Livin in America...

I was browsing though Youtube and came across an interview with James Brown, but he is tanked out of his mind.. Too funny.
I had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Brown perform before he passed. It was a few years back and he opened for the String Cheese Incident in Steamboat Springs for 4th of July. He sang all the greats and was crazy dancing on stage. But really got me was that he spent over 80% of the show turned with his back to the audience. He would only turn around for the vocals that he had to sing, and then would turn back around and face the band. When he did turn around, it looked like he had had too much plastic surgery in his life or was completely botoxed out. Kinda freaky.
But he sang everything you would want to hear from James Brown and more.
In the spirit of the season, here is Mr. James Brown, drunk doing an interview after his release from jail for abuse charges against his wife.
too classic.
enjoy
