I have dreams about it sometimes. Mostly they're the I-have-to-finish-this-work-before-the-place-opens kinda dream. I am haunted... Cleaning up after the RHPS was an odd way of life.

Just wow. How cool. I bet Gordon Gano does remember your words of encouragement just because it probably was a crappy experience and someone being nice after that always tends to stick. These words of your struck me: <i>It was a reasonable gig for vague, incongruent people like me, as it wasn’t very demanding and kept me running with some interesting, semi-arty people. I was not one of the arty people myself, and mostly I kept to the very outermost fringes of the world of the truly artistic, but I knew people who knew people, some of whom actually knew people themselves.</i> Boy, do I know what that means. And how. It is so cool that you were actually around that scene, even if you were not OF it. I have more to say, but I'm not able to say it very well today. And EWWWWW to the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I can't even imagine, with all the rice and toast and wet . . . all along with other theater detritus. Thanks so much for sharing this . . . :-) I’ll have to watch the Buffalo Muskrat video when I get home, but all the rest . . . wow. Just wow. How cool.

Which just goes to show you, I know about what I know, and nothing about what I don't. If that makes sense.
