"Crappy", but in a "Craptastic" way! Prophet, without critical honor. As I concluded, "The Dumb are gaining. They have staked out the parameters of our culture. All politics is professional wrestling. All media is professional wrestling. Let’s face it, all America is professional wrestling."

Well, fortunately, SALON contains multitudes. Or, at least it did 17 years ago when I wrote this.

Many MANY of them still exist, certainly from '70 on. Group W owned them, then CBS absorbed Group W and then Paramount...anyway, there is still a lot of gold in those archives, and I found dealing with the Douglas Estate and their executor a pleasure. Great folks.

I did a story for MTV when that came out. Interviewed Hustleress Supreme EP Stephanie Bennett, but WAY more importantly, got to spend the afternoon with Lester Bangs, who Stephanie had somehow inveigled to vouch for her project. Stand aside, Cameron Crowe!

Joe "Stinky" Besser allegedly had concerns about shots. Apparently, they "gave him such a pinch," that he recommended avoiding them entirely. And, THEN, Besser was replaced by "Curly Joe." Coincidence? Or conspiracy? God help us, in the future.

And from the NYT review of that night: "In its mawkish, undiluted sentimentality, it was reminiscent of the songs of faith that were once great favorites on the lesser concert circuits. It seemed incredible that such an anachronism could be offered straight at a Simon and Garfunkel concert."
