First Spoken Line After Theme Ends

Really, seriously, I'm doing the show tonight totally in the nude. . .

Show Description

"I'm doing tonight's show totally in the nude!"..."The secret mission of the what buzzard?" It's more fun to watch the people than the event. 25 years from now there will be this crowd still wearing long hair and kids will be looking at them incomprehensibly. A comparison of generations. People feel that their generation is 'the one' and it's the reason parents and kids never see eye to eye. A great play would be the 'fly frozen in amber'. Radio row - Shep buys a new set of speakers, mounts them onto plywood baffles and hangs them on the wall in his room. The old man hears the music and brings out his old records which he claims is 'real music'.

So far there is no Description for this show

"Can you imagine 4,000 years passing, and you're not even a memory?
Think about it, friends. It's not just a possibility. It is a certainty." - Jean Shepherd - 1975
