What an amazing venue, on an island. Riki is no stranger to this festival as he is originally from the area and is much loved. What a thrill for him. The band he is performing with had t-shirts made with Riki’s face split half young and half the old guy now. Should have gotten a pic before he left for Ontario. This is the young face from one of his albums when he recorded as Arthur Gee. A wonderful kind soul who has had a very interesting life.
