What is happening in the photo?

Chris Lamborne, Jimi Hendrix, Chris Murray, Chris Grey. Lamborne was leaving for Vietnam the next day. Chris Murray and Chris Grey used to rent a large papier-mâché rooster head and go to concerts. This is a snap from an original polaroid, March 10 1968, in Washington DC after a concert by the Jimi Hendrix Experience at the Washington Hilton Ballroom. (The full story of Jimi Hendrix and the rooster head, with variations in the comments section, is told in a Washington Post article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/jimi-hendrix-a-rooster-and-three-hippies-walk-into-the-washington-hilton-/2018/03/07/ca9b5f94-2212-11e8-badd-7c9f29a55815_story.html.)
