University Police officer Charles Gatewood arrested a seemingly “very, very” ine­ briated Lance Foster Hull, 18, for pulling a fire alarm at the Grizzly Pool, Gatewood said. After being arrested, Hull admitted starting a small fire r t an arson felony — with papers on the third floor of Duniway Hall, according to Justice Court records.

David Geffen signed Black ‘N Blue to his label in ‘84 and they recorded four albums, the last two produced by KISS’ Gene Simmons. Tommy Thayer joined the KISS family at the sounding board and as a musical contributor. Over the years he co-wrote songs and produced CD and DVD projects for the band including the title montage for New Line Cinema’s “Detroit Rock City”.

  • Bootsy Collins
    “Ispirato da Jimi Hendrix e istruito da non meno un'autorità quale James Brown, Bootsy ha calpestato la sua strada attraverso gli ultimi 40 anni di storia della musica. E 'stato inserito nella Rock' n 'Roll Hall of Fame insieme ad altri membri dei Parliament-Funkadelic.” JB’S & JAMES BROWN Nato il 26/10/1951 a Cincinnati, nell’OHIO, William già dall'infanzia cercava contatti col mondo della musica. Inizia a suonare negli anni 60 con suo fratello maggiore Phelps "Catfish" Collins, Frankie "Kash" Waddy e Philippe Wynne, formando così The Pacemakers. Erano poco conosciuti al di fuori di Cincinnati, fino al 1969. Dopo che la maggior parte della band di James Brown uscì per una disputa di paga, fu proprio lo stesso James Brown che chiese al suo agente Bobby Byrd di cercare una band in sostituzione. The Pacemakers sono stati assunti nel 1970 in sostituzione diventando così i JB’s (indicati spesso come Original per non confonderli con le band future). “Stavamo preparando un pomeriggio di musica sul Viale Gilbert e all'improvviso abbiamo avuto una chiamata da Bobby Byrd. Inizialmente abbiamo pensato che fosse uno scherzo ma Bobby era molto sicuro. Mi disse che "lì" avessero bisogno subito di noi e che massimo tra un'ora dovevamo essere alla corte di James. Nessuno ci credeva fino a quando siamo arrivati in aeroporto. Abbiamo volato a Columbus, in Georgia, sul Jet privato di James. Non avevo la più pallida idea riguardo quello che stesse succedendo. Prima di arrivare dal sig. Brown vedemmo andare via dalla sua "corte "il trombettista Richard "Kush" Griffith sicuramente non felice.

Legendary for his contribution to James Brown and The J.B.s and to Parliament-Funkadelic and to his own band, Bootsy’s Rubber Band, and to many, many, many years of hits.

  • Review Bootsy Collins and Contemporary Youth Orchestra In
    Review Bootsy Collins and Contemporary Youth Orchestra in “Rock the Orchestra” at CSU (May 17) by Mike Telin Since 2001, the Contemporary Youth Orchestra un- der the direction of its always-creative founder and music director Liza Grossman, have presented an end-of-season Rock the Orchestra concert. Past con- certs have given CYO members the chance to work with some of the greats from the world of Rock in- cluding the likes of Graham Nash, Jon Anderson, Pat Benatar, Donnie Iris and Jefferson Starship. On Fri- day, May 17 in Cleveland State University’s Waetjen Auditorium, legendary funk bassist Bootsy Collins joined forces with CYO in an electrifying concert ti- tled Psychotic Bump School. But this concert amounted to far more than a celebrated artist playing his or her beloved tunes backed up by an orchestra; this performance was all about the collaborative nature of music. Collins, the CYO, the 57-member Campus International School Bootsy Choir under the direction of Janice Fields Pohl, and his own band — Keith Cheatham, guitar, “Monster” Mike Cobb, bass, Ken “BAM” Smith, drums, Zac Adams, Candice Cheatham and Lauren Mallory, vocals — plus some cool dance steps by Patti Collins, all added up to one gigantic music-making and dancing machine. 9<83838-388+>3&3663+7+<699>=C96638=I<=>1+38/.38>/<8+>398+6+>>/8>39838 his late teens when he began touring with James Brown.

Reg. 60185. George Clinton (“Clinton”) submitted informal objections on August 25, 2014, id. at 60186, and hereby submits through his undersigned counsel his formal comments objecting to the proposed settlement and distribution. INTRODUCTION George Clinton is the Godfather of Funk and a national treasure. A recording artist since 1959, Clinton is one of the most important musicians of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. In Parliament and Funkadelic, musical groups he formed and led, he scored more than forty hit singles in the 1970s, including four R&B number ones: Parliament’s “Flash Light” and “Aqua Boogie (A Psychoalphadiscobetabioaquadoloop),” and Funkadelic’s million-selling “One Nation Under A Groove” and “(Not Just) Knee Deep.” Clinton, along with fifteen other members of Parliament and Funkadelic, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997. In 2011, the Smithsonian Institution acquired the Mothership, the flying saucer from which Clinton’s groups once embarked to begin concert performances, to anchor the National Museum of African American History’s inaugural exhibition.1 In 2012, Berklee College of Music awarded Clinton an honorary doctorate.
