10/14/2005: Free all star funk in McLaren Park on Saturday!

HAPPY FRIDAY Y'ALL!

Due to a severe case of 'too-much-on-my-plate'
syndrome, there will be no actual McShow contained
herein. There is however one event that I felt
compelled to tell you all about.

|||||| SATURDAY 10/15 ||||||

Join me (and a certain cute little redhead) for the
FREQUINOX music festival in McLaren Park's Jerry
Garcia Amphitheatre
from 12 to 6 tomorrow. The players
are a collection of people from the Funky Meters,
Galactic, Greyboy Allstars, Papa Grows Funk,
Motherbug, and more! It's a free show with beverage
proceeds to benefit New Orleans musicians. Super
neato. Dig the lineup:

12:00- Monophonics
1:15- Bucho!
2:45- Fully Loaded
4:30- Russell Batiste & Orkestra From Da Hood

Fully Loaded and Orkestra From Da Hood are all-star
funk/jazz players all!

Fully Loaded: Cochemea Gastelum (sax, Robert Walter),
Will Bernard (guitar, Motherbug), Chris Stillwell
(bass, Greyboy Allstars), Chuck Prada (percussion,
Black Eyed Peas), and Adam Deitch (drums, John
Scofield
)

Russell Batiste & Orkestra From Da Hood: Russell
Batiste (drums, Funky Meters), June Yamagishi (guitar,
Papa Grows Funk), Jason Mingledorf (sax, Galactic),
and more horns and rhythm players too!

I'll probably be there around 2pm or so with beers.
Give me a shout if you're headin' out!

I'll actually do a McShow next week, I swear!
