I'm so not-in-the-know that I don't even know what P-Funk is. But Happy Birthday to George Clinton anyways!
Here's what Wiki states about P-Funk.

I can't believe you never heard of Parliment-Funkedelic? Since I grew up with jazz, Motown, blues, etc. discovering them in the early 70's was cool.

I was mainly (as a kid, then teenager) into Pop (then also disco) during the '70s, also was crazy about a whole lot of Motown music (though at the time I pretty much, for the most part, mentally considered it as together with the Pop, as there were the Jackson Five, Fifth Dimension, Four Tops, Stevie Wonder, Smoky Robinson, etc., that were putting out catchy often up-tempo Pop type hits). I wasn't into Jazz any back then, and regarding blues mainly into the much older stuff (Billie Holliday, etc.) from prior to the '50s.

Brat - thanks, I did enjoy that. What a great performance. Hey gen, you should check that out. That first song, "Standing On the Verge of Getting It On," is one of my faves by them. They have a brilliant album of the same title, considered a fan favorite - "Vital Juices" is one of my absolute fave jams off it. It's ridiculous! The album that contains that second song, "One Nation Under a Groove," (of the same title) is unavailable in maybe all formats, unfortunately. I never saw the P in the seventies, but I am a big fan of theirs. I've seen them in concert around 5-6 times and they always satisfy. Long live the Doctor!!!!!!!!!!!!! Doctor Funkenstein aka George Clinton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Btw, Cell, I suspect we may possibly be in the same general age bracket - though I'm not quite sure. (I know how brat's and my ages compare [but for the sake of not wanting the TMDb world to know too much of our business will be kind to both she and I and not do any elaborating].)

I keep forgetting brat is a female.

brat, during our first year or so here, thought I'm female (gen standing for Genevieve or the such; actually also at least a few others thought the same, for a while). (FYI: gen is for genealogist.)

Interesting. And the "plant?" What does that stand for?

Nothing exciting: planting or plants, as landscaping is another of my interests (mainly a past-tense interest from during the first decade of this century when I completely re-landscaped my property, therefore was feeling gung ho about planting/plants back then).
My TMDb username has no actual relevance to anything within the movies/t.v. realm - simply got carried over from IMDb, where I created this username circa 2008. When I started on TMDb, I decided to carry the same name over to here, so I'd be recognizable to others in the classic films crowd. Unfortunately, seemingly none of those people (literally no one I knew from IMDb) wound up on TMDb. Therefore, I've now and then regretted that I didn't create a new username for here.
Btw, the "29" of my username simply is part of my phone #.

I was thinking something very similar to what you were thinking... it felt so strange, coming over here from what was the IMDb boards. I decided I'd keep some remnant of my old name, "Satchmo Is Cool"... I came up with something on the fly, but eventually changed it to what I've got now.
I'm surprised I don't recall you from IMDb, that's weird.

On IMDb, I never visited or posted on the actual Classic Films general forum, instead solely posted on the specific boards for individual movies, shows, and actors/actresses. It wasn't til the final week of being on IMDb that I even discovered a dedicated Classic Films forum existed there. (Actually, I had kinda noticed, in passing, at times, throughout the years, that it existed, but never bothered to explore and see what was happening there.)
So, on IMDb, if you'd have ever seen me anywhere, it would have been on the boards of individual specific movies (especially silents and Pre-Codes, which I've always particularly enjoyed that overall roughly 1915-1934 era, and about which there were always lots of people posting [unlike on TMDb, where normally solely I do]) and the actors/actresses thereof, also occasionally, but not often, about certain t.v. series - never on any general (or for anything "trendy") board. That's why trolls were pretty much an alien concept to me when I came here. Everyone else was saying how bad it was on IMDb, and I just kept thinking, "What trolls? Everyone I ever encountered on IMDb was nice, polite Classic Films fans, who never were any problem at all."

In perfectly unrelated news, George Clinton, who sang, "I mo be yo dog foreva," has joined the "Q-dogs".... as in Omega Psi Phi fraternity. I saw this on Instagram.
I'm for black unity, but to be honest, I never saw it coming...
Oh yeah, congrats, G.C.!!!!!!!

OK now I get it. I wasn't sure if I could see Clinton stepping and all that...
