BAM, with Maria Taylor, Nik Freitas, and Johnathan Rice

A jam session with Maria Taylor, Nik Freitas, and Johnathan Rice at BAM Fest in Chicago, 29 June 2008.

Song (by Nik Freitas): Sun Down

The backstory: Nik had already played a set and Maria came on later. Before she could even finish her first song, rain from a tarp covering the stage dumped on all of their equipment, and they decided not to play. Everyone in the audience was angry; some of us (about 10-15?) went to wait under an awning of an apartment building until it stopped pouring. Suddenly, Nik, Maria, and Johnathan all show up with their acoustics and say they're going to play for us right there. I can't even begin to describe how amazing it was, bumping into Nik's guitar!

Hmmm...don't remember anyone stepping on my bag. I was the one with a sort of funky old camera; I had a blue jacket on.
