Are any of our east-coast buddies going along to see this? Sounds like it should be a fantastic show, with most of the musicians coming from the best modern Afro-beat band around-Antibalas.
For those who don't know, Fela Anikulapo Kuti was the founder of afro-beat, a political activist and his songs funk along for 20 odd minutes just trashing governments, and other stuff he didn't like! Groovy beats, hefty horn section, african tribal rhythms and occasionally a Hammond B3.
My question for anyone who goes, can they replicate his stage presence?
