In Bloom (Justyn Wilson, Carl B. Wilson, and Mario Tucker) were joined by cousin Wendy Wilson for “White Dog.” They also played their crowd-pleaser, “Crazy L'il Mouse” (featured in the Bandits movie soundtrack).

THE WILSONS

Carnie and Wendy Wilson paid tribute to their Uncle Carl with a lovely two-part harmony on “Heaven” and “God Only Knows.”

Robert Lamm sang a delightful duet with Jeffrey Foskett on Beckley-Lamm-Wilson's “Watchin' the Time Go By” and “Today.” They also performed Chicago's “Wishing You Were Here.”

AMERICA

America (featuring Dewey Bunnell, left, and Matthew Beckley, right, who subbed for ailing father Gerry) pleased the crowd with their classics “Ventura Highway” and “Horse With No Name.” They were joined by a surprise guest, former BB keyboardman Mike Meros.

INTERMISSION

There was one more item for auction -- a custom-made six-string Rickenbacker guitar, signed by every performer in the show. The winner was Jackie Love (Mike's wife). Billy Hinsche (left) and Jeffrey Foskett working the crowd during the auction. photo copyright ©2001, M. Dowdle Head
