The first time I saw the landing of the mothership I was thoroughly “medicated” and that sucker looked like something from sci fi outer space! Loved it!!!!!!!!! Been a funkateer since forever and ain’t never gonna stop
I watched the Mothership land in Madison Square Garden. One of them flew in over the audience with a guitar wearing a diaper Lolol. But when they hit Flashlight, hundreds of flashlights lit up in the audience! Everybody had some sort of flashlight! Those were the days💖. I tried to make every concert I could get to. A true Funkateer🚀
I was front row when it made a return trip to DFW in '78 - my first concert. The dude to my right had a Space1999 toy gun high as a kite. Two seats to my left was a 9 yr. old boy who at one point George brought him on stage to sing (I think) Get Off Your Ass And Jam... I was so jealous. Thanks, sis!
The funk energy was definitely in the house that night. Glen Goines was the soul of Parliament/ Funkadelic's! His voice was a mixture of funk and spiritual which created that funky style! RIP Glen!!
Ohio 🎨. The concert was wild! We went crazy when the mothership came from nowhere and landed. The band had more smoke in the air than the early Snoop Dog concerts.
I was at this concert, I will never forget it, wish they had the rest of the entrance where Dr. funkenstein walked down the stairs of the mothership, that was something to behold.

Wow!! the Beautiful...soothing, feel it in your soul!! vocals of the late great Glenn Goins is just Heavenly on the Mothership connection song, as well as the landing of the mothership on stage... totally copesthetic!!
I can say I saw the mother ship land, and the whole experience was awesome. This is when cats played music and had a hell of a stage show. To the entire P-Funk clan Thank you
Dang George with all of the technology nowadays get some sponsors and good promotion u can tour with a mothership landing theme I ll betcha u will sell out venues everywhere please!!!!
Growing up in New Orleans ya always hear old cats tell stories about they was at the Municipal Auditorium when/where the Mother ship land first landed. I couldn't imagine seeing this shit live WOW!
I was too young for the first generation Mothership, but their 95/96 Mothership ReConnection Tour was nearly as epic. That is the Smithsonian Mothership.
My dad took 2 oakland coliseum n 1977 best concert til this day 4 me I loved G C growing up as a kid from album covers 2 parliament live poster n the album.
Best concert ever very creative, daribg, genius, innovative. George wore long blonde eig, half naked, smoked weed coning from other planet. We love George!!!!!
Remember when they use to land the Mothership back in the day. Seen George back in May, still funking. A lot of the band is gone. They are riding on the Mothership
@@dee1380 No. They're DEFINITELY not ready! I'm Darryl Dixon. I took Maceo's place on sax when he and Fred Wesley went with Bootsy. Glenn and I left P-Funk at the same time, so I was on stage every night of the Earth Tour. I also feel sorry for the people in the audience of the Parliament-Funkadelic concerts now. They have absolutely no idea of how it was back in 1977 when I was in the band. If they like it now, they would have lost their minds back then. TRUST ME!!
I have experienced the "P" 10 times. Seeing George August 18th 2023. "Funk or Walk" I did not come here to go slow, I only came to dance the dance to take me home.
THIS IS NOT A CONCERT...THIS IS AN EXPERIENCE, THE MOTHERSHIP HAS LANDED!
number one of funk
Its a spectacle
The first time I saw the landing of the mothership I was thoroughly “medicated” and that sucker looked like something from sci fi outer space! Loved it!!!!!!!!! Been a funkateer since forever and ain’t never gonna stop
I wish I could've been there!
Understand🤸
Best Funk band of all time - It aint even close.

I was there also
I wish I could've been there
Glen Goins was one of, if not the best vocalist ever to sing anything R&B!!!!!
George Clinton surrounded himself with great musicians
Right!! As the late Queen Of Soul (Ms. Mallia Franklin) has been quoted saying: "Super talented People recognize Super talent in Others!!!! 🤗❤️👍🏼
My man Bernie (key to the P) Worell holding it down baby!!
RIP on the mothership!!!
Nobody today even comes close to this.. 🛸👍🏼
For long
Not possible
I am 7
They were BadAss in those days Band was full of guitar Gunslingers George was full of ideas miss those days
I saw this concert in Dallas, I still think this was one of the best concerts I have attended!!! The spaceship coming across the arena!!
Glenn sang that Mothership in ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾💯
Yessssss❤🤟🏿

These brothers were a head of their time 2023
Say that again!!

FUNK NEVER GETS OLD, IT JUST GETS STRONGER
As it goes onna
You haven't seen INCREDIBLE until you've seen the Mothership land.I was 16 at the Old Felt forum in NYC.
One of the greatest performances in MUSIC HISTORY!!!
Yes
Glen Goins brought the mothership down with that voice.
Voice of Glen Goins was rare form
This is when music was fun real musicians real people sinfonia audio tunes
Waa😂😅
✊🏽🤝🏽🍻💯🖤
Ohio 🎨. The concert was wild! We went crazy when the mothership came from nowhere and landed. The band had more smoke in the air than the early Snoop Dog concerts.
I'm embarrassed to say this is the first I have heard these guys live. Every musician is spot on. This is the ultimate live show!
Impressive isn't it? Just like Zappa the outrageous stuff gets talked about the most.....but the musicianship is top shelf.
My friend, even past their heyday, in their "revival era" of the 90s, their shows were absolutely epic.
I was 18 years old when I got to listen to music. ❤😂
I love the fact that you can tell Prince got a lot of his inspiration for tha funk from these guys.
Greatest prop ever used in a live concert. You had to be there!
💯🎯
Yes I’m also a funkateer, seen the mothership come down in Philly 👍🏽😀I went craaaazy
I saw them live in the Oakland coliseum. Funk on the green! Man those were the best concerts ever!!!!😎🤙🏾 Funkateer over here forever!!!
I was 12 years old and Glenn sent chills down my spine I will never forget

I fly
I listen to Funkadellic since I’m 17. I’ m 52. Thank you .
When Glenn comes on, I lose my mind!
Gary was in love with my friend and she was in love with Glenn!!❤❤
Nothing compares to this
I was there. Absolutely nothing comes close.
@@deronbooze859 In your opinion of course.
These guys was off the chain in the Seventies alone with Bootsie Collins
I can say I saw the mother ship land, and the whole experience was awesome. This is when cats played music and had a hell of a stage show.
To the entire P-Funk clan
