#STC12 The Rough Drafts Music Jam

This is a story best told in pictures.

Before the gig . . .

First set kicked off with the core band warming up the crowd and getting a soundcheck on the fly.

The dance floor filled up fast, thanks to Tommy's great set list. We open with Elvis' "Good Rockin' Tonight" to get the party started.
Lucky me, I'm on bass.

First jammers out of the box are Tristan Bishop on keys and vocals and Steven Jong singing lead. Was it "Honky Tonk Woman"?

The Weight features Kai Weber and Elizabeth Barteau on vocals with Ryan Williams on bass.

Love Me Like a Man - I get to sing my favorite song, thanks to Bruce Poropat on bass. Also featured is Stephen Adler on guitar. "Darlin' I know you can." Bruce Poropat also plays a mean electric guitar as we soon found out.

Second set kicked it up a notch with a tribute to our host Chapter and Summit location. Finale set welcomed everybody back to the stage.

And the award for Educator, and badass sexiest tech comm musician ever! goes to our own Dr. Tommy Barker.

At the after party we just could not let the evening stop. To quote Chris Kristofferson, Janis Joplin, and Betsy Maaks, "We sang every song that driver knew."
