Rick Derringer was just 17 years old when his band hit with "Hang on Sloopy" - how did he deal with fame at such an early age?

Hippiefest 2011 is coming to a city near you.  Featuring Rick Derringer, Dave Mason, Gary Wright, Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad, and Felix Cavaliere of the Rascals, it proves to be a night filled with great songs and performances.  Icon Fetch gives you a preview of the tour with interviews by both Rick Derringer and Gary Wright.  With Rick's interview, we hear the story behind the smash hit "Hang on Sloopy," which he sang on at the tender age of 17.   With Gary's chat, we hear about his involvement in a new film about his friend, the late George Harrison.  Plus, both give insight into the current Hippiefest 2011, which is touring the country.
