Just lastnight I was skating around a local Mpls lake. I was with a a 
guitar playing friend.  We both were playing through our respective 
Pignose, doin the blues and light jazz.
 It was quite interesting and we generated quite a following. Until the 
bike patrol(police officers on bicycles) put a stop to us.  I have no 
idea what the problem was.  Everyone seemed to enjoy the music, clapping, 
hootin' hollerin' as we went by.  But we we're cited for disturbing the 
peace.  No charges brought up against us.  However our "weapons" we're 
confiscated and delivered back to us as we we're escorted back to our cars.

It's a pity don't have a better appreciation for music.
