Jamming to the very end of the day

We were all having such a grand time that the hours slipped right past us. We were jamming to the very end of the day.

Sometime after five o'clock, Mia -- that would be Mia from the Mia Johnson Band -- looked up and noticed that the nearly two hundred state troopers who'd been listening to the Rally's music and poetry had taken off. We were left with three trooper cars: more than enough to keep the peace, I might add.

Anyway, what a fitting end to the day. Mia and her band played in Valley Forge. The Band showed they can jump between straight-up rock grooves and swinging world beats as they jammed the late afternoon away.

Dave Quicks helped out on guitar; here you can barely see Rico Joseph on bass.


Here's Rico on bass with Tom Walling wailing away on drums.
All in all, what an awesome day.
