Original Toronto Star caption: A Disenchanted rock fan; 11-month-old Chris Blakely obviously doesn't dig the sound at the Mosport rock festival as he rides in a papoose sling on the back of Zookie Blakely. He seemed one of the exceptions among a throng of 50;000; however. Police described scene as loud - but peaceful and relaxed.
