When my editor at lawrence.com asked me to shoot the free George Clinton and the Parliament-Funkadelic I could not say no. This show was more fun than I ever expected, with openers Phantastics (Kansas City) bringing so much fun energy to the stage to prep audiences for the legend himself. When George Clinton appeared on stage with full band and stage entourage I was not prepared for all of the amazing music that would be provided, from old funk staples to new modern twists with a hip hop edge.  Lawrencians enjoyed the free concert as part of the 2nd annual Free State Festival activities. The 900 block of New Hampshire was transformed into an outdoor concert venue with audience filling the streets and lining the nearby parking garage to get a good view of the show. What a fun night! Thanks to the Free State Festival for bringing such a great group to town.
