George Clinton & P-Funk at Cane's in San Diego, California. 29 September 2003.
Ain't no party like the P-Funk party, 'cause the P-Funk party don't stop. At any given time during a P-Funk show there are anywhere from 15-25 people on stage. More when they bring ladies up from the audience to dance. This controlled chaos usually goes on until the venue cuts power to the stage and forces the band to stop.
