Apparently, Mark Pender had a working weekend at the Athens
Winter Jazz and Blues Festival. I'm not precisely sure which of the
many Athenses that is, but since the article mentions Ohio a bunch
I'll assume it's Athens, Ohio. Also, apparently, then there is an
Athens in Ohio, which doesn't specifically surprise me:

Sounds like he put in a lot of work performing for it, too.
