I have seen the current War once live and have seen Lowrider countless times on The Blues Cruise. Lowrider has Howard Scott, Lee Oskar, and Harold Brown from the original War while Lonnie Johnson is the only original member in the current War lineup. Lowrider is awesome and plays with passion. They perform at least four times on each Blues Cruise and I make a point to catch every set. War is now just a cover band and, in my opinion, not worth going to see.

The only reason I saw War was because they were touring with Cheech and Chong...the real reason I went to the show.

If Cheech & Chong, or comedians like the late Redd Foxx/George Carlin were to spend a full day here...they would have at least a years worth of standup material. :D

War rocked the Savannah Center last night. Original member lead vocals/keyboardist Lonnie Jordan kept the audience totally engaged in the performance. The rest of the band was as good as it gets and got plenty of recognition.
From Me And Baby Brother to Gypsy Man and the hits in between the evening was non stop entertainment.

Along with the need for " Canned Laughter " and The " Laugh Track " very annoying.

You have not been experienced until you put on The World is a Ghetto album and play the song 'Four Cornered Room' with headphones on.
War ~ "Four Cornered Room" 1972 HQ - YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-M58TJkgR8)Listened to Four Cornered Room for the first time; it won't be the last. Thanks
