Fishbone at The Dame: After two decades of touring, Angelo Moore has lost none of the abundant physicality or devilishly gleeful performance smarts that made Fishbone one of the prime punk/funk acts of the '80s and '90s. He took the stage dressed in a SpongeBob SquarePants tie (which, like his shirt, was discarded early in the two-hour concert). Moore and a mostly new Fishbone brigade ripped through the brassy ska of It All Kept Startin' Over Again and the rougher, more reggae-friendly Alcoholic with airtight grooves and a playful performance persona that fell somewhere between Frank Zappa and George Clinton. That meant no matter how precise the rhythm became, the band was always up for a good-humored surprise -- like an impromptu version of the surf classic Wipeout that was employed as a preface to Karma Tsunami. Moore remained tireless -- a one-man funk army with an electric grin and a seemingly unquenchable thirst for the perfect, punkish groove.
