Like heralds of Galactus, the band @mangchihammer arrive amidst purple rays and cosmic dust on stage at the Republik, to alert the room that the funk is coming. Money Mark hits the keys, rocking a cooler bag helmet to ward off negative vibes. Eddie Kim takes control of the noisemakers, helmsman of the crew like Sulu with the Enterprise, only his flourishes are from the buttons he presses. Heather Leather floats in with her cape, the Bass Goddess ready to strike. Dylan Fujioka stomps towards the drums, a victory walk after breaking Yao Ming's ankles. Ceci warps in out of Austin Powers' universe to bring the love. And the circle completes with SteeBeeWeeBee, clad in coveralls, ready to work the crowd, with his chameleon goggles to scan for lizard people in his midst. And the funk arrives early. The funk paced itself, getting comfortable with a crowd not quite ready for its arrival. Although they may have been unprepared, the crowd soon attunes to the funk's presence. So much so that when it's about to take a break, the funk incites the crowd to crash into each other in frenzy, all in its name. The heralds have done what they came to do. Thank you, Mangchi for landing here in Honolulu, and I can't wait till your spaceship comes back. #TheseAreThePeopleThatIWantToBeWith (at The Republik)
