Is it? I dunno. Is that what Drew Carey looks like today?

I have excellent pics, and vids, but stuff is uploading slowly.  Besides mini-moog (expected) all acoustic bass and piano, much in the flavor of the Chicago period. Bonus, everyone was in costume! Marshall, wasn't there, but another old-timer was, Ray Copeland (Phidelphia?).  What a great show and my wife went holy bonkers out on the Sun Ra merch, which I have a pic of. Great to see that 20 and 30 year olds were there, which shows how the younger generations are appreciating this music!  Hnads down, one of the best concerts I've ever attended.

The Arkestra at Big Ears in March

Saw the same lineup a few months back here in Brisbane (Australia) - one of the best concerts I've seen. Vast majority of the audience were 20-30 year olds & so into it!.
