ped mall
My friend Jeffrey Morgan says this picture is proof that we were the first musicians on the ped mall. Some people have pointed out that sometimes people would actually be in the fountain.
In those days I wasn't really very good at the banjo. Michael McCandless was a well known fiddler, though, and had a lot of friends. I'm not sure what happened to him.
Lest you think we were a real band, we weren't. We were just messing around.
