12 Years ago today…
Nestled in the heart of urban Atlanta, Lakewood Ampitheatre was the site of this monster, space funk show. This was one of those shows that was truly a treat. I was at the show with some of my best college friends and then happened to run into some of my closest friends whom I hadn’t seen in ages by sheer coincidence. A great show that featured a monster “Ghost” and a killer “Y.E.M.” that swung into the Joe Walsh classic rock fave “Rocky Mountain Way”. The funk at this show was so deep that you needed galoshes.
