The music ends and the crowd is giving it back to the band when they jump out and surf their wave of applause in this very small venue. The fans oblige

The Main Squeeze are just in town for one night as they quest towards Punta Gorda Funk Fest to bring their groovy gospel to the people alongside bands like Lettuce, The Nth Power, Voodoo Visionary, Robert Randolph, and Joe Marcinek Band. They come into the evening a bit under the weather, but you wouldn’t know it from their playing. These guys rock! And jam! Annnnd groooove!
