DMS: Off The Chain!!
by MauMauSistah on 6/2/11Variety Playhouse - AtlantaRating: 5 out of 5The genius of George Duke, Marcus Miller, and David Sanborn was on display and in full effect Monday night. Although the concert started late (closer to 8:30 than the stated time of 8 PM), and ended roughly 90 minutes later (around 10 or so), the nonstop musical joyride was incredible. Hit after hit after hit featuring each musician was a triple treat. My favorites were Marcus Miller's Tunisian-inspired piece that's in regular rotation on the jazz stations; George Duke's "Dookey Stick", and the (surprise!) rousing rendition of Marcus Miller's hit penned for E.U. ("Da Butt"). It ended all too soon. The venue was too small, though, for the CD signing afterward (although the intimacy of the theater allowed the audience to be more involved with the artists, especially with Duke's theatrics associated with "No Rhyme, No Reason"). I love these guys!!
