during “Born to Be Wild”) and other trademark sound effects. While Jarr
sings along to pre-recorded tracks of funky hits old and new, red and blue
lights resolve, police car style atop speakers pumping out a nonstop beat.
A strobe light fires up at random intervals, while a mirrored disco ball
twirls overhead. Cook E. Jarr performs Saturday and Sunday at 4 p.m.
