    Maceo looked real good. The night was FILLED with high energy funk, which
    started with "Chicken" and "Pass the Peas" and ended with a 45 minute long
    ovation medley that included a slow grindin' "Elephant's Foot". Everything
    was real funky. What I loved to see was some older musicians gettin' down
    and dirty like they were and all the while staying real tight. His son was
    also there and rapped four of five songs, with Maceo dancing right along
    side. But the highlight of the night was when Stevie led the entire house
    in a sing-a-long of "I Need Some Money." You could tell even Maceo was
    giddy.
