Bootsy Collins May or May Not be Aware He's Signed On for BandFuse: Rock Legends

No press release quote, and it's not like he says anything in this trailer. I think someone may have just handed him a bass and started filming without telling him what it was for.

Does this game bring anything new to the table? Rock Band already supports using actual instruments to play. All the bands mentioned already appear in Rock Band as well.

Bass playing god in the P-funk collective of George Clinton (ie he played with Parliament & Funkadelic), as well as a member of James Brown's band in the 60s. If you listen to hip-hop then at some point you've heard his music sampled

Or, if still you don't know him, he's the star glassed guy in the video to Deee-lite's Groove is in the heart, and also the singer on Fatboy Slim's weapon of choice.

I am pissed. I was led to believe this video featured a lot of Bootsy and was going hear him play bass. Instead I got bullshit and lame-ass rock.

I'll be honest, I didn't like that when I was a kid. But hearing it now, it's pretty rad

I am aware of who James Brown is. That's about as far as I get.

Bootsy Collins and Zakk Wylde... now there's a match made in the deepest pits of hell. Why not Captain Beefheart and Fred Durst?
