DUMPSTAPHUNK 3/17/12 Sol, Santa Fe, NM


Yep, still great. Possibly the funkiest band on the planet, though I'd love to witness a jam-off between them, Orgōne, and Galactic.

Last night of their tour before heading home. Surprise hit: David Bowie's "Fame." Who knew it could be that funky?

New drummer Nikki Glaspie (sp?) did a great job holding it down and letting the boys do their thang.

Check out an interview from KBAC with Ian and Nikki here...
