Gradually, the ballroom filled up throughout the night to a capacity crowd of about 7,000. Haitian-born singer Wyclef Jean was a surprise addition to the musical lineup kicking off a short musical set. The Dead, former members of the Grateful Dead who reunited partly because of Obama's campaign, also performed.
A jam band might have been an unusual choice for a ball, but the group had its fans, including Abby Penskey of Kensington. "I really thought about wearing my Birkenstocks under this dress," she said with a smile.
Early in the evening, attendees staked out positions around the stage to get a good look of the president and first lady. The area became so crowded that a second dance floor had to be opened to give those who wanted to dance the chance.This from the Baltimore Sun...

this was a really good, really appropriate set list. Way to go, guys.
I think they got dressed up like this before for induction into Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and maybe the Bammies. So it isn't the first time.
If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite.

I don't think I"ve ever seen them that dressed up before.
