that mofos OVERLOOK, fail to understand or acknowledge that go-go is the last bastion for BLACK (not capital B, but Capitol B) bands.
there's been a resurgence of bands in the DC area for the last couple years. it's no where near the level it was 10, 15 years ago (mainly cuz venues ain't trynna have bands with percussionist in their spots), but there's been an increase...tho' slight.
it's funny cuz folks that i've talked to would LOVE to have Chuck Brown's career. the man been tourin' and giggin' for damn near 40+ years! still releases albums that actually chart on Billboard. still sells out venues IF he decides to play. and he's 75 YEARS OLD!
but then again, this is The Lesson. so i shouldn't be surprised.
