VIDEO: Atlanta Funk Society Brings the Noise at Decatur Concert on the Square

Share

Before 9 o’clock the night had already been given to music. The Atlanta Funk Society played under a wash of purple lighting under the bandshell in Decatur Square. It was hard to count the numbers but I’d say my best guesstimate would be a few hundred people. The young and old. Those who bring lawn chairs and those who bring blankets. A solid Saturday crowd.
