Give Funky Thanks to the Mindfunk Allstars

The Mindfunk Allstars (listen here on MySpace) rock space-age synth funk officially endorsed by NASA* and are just coming off a gig on the International Space Station* (above). If someone remade "2001: A Space Odyssey," they'd be on the soundtrack*.

*Probably not true. But what is true is the stankalicious groove laid down by our friends in the Mindfunk Allstars. Your rump need some pre-Thankgiving shakin'? We got the cure. Join us this Wednesday at 8:00 p.m., no cover, 21+.

The Mindfunk Allstars Don't Play Baseball

After the marathon (boondoggle?) of last night's Major League Baseball All Star game, you might think you've had enough all stars for a while, even with territorial hero Justin Morneau (above) crossing home plate for the winning run.

But fret not, friends. Tomorrow night's HoDo Lounge musical guests, The Mindfunk Allstars (here, on MySpace), do not play baseball ... at least not professionally. Instead, they play an inebriating blend of grooving funk and whirling electronic bleeps (reminiscent of the Disco Biscuits or Fargo's late, great Snacktones) tailor made for marathon dance sessions. Perhaps you could show up wearing your Converse All Stars? Ha!

Yeah, bad joke. Show at 8:30 p.m., no cover, 21+.
