The Horns of the Mean Machine: Andy Aaron, Billy and Clayton!!

At 9:15pm, Andy Aaron & the Mean Machine started their first set with a light jazz piece, followed by the smooth R&B sound of Sade's "Paradise", featuring the sultry sounds of the Mean Machine horns Andy Aaron himself (on trumpet), Billy (on sax) and Clayton (on trombone). The most interesting part of the performance was the beautiful keyboard solo of Winston, who was playing those riffs on the guitar!! From there, it got a little funkier with War's "Slippin' into Darkness" and James Brown's "Give It Up or Turnit a Loose" featuring some funky rhythm guitarisms by Winston. Winston handled the falsetto lead vocals on "People Make the World Go 'Round". The last song performed for the first set was James Brown's "I Got the Feelin' "....FUNKY HORNS and some damn good drumming from Soul-Patrol's own Lawrence Perry! The first set was over at 10:25pm.
