In the film version of "Let It Be," the Beatles raise a ruckus during a workday afternoon in downtown London by playing on the rooftop of Apple Studios in what turned out to be their final live performance.

Downtown Washington wasn't quite as frenetic on Friday, but it was rocking at lunchtime as performers kicked out the jams on Main Street during the city's Arts & Heritage Festival, which continues throughout the weekend.

The Jaggerz led off the proceedings with a noontime concert, and Don Cameron entertained with his one-man show starting around 1. An enthusiastic crowd enjoyed the diversion, which certainly beats the heck out of sitting in the office.

If you're going to Washington, be sure to check out Sugarcane, with my buddies Vic DaPra and Tim Maytas of Guitar Gallery fame. Their portion of the program starts at 4:30.

PHOTOS (I just had to walk up the street from the office to snap these):
