Sly and the Family Stone will perform at First Avenue in Minneapolis on May 2. My guess is that the show will sell out. Though concert goers will have to be open to the possibility of disappointment, as Sly Stone has a history of doing extremely late or incomplete gigs.
In honor of the father of funk coming to Minneapolis, here's one of his hits. (I couldn't find a decent version of "Everyday People.")

$65 for a possible huge letdown? I'll probably be there against my better judgment, Sly is just that huge.
I hope Sly is healthy and gives a great performance. There have been too many disasterous shows among many career highlights. I write about these and more (including Sly's influence on the Minneapolis Sound) in my book about Sly. Check it out at http://www.lulu.com/content/1412956
