They played at the Pearl St. Night Club, and I was able to make my way up to the front row. The last song they played was the song I was waiting for them to play the entire time, my favorite, "The Garden (Part III)". As I was singing along to the words and dancing, the beautiful Trevor Garrod, keyboardist and vocalist, looked right at me and smiled during the moment of, "got a little bit a soul, got a little bit a rock n' roll in my bones..."
It was epic.
That familiar voice, from all the years of listening to it, singing right back to me as we flirted.
It was definitely one of those celebrity moments, where the audience and stage become one.

"The Garden (Part III)" on Taught To Be Proud, by Tea Leaf Green
Got a little bit a soul,
Got a little bit a rock n' roll in my bones,
Don't you bury me when I'm old,
I may need 'em when I'm reborn,
When I'm reborn.
The garden that you planted is doin' well,
I thought you'd like to know,
The roses are growin' on the hound dog's bones,
It reminds me of the time, I told you long ago.
Darlin' let's let our hair grow long,
We can work on a farm, maybe live on a mountain,
I got an old hound dog, likes to run,
Needs a lot of room, and he hates to be chained up.
Just like me, just like we are supposed to be,
Just like me, just like we are supposed to be,
Just like me, just like we are supposed to be,
Just like me, just like we are supposed to be.
The mountain's sinkin', the river's risin',
The sky's fallin', I fear I'm dyin',
The forest is creepin' in, and I cannot stop it,
I don't want to try now, I can't remember how,
I used to dream about them valley highways,
Before I was chained to this country by way,
And left me here, lettin' freedom tear us apart.
OOOOOHHHH!...

Just like me, just like we are supposed to be,
Just like me, just like we are supposed to be,
Just like me, just like we are supposed to be.
