The Birth Of The Church Of Funkentology

Estimated read time 6 min read

The Church of Funkentology is a religion by definition but a social organization by design. Our mission is to promote, protect, preserve and spread The Funk. We are in our formative stages, but our long term goal is for The Church of Funkentology to be the definitive resource and temple for The Funk. Listening to Funk music, or any music for that matter, is our act of devotion. We worship in front of stages and speakers. There is no “god,” but a central spiritual power we turn to, and that is The Funk. The Funk is a spirit, an essence and a fiery force.

New Orleans Suspects – March 14th – Cervantes’ Ballroom

Estimated read time 3 min read

While Cervantes’ Ballroom wasn’t packed Last Friday night, it was nice that there was room to dance, chat with friends between songs, and not have to swim through a sea of humanity just to make it to the bar. The 20 somethings had packed The Other Side for Twiddle so it was a bit of an older crowd who danced the night away to Americana courtesy of a retooled Great American Taxi and some New Orleans Funk from New Orleans Suspects.
