In a shock turn of events, T-ski is unable to perform at this gig because of health reasons and the Professors are forced to play as a quartet at very short notice. Doug Frank, reporter with the Rutgers Focus, sits in on harmonica. Radford debuts two new songs: Breakers and Foucault Funk: The Michel Foucault Postmodern Blues, co-written with Stephen Cooper and Marie Radford.

Following the set, friends of the Professors take part in a lively jam session which had the audience dancing and shouting for more. Silvio Waisbord of Rutgers University took a turn on lead guitar, much to the delight of a partisan Rutgers crowd. Gary Brill of Glass Planet took over the skins from Kubey for the spirited jam.

Finally, the Professors were honored to have the legendary blues-rock guitarist Jon Paris lead a brilliant set of rock-and-roll standards, with superlative support on bass from Steve Cooper, which left the crowd screaming for encores.

The evening ended with Gary's daughter, Meg Radford, just six years old, taking the microphone and giving a beautiful performance of The Sammy Song, a song about her stuffed dog Sammy, written with her Dad.
