For those who don't know, there was a fabulous tribute for the Family Dog's Chet Helms, held at Golden Gate Park. Featuring Dan Hicks, The Charlatans, Country Joe Mcdonald, Blue Cheer, and many more. Ken performed with the Rowan Brothers and it is captured on the DVD. A must for fans of classic San Francisco music. (Find on Amazon, ect.)
