Live music review: Bootsy Collins landed the funk mothership at ACL Live Sunday - Austin Concerts

After wondering aloud how long it had been since Bootzilla had headlined a tour we found out it was 16 years ago. Watching Collins and his all-star crew of players (there were 15 of them) having what looked like the time of their life on stage Sunday evening was priceless. Bootsy wore multiple costumes throughout an extended, three-hour set. The leader of the Funk U-Nity World Tour landed the mothership of funk smack in the middle of downtown Austin and he was not in any hurry to move onto the next stop. Maybe it was the homemade cape a fan gave him or the crowd chanting "Bootsy, Bootsy" before he took the stage, but the man who put the funk in the bass wanted to hang around ATX as long as possible it seemed. The lineup looked like a future Rock n Roll Hall of Fame inductee class. Special thanks to Keitha Spears of ACL Live. House Guests - My Mind Set Me Free Part 2 by Dalastvoodoogag.

Comprising the backing band will be P-Funk artists Blackbyrd McKnight on guitar, Bernie Worrell and Razor Sharp Johnson on keys, and Frankie Kash on drums, joined by Public Enemy’s Colonel Hardgroove, the Pretenders’ TM Stevens, and the Nasty Natty Horns for what should prove to be memorable night of funk. Collins is on his first solo tour since 1998, so he had plenty to talk about. Bootsy, how the funk are you? Oh, I’m doin’ funky and good. Tell me about the Funk Unity group you pulled together for this tour. Well, I figured, how can I put this together and do a tour that would feature some of the music [Parliament-Funkadelic and Bootsy's Rubber Band] were known for, and do some music from the albums. How was that? BOOTSY VIDEO CLIP.
