    Doc,

    It'd be dope if you came out but whatever you decide is cool. We're hoping for a good night and got some local hype...so we'll see how it turns out.

    Funk Night 2 finally drops the other funky shoe

    By Emily Ransom

    After a two-month absence, Mac???s Bar is bringing back the embryonic phenomenon known as Funk Night.

    Fathered by DJ_pi, Paul Karatsinides, DJ Breakself, Aaron Anderson and GAMBIT the MC, Hubert Sawyers II, the first edition of Funk Night back in September turned out to be the seed for many a Lansingite looking to cut loose. The infectious funk and soul issued forth by both dj???s came in the form of 45???s, (for those unaware, a 45 is a 7??? record that revolves at 45 revolutions per minute). GAMBIT???s silver tongue sustained the energetic audience with creative and capricious lyrical ruminations. ???I???m a Japanese gansta??? was one of GAMBIT???s catch phrases that kept the evening unconventional.

    This Saturday???s funk night will once again showcase the skills of DJ_pi, Breakself and GAMBIT the MC as well as the ass-shaking aptitude of funk music fanatics.

    Last time, the dance floor was the tramp of the night as good dancers, bad dancers and breakdancers showed it what-for. As GAMBIT says, ???everyones got that rhythm, white, black, yellow, green and brown.???

    ???It [funk night] gets the people down, punk kids, rock kids, they all come out to dance, and a lot of people sample funk,??? says GAMBIT. Sampling is the technique of taking a excerpt from one sound recording and reusing it as an element of a new recording. At Funk Night there is a ???name that tune??? recognition factor as you hear correlations to modern music.

    If you missed the gyrating hordes of humid bodies at Funk night last time, don???t miss a single sweaty splatter when the funk hits the fan this Saturday.

    how did it go....I called gambit. My son had an earache and we had to go to Flint to pick him up....boo.
  • gambitgambit 906 Posts
    It went okay. It wasn't as many people as the first, but people seemed to be enjoying themselves.
    I think we were at a disadvantage with the 11pm start time. Hopefully we can get a full night on the next go'round.
    Special shout to BreakSelf and Pi... always a pleasure fellas.

    Yeah, Gambit mentioned that your kid was feeling ill, that's a shame. Hope he's feeling better now...earaches used to be the worst!

    I had a great time drinking free beer and yelling at the crowd, though, as Gambit said, fewer people than last time. Still, a respectable turn out for sure.

    Hope you can make it to the next one...whenever that is.

    no he is not feeling better. He is going to need tubes.


    The next one should be some weekend in december as long as it is not the weekend of the 10th. Thank you.

    There are talks of the next night currently in the making. Last night was a lot of fun but the late start definetly affected the turn out. That and a bunch of people that told me they were coming out backed out.

    Its always a pleasure throwin down with you guys (gambit & breakself).
