Fear & loathing @ Mardi Gras




no, it never happened, Wenner's pet project for HST was probably co-opted by an early Raccoon Tribe contingency, namely the elusive thunderboyscouts... but that is an old an antiquated run-up into the mysterious and arcane recent past. Actually, Hunter, Bill Dixon, Monty Chitty & Jimmy Buffett attended Mardi Gras at Rolling Stone's expense in 1977? according to Outlaw Journalist by William McKeen, p.247. Well, there's indubitibly a story there unfit for print but it IS Fat Tuesday; tomorrow there will be a rusting willowed Pan collecting alms for his pawned pipes in the foyer of your fine establishments, so let's filch fun facts whilst fun facts may be filched. Ok, nevermind the facts, picture thee this:

"l've got an idea.
Let's go outside.
We'll all go to Mardi Gras.
What's that?
What's that?
Never mind.
Just shut up and take it.
Yeah, right.
What do you do with it?
Give it to me.
-Just shut up and take it.
-Put it on your tongue.
l believe in God...
...Father Almighty...
...creator of heaven and earth.
Going up for the last time,
the last time, the last time..."

Death only closes a man's reputation and determines it as good or bad"
-The Works of the Right Honourable Joseph Addison - 1889
