    I was there. I remember before the show the advertisements said they would be "under water". We were asking ourselves "what in the world is PFunk gonna do this time?!?!" We really didn't know what they were going to do. Then after a good 90 minutes of a typicl PFunk concert there was a break....(Bernie solo on keys for a while) ....then the band came back and the whole stage was set up like a fish tank! The large tinsel strips blowing behind the rock had the appearance of bubbles just like a fish tank! Band members in angel fish costumes "swimming" back and forth! Talk about trippin! After the show we were like PFunk did it again!

    This was the very first concert I saw. It's very awesome to see this. What a show this was to see live in person. From a time in history when concerts were truely concerts. George is brilliant and was way ahead of his time and had the most unique concerts that I evered witnessed. Truely the funkiest man on the planet of all times.

    They were in Hampton,Va in February 79 with this show. If you're enjoying this now, then you can imagine how it was live! The only group that could rival with their shows was EWF. Lasers were used in the lighting scheme to make it look like it was under water. It was so many people there, they ended up bringing the dogs to control the crowd.
