I just loaded up some more really cool video clips of Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings bringing the soul to Central Park Summerstage last Sunday. These vids can't compare to being in the presence of Ms. Jones and the Dap-Kings, but they should give you at least a taste of the raw energy and joyful noise that they make.

Adventurous Listening: Battles, Black Dice, Gang Gang Dance at SummerStage Battles, Black Dice, Gang Gang Dance Central Park Summerstage, 8/16/08 Three of New York's finest and most original bands shared the stage on Saturday for a free concert at Central Park SummerStage.

Summerstage’s final show was yesterday, Sunday August 17 and it was a doozie. Naomi Shelton and the Gospel Queens played first, followed by the Menahan Street Band, and finally by Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings.

You will recall that one of the highlights of my dancing career was getting to dance onstage with the inimitable Sharon Jones at the Apollo Theater in October of last year. Well it happened again today! I was at Central Park Summerstage to catch Sharon Jones with a bunch of friends of mine.

Today was the last show at SummerStage in Central Park. For those of you who don’t know Sharon Jones and The Dap-Kings, they are incredible live. Sharon is absolutely amazing, kicking and gyrating and screaming her head off in the hot, hot heat. The publicist let me sit against the stage with the security guys way in front of the VIP folks.
