So, John found himself in heaven this weekend at the Newport Folk Festival, the annual weekend that brings together an eclectic bunch of artists old and young for three days of music, dancing, and frolicking in the summer sun.

“I loved it when Whitney Mongé sang proud Mary to honor Tina Turner. And Goose the band had Animal from the Muppets play drums with them,” said John.
