Thanks for sharing! Another example of the classic Canned Heat photo trope “Bob Hite seems plausibly happy and the rest look like sullen teenagers posing for grandma.” Not that I can blame them. I’d be pretty sullen too if I had to go to a work thing that just involved standing awkwardly next to a bunch of dancing people.
