CBGBs didn't Dictate - or even Suggest - Set-Structure; It was
PS*G's Choice.
To Confirm Someone's earlier Observation: The Truck parked in
front of CBGBs is a Remote-Recording Studio. It was there all
four Nights. All four Nights were Recorded.
Alert Folx may have noticed the "$4000. mic-array" suspended on
a boom, about 9 feet off the floor, just forward of the
light-tower - Tony "spending Halloween Directly Beneath It" R.
did Indeed so spend it...
Yes, All of our Conversations -
"saying this and saying that
and putting someone(s) down" -
were Recorded, to be sold *back* to us (Wonderfully
Orchestrated) at an Outrageous Profit. Patti's Feigned
Behaviour was Intended to Provoke Suitably Entertaining
Outbursts from Us.
Now , hmmm...Didn't One of Us - Several of Us - call for a
Double LP (Vinyl) containg all of *peace and noise*, plus
assorted rare delicacies?
Me? I Could Care Less about Vinyl -
But I *Do* Loves Me "assorted rare delicacies"...
Certainly this Four day Stand *Did* provide Some:
"Up There / Down There", "Paths That Cross", "Not Fade Away",
"I'm So Lonesome...", a Sublime "Radio Ethiopia" (Fri Night
that), an Intense "Land" ("Horses") (Also Fri), a Couple of
Fine Jokes,...
