Generally a folk and bluegrass festival, the Hiawatha decides to schedule a rock band for the kids. The kids, some for the first time, indeed experience rock.

This session goes great and Ed heads back to Chicago to begin the mixes. Discussion begins about changing the name of the band for the new release.
