“A waft in the air, one I recognise...  it's Pete Cornelius and the DeVilles for entree.  Pete's guitar playing is even slicker and his dad Bruce on drums and Phil on bass makes your ribs vibrate.  This year a little blond entree with red cap named VJ King Jr (age 12 or less) played lead guitar duels with Pete (now18) on his sixth year at the Festival.  The music we love is in good hands. ”

“Pete doesn't simmer over low heat; it's salt in the fire straight up. Being the last act for the night in this tent, Pete had time to serve up a full course and extras... while the little red cap of the young entree sat patiently awaiting his moments of glory for encore. And an extended encore it had to be as the little fella on the MC's shoulders and Pete dwelled at their ovens. ”
