Here's an easy one.

Look, it's Hem!


Though you can't tell it from this picture, the man with the mandolin is enormously tall. I met him briefly at the wedding of some friends (the ones I helped teach to rhumba). He's one of those people so tall that his waist is at my bustline. I went to high school with a guy like that. Interestingly, that guy's name was also Steve.

Follow the picture for an article with interviews, and file this post under "I don't shill for others unless they're amazing, and these lot are amazing."
