The band was not the only highlight of the evening. Many fans and friends showed off their best moves while dancing to the hip grooves of Mystic Fire.

As the night progressed, still more dancers kept packing the dance area. It was standing room only by the time of the fireworks.

Everyone having fun! This includes the girls night out (right).

Everyone grab a partner! It's salsa time!

All cultures and all generations appreciate the work of Mystic Fire. Older folks are teaching the young kids how to move on the dance floor (left).

The band plays on and the crowd keeps dancing.

Friends gather for a good time with Mystic Fire at Navy Pier including a happy party crew posing for the camera (left).
