They didn't get started until about 7:15 and proceeded to play 15 min of  phenomenal improvisation.  Cooper-Moore played his homemade banjo.  We  had Hamid on the small drum that stands on it's side when at rest.   Everyone sat in a line.  William did get up to go play some gongs at one  point.  The music was phenomenal and the invocation told us we are in  for another great one.  It gelled so nicely.  It was also very melodic  at times.  I loved it.
