Now that fans have had a few days to come back down to earth and let their mind and bodies detox after what was a thrilling New Year’s Eve weekend last week, more videos from some of the holiday shows are starting to make their way onto the Internet.

In the final week of 2018, Dumpstaphunk was busy playing for their fans out west last week. Two shows from the popular funk band in San Francisco (December 28th) and Denver (December 31st) featured notable end-of-the-year sit-ins from counterculture legend and newly minted MasterClass professor Carlos Santana, cannabis enthusiast/Ween guitarist Dean Ween, and Funkadelic guitarist Michael “Kidd Funkadelic” Hampton.

Santana was the first to join Dumpstaphunk on stage during their December 28th performance at The Fillmore San Francisco. The band was in town opening up for Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe, and Santana happened to be at the show as the guest of Sly & The Family Stone drummer and frequent Dumpstaphunk collaborator, Greg Errico. Santana’s surprise sit-in with the group was reportedly so spur-of-the-moment, in fact, that he didn’t even have a guitar to play when asked if he’d like to join in on the fun, forcing Dumpstaphunk guitarist Tony Hall to lend Santana his Fender Stratocaster and take up the bass for their cover of Buddy Miles Express’ “United Nations Stomp”. Even without his trademark PRS, Santana shredded his way through the song’s guitar solo. The entire sit-in, beginning with Santana waiting for an introduction at the side of the stage, can be watched below.

The band’s on-stage jam with Deaner and Kidd Funkadelic came a few nights later during their double-billed show at the Cervantes Masterpiece Ballroom in Dever on New Year’s Eve. Dean Ween (a.k.a. Mickey Melchiondo) had opened up the show with his Dean Ween Group, leaving Dumpstaphunk to take the audience into 2019 during their closing set. After helping Dumpstaphunk count down to the start of the new year, Ween and Kidd Funkadelic remained on stage to jam out to a pair of Parliament-Funkadelic tunes, “Up For The Down Stroke” and “Unfunky UFO”. A video of the 25-minute, nonstop jam was shared by the band to their Facebook, and can be watched in full below.

Santana was one of the featured names included in BottleRock Napa‘s 2019 lineup announcement on Monday.  The Memorial Day Weekend festival is just one of the stops on Santana’s 2019 tour schedule in support of his recently-announced forthcoming studio EP, In Search Of Mona Lisa.
