Bootsy tour postponed; Bass Geek desolate

I'm considering a spree (negative in results) of some sort after receiving this MySpace bulletin:

James Brown fans and all true Funkateers, our James Brown tour has been backed up till after our Europe & Japan dates which are in June and July
so I can tell you now that it will be after we get back, so check the website for more currect detains which will be posted starting next week at:

www.bootsycollins.com

This hurts me as much as it hurts my fans JB's fans everybody, but it was out of our control. We hope you all understand our position and all we can do is funk you extra harder when we do funk.

Instead of one nut you get two.

That's the only way I know to make it up beings that it was not our fault in the first place, everybody was ready to go and they pulled the plug.

So we ain't gonna whimp out about it, we just gone be ready when the horn blow we will Pee-Red-to-Go!
Love & P-funk hugs and thanks for tha prayer's yall!
One Nation, One funk, One love baba!
Bootsy!!!

I was totally geeked up for this show, and my only consolation is that we were waiting for a check to come in to purchase tickets. I want rescheduled dates now. NOW.

Guitar Hero Promotes Real Guitar Playing?

According to this Wired article, the popularity of Guitar Hero is causing some folks to pick up the actual instrument and give it a go.

I'm all for getting into music and learning an instrument, but we've got too many guitarists already. Seriously, the streets are littered with them. From busking folk-singers to metal wannabes to plumed-hat-wearing SRV clones, everybody already picked up a guitar. Guitar Hero wouldn't have been a success if nobody wanted to play guitar already.

There aren't enough bassonists. Time for Bassoon Hero.
