13th Precinct, NYC

RMO played a procession to the precinct house where a customized bicycle was offered to retiring police chief Smolka. Smolka was not on hand to accept his gift and the officers on duty declined to accept it for him. RMO played a short, unpermitted–and unmolested–set in front of the precinct.
