The tribute's (Alex Chilton tribute) singers and musicians formed what amounted to a local supergroup, featuring Susan Cowsill, solo artist and member of the Cowsills, Dave Pirner from rock band Soul Asylum, singer-songwriter Alex McMurray, Cowsill's sister-in-law, Vicki Peterson from the Bangles, and Rene Coman, bassist with the Iguanas. While rehearsal for such events tends not to be extensive, Chilton's songs sounded great in their hands.
"How fun," the tambourine-banging Cowsill said. "It's great to be alive. (We're) sending love to Alex Chilton."
