A very sweet band from NC

Saw this band, the Carolina Chocolate Drops, perform *free* at the Kennedy Center last night - thanks to Alex who asked me along. The concert was held in the experimental theater, and it was certainly not quite what we expected.

An adorable, Walker-family-esque couple taught any of us brave enough to come down to the front stage to clog before the band came on. Turned out we wound up dancing the entire show. Everyone, dancers and non, had a great time - it really renewed my fervor for (free!) sweet events that bring people together in random ways. And reinforced my belief that dancing should happen waaaay more often than it does. Especially to music as unique and fun as the Chocolate Drops.
