George Clinton & P Funk @ Beale Street Music Festival

George Clinton & P Funk

Budweiser Stage • 9:30 p.m.

It's not a party until the mothership lands: Expect perennial P-Funkster George Clinton to take the Beale Street Music Festival to a higher level this year. Now pushing 70, Clinton remains an elevating, energetic force on stage. Whether the funk pioneer and his ragtag band of rock-soul compatriots decide to work their way through hits like "Maggot Brain" or "Flashlight," you can bet that a packed crowd will be moving and grooving to their cosmic beat.
