a bit easier on the contrast and the blacks though...
