    Not only did this performance should've gotten numeros of Grammys but it should've also been awarded an Oscar because this is something that even the best screen play writers in Hollywood couldn't even began to write a script for. This was the most incredible show I'd ever seen in my life. If any of you were there, then you know what I'm saying

    I miss the young legend. Let me say this .I met him when they touched down in Saginaw Mi. That concerts was a mind blowing experience for me a 15 year old teen. Two hours before the concert me and friends met him and others of the Parlia Funkadelic .Glen walking back stage with guitar in hand killing the guitar and showing his gift 1977. God bless Glen 🙏

    Glen was a DOPE GUITARIST, by far one of the best I've heard. You don't here a lot of guitars is now days match with their voice, but this DUDE, was truly a GIFT to both,(instruments/vocals). He and my dad were good friends. I can only wish to keep UP the FUNK now. #RipGlen #Funkin4Life #OneNation

    Glad I grew up at that same time. We went to SHOWS!!!! Musicians, smoke, crowd participation. Not pre-recorded tracks and a turntable. The Capital Center had P-Funk, Maze, Stevie Wonder, Prince, Michael Jackson, Chuck Brown, Trouble Funk, Rick James, Cameo and many more. That is why are kids are always mining our records.The last great period of R&B.

    I can't help but cry when I see him sing. It was about 1978 when I saved my money to buy the PFUNK EARTH TOUR ALBUM. I was hanging up clothes on our outside clothes line. When Glenn came up to sign SWING DOWN, I felt a strong power coming from the speakers, ALL PRAISES ARE DUE TO ALLAH FOR GIVING US THIS SOUL-BROTHER, even just for a short 23 years. HOPE TO SEE AND TALK TO YOU SOON BROTHER GLENN.😢😂

    People, ONLY 83,690 hits? This is an amazing display of musical talent, soul, inspiration, and showmanship by the entire ensemble! Not to mention, GLEN GOINS STRAIGHT KILLED THE VOCALS AND GUITAR!! Justin Beiber, Lady Gaga, Drake, Lil' Wayne...get MILLIONS of hits whith each of their songs. There is no comparison in terms of talent, showmanship, musicialship, or vocals. Imagine Beiber playing guitar the way Glen did here! Yes, folks, as human beings, there is something REALLY wrong with us.

    Another great Swing Down. Uniquely dreamy and sad (and truly tragic, given Glenn's worsening condition), but still bringing the soul and funk. Another reminder of Glenn's incredible talent.
    Side note: check out the chick rushing the stage at 6:49 and getting escorted off! Glenn was driving 'em WILD that night!
