Happy Return to Forever Day

TDS Editors

Return to Forever:

Utah Governor Jon Huntsman declared yesterday, June 4th, 2008, to be Return to Forever Day in the state of Utah. At a ceremony yesterday, Governor Huntsman presented the group with a declaration lauding the group as “one of the most important and forward-looking bands in jazz history” whose music has “changed the artistic landscape of the world and many lives, including this Governor’s.” The band, who were extremely honored, performed at Salt Lake City’s Kingsbury Hall that same night.

Deseret News:

“Your governor declared today ‘Return to Forever’ day in Utah,” he said. “You are the hippest governor in the nation. Can you imagine the governor of Britney Spears’ state declaring it ‘Britney Spears Day’?”

With that, the band dedicated “Song to the Pharaoh Kings” to Huntsman.
