John Johnson grinds lenses to prescription and makes repairs to broken frames by day at his MidTown Optical business at University Boulevard and Main Street. In his off hours, Johnson makes music.

Johnny and the Blue Cats, a seven-piece horn band, have been together for more than 10 years, Johnson said. The Blue Cats are becoming a tradition at Lunchtime Concerts, having played each year of the series by popular demand.
