George Clinton performed with Funkadelic and the Parliaments, and they blew the proverbial fucking roof off the Hollywood Bowl. The performance of the night followed Thundercat's set (and another of Gaslamp Killer's musical intermissions). Some were holding up lighters, while others were scream-singing the melody (not the words) of the song and swigging Bulleit Bourbon out of the bottle. Toward the end of Thundercat's set Michael McDonald and Kenny Loggins came out to perform “What a Fool Believes,” which had people standing up in their boxes with hands in the air swaying back and forth. The band supporting Thundercat was also just as groovy. It was easy to feel his passion, as his hands slid up the neck of his bass while his fingers plucked the strings. He stood at the front of the stage and serenaded those in attendence with his dazzling double-bass guitar. He opened up the night with a 15 minute mini-set before Seattle's Shabazz Palaces brought their hip-hop beats to the stage.Īfter Shabazz performed, Gaslamp took over again and warmed up the crowd before Thundercat melted the Bowl with a soulful jazz fusion. He performed in between every set of the night, preventing any awkward silence during the downtime. Similar to the way one would mediate a panel discussion, Gaslamp was the musical mediator of the evening. His movements, exaggerated by his poofy, curly-fro hair, made his quirky jolts of energy easily felt by the crowd.
Per usual, he hunched and bobbed over his turn tables, like a mad scientist concocting elixirs and potions.
The Gaslamp Killer was the first to spin last Saturday night. Between Thundercat, the Gaslamp Killer and FlyLo, the show was an epic throwdown of Los Angeles natives showing their city what they've got. Brainfeeder, Flying Lotus' record label, boasts a roster of music's edgiest performers in the beat, jazz, funk and experimental scenes.
