A couple of weeks ago, my boyfriend and I were walking past PGE Park when the official Rose Parade Tour Bus pulled up. A man standing next to us said excitedly to his friend (in a sort of hick sounding voice), "Hey! It's the Rose Festival Chicks! They're on the f***ing bus!"
I love Rose Festival Time.

I'm sure nobody there had ever seen anything like it before. The guy's playing his backwards-strung guitar with his teeth! "Downtown" and "Ferry 'Cross the Mersey" it isn't.
