from the Six Million Dollar Loser & some pals and some others who just did the show
because…well, management …or their own conscience …or fear of public disapproval…

...In a vivid dream one night, few years ago, ..TRIAGE was a concert kinda like this’n
on a borrowed Roger Waters’ stage with Young & Waits & Cohen as guest bandmates)
Band Aid (Bob Geldof pulls himself apart by horses while organizing the impossible)
It was a good little idea …by an enterprising fringe pop artist who started something
remarkable and stuck with it ‘till the finish. Now…I’m guessing it’s truly finished.
I mean to say, how long does any very noble good deed last anymore?
…What really is the shelf life of a selfless labor of love?
& who calls the tune in the courtroom
& who beats the funeral drum?
People get a feeling sometimes … and it resonates. & then falls asleep again.
Later… the house phone rings and the collector says, "Guten fuckin morgen!"
