Here is a poster from the

Meadowbrook Musical Arts Center in

Gilford, New Hampshire...

...one of 8 shows we did this past August

with the First Annual Hippiefest tour...

We backed up

Felix Cavaliere from The Rascals,

Terry Sylvester from The Hollies,

Joey Molland from Badfinger,

Denny Laine from Moody Blues and Wings

and Mitch Ryder (who was not on this show)...

Other acts on some of the shows were

Canned Heat and Janis Ian.

It was a blast working with all the artists.

Everyone on the tour got along great on and offstage and performed spectacular

every night.

The concept proved successful and will be

playing some more dates this year

as well as carrying on for Summer 2007

with some additional acts.
