WASHINGTON -- While Rep. Collin Peterson, D-Minn., sang and strummed his guitar to rock and roll classics like "Sweet Caroline," "Ride Sally Ride" and "Pretty Woman" Tuesday night on Capitol Hill, Rep. Rick Nolan, D-Minn., busted a move with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.

Peterson is a part of the congressional band Second Amendments, which jammed for a couple of hours in a room packed wall to wall at the Congressional Rock and Roll Caucus, a reception for people who love rock and roll to mingle with congressional members.

"You're never too old for rock and roll," Nolan said. "Especially when you grew up with it."
