DONOVAN AND COMPANY SHARP 9 FRIDAY 6/8/18

Donovan -leader/drums, Autumn - vocals, Andrew - piano,  Chris - bass.  I reckon Mr. Cheatham was paying attention to that portion of the professor's lecture that said make sure you do what it takes to get good and then make sure you surround yourself with good folks performing with you.  This should be a smokin' session!
