[@spitfirered]

I took my Kids To This Concert In 1984 In St. Petersburg Florida, We All Loved Them and It Was A Lot Of Fun, Thanks For The Memories, My Kids Are Now In Their Late 40's and still love them!

[@therndabt]

Real artist who can actually sing and play instruments live.

[@MickyTubbs1985]

Yes indeed; it IS a rarity in this day and age.And those accomplished artists ARE DEFINITELY from a bygone era when ONE'S due diligence to ONE'S craft was " expected " if WANTED " RESPECT."

[@michaelwyckoff7593]

Still sounds good in 2024 damn.😊😊

[@carmelcapricorn7701]

One of my favorites bands. 👏😃📻

[@1980Triumph]

Second only to The Jacksons that year, Kool and the Gang was easily the second best touring band that year (1984). They could switch up to soul, funk, rock, and jazz without missing a beat and did all genre's as good or better than any other act. Also JT is in full mastery mode, he has total command of the stage. I love the Gang!!!!

[@MJbr2]

Am I allowed to join the party?

[@mikegiles9702]

Kool and Gang was bum is hell they quit a tour with the Gap band cause they couldn't fuck with them

[@blachubear]

These tours plus The Lionel Richie's "Can't Slow Down Tour with Special Guest Tina Turner & of course later on that year "The Purple Rain Tour" with Prince. And I have to honorably mention The Fresh Fest Tour featuring Run-D.M.C. & Whodini.

[@kamelattit8110]

I'm glad to watch that live. Very great performance from Kool and the gang. It reminds me the same performance i watched them live in Paris 1984. It was with Earth wind and fire the best energetic performance ever. May God give Mercy to this people who provide love and peace in the music

[@feliperodriguez8050]

Saw Kool in the Gang at Fort Bragg NC while stationed (82nd Airborne Division)was19 yrs and then saw them again at my homeland Puerto Rico Jan10/1986. Got to admit till now the best 2 concerts I been to!!

I've always loved Kool And The Gang! Their music brings back great memories for me. These men were simply pure talent all around & really sang & played real instruments....LIVE!!! No faking of any kind. No lip-syncing etc;. Such beautiful voices & such wonderful, happy & peace loving music. ADORABLE guys & their outfits, TOTALLY 80's chic!!!😄 May all deceased Kool & The Gang band members RIP eternally.🙏 Your loved ones, friends & fans miss you all very much & will always keep your lives, your music and your memories alive forever more.🙏 Thank you, Kool And The Gang, for your gifts and your music!

Great choreography and JT with his 4 octave voice

[@montoyareed6150]

They came to New Orleans when I was about 10 years old. I waited the entire parade just to get a glimpse of them on the float. I still remember seeing them and the excitement from everyone in the streets. I also had a crush on J.T.

[@michaelwyckoff7593]

One of the best live shows of all time.

[@johnm2617]

In the early 80's! Loved these guys ! We listened to them in the locker room before football games ! And our warm ups < alot of their music just gets you moving < The good old days < 50 years ago !!

Get Down On It never sounded better. Damn what a hell of a performance of this classic song JT at his very best.😊

[@Hotdogger808]

I was lucky enough to live through these special years as a teenager and JT and the band were my go to for funky grooves. Few will ever emulate this sort of creativity and talent again in my opinion. You had to be there living the 80's to understand. Those who were there, you know what i'm talking about, for those who missed out, well I would highly recommend you go make a mix tape (playlist) with some of these timeless classics.....

This show was done at my hometown New Orleans during The 1984 World's Far. I didn't attend this show but this brings back memories going to The World's Fair. It's unfortunate that The World's Fair was a failure in The Big Easy. Oh well, thanks for posting this concert. Oh yeah "Why the song "Joanna" was cut out of this concert? That's a classic. And I would had been a little tick if I went to this show and they didn't play "Jungle Boogie" another classic.
