I only saw them that one time, back then. Seen them a couple more times since then. Once at Schaeffer's Crawfish Boil and again at a free concert with Collective Soul, in Centennial Olympic Park prior to one of the Bama neutral openers in the GADome. I did own and wear out the CDs for both Whisper Tames The Lion and Mystery Road.

Had friends at UGA and Auburn at the time. Between that and a couple of local shows they were almost a staple of shows. I honestly think I saw them at least 3 times at the War Eagle Supper Club. I hate Auburn with a passion but they had some good shows there.
 
Absolutely love me some funk. My favorite Cameo song, She's Strange. These guys made some great music.

Saw Cameo, The Gap Band, and Tenna Marie years ago in San Diego.



I had my G.A.P. Band, Grand Master Flash and the Furious Five, Morris Day and the Time, Dazz Band, George Clinton, Parliament, etc. years.

BUT, in honor of his passing:

 
I have some good friends who met the 🌶 Peppers in a recording studio in Cali and partied with them for two days ...... They sent pics back home to rub it in . My friends never made it big but they cut two or three albums and played the Roxie a few times .
Terry,
Saw them at Legion Field, May 1994. Row 10, center stage. Best concert EVER! David Gilmour playing a Steel Guitar, sounding like Nashville on acid!

I can just ride for days alone listening to these guys shred a guitar. They can get after it. Mix them with some JJ Grey and Mofro to add some swamp blues and I'm all good.





A few years ago, the two main guys and their new bands - Cody Canada and the Departed and Jason Boland and the Stragglers - played at Terminal West in Atlanta. That was a hell of a show. I really like CC Ragweed, particularly 17 in your hometown and their Alabama song.
 
Saw driving and crying at Alabama Theatre onNew years eve back in 1990 with a good crew

I saw them a couple of years later on the strip (that bar that used to be a new venue every other year, the one across from the Houndstooth). What a show! I wasn't working very much so that last beer I bought was nursed carefully til the encore when they played "Straight to Hell."
 
Lots of good ones already mentioned but here's one of my favorites.


We lived in Albany GA when I was in the Navy and our next door neighbor was a guy that played guitar for them. He smoked a lot of weed. He was gone a lot on tour. This was in the early 70s. This was a trailer park or if you want to be cosmopolitan the Mobile country club.
