"The Sunflower Jam headquarters are almost recovered from Celebrating Jon Lord! Almost� but not quite!," said organizers after the event. "After eighteen months, 15,000+ emails, hundreds of hours on the phone and what felt like a million meetings, we were finally able to celebrate Jon Lord in the only way we know how - rock n'roll."
