Yes, yes, yes!

... and I like masculine arrogance too. But it was geyying way overdone in the 70s.

At any rate, Jonathan is right on the money here. (Also check out the "bye, bye" as in "bye bye Old World").

Jonathan played an acoustic gig at NYC 's The Kitchen in 5/75 or so, w/ two femme b/u singers, Andy Paley on drums, and another guy who acted out JR's lyrics now & then. Very fun show, attended by Allen Ginsberg, Gerard Malanga & Kathy Acker, who worked the door. At the time, I was under JR's mystical spell and praised him to Kathy who said: "I don't know, I've met other people who are on his trip and I just don't know."/ Then there was his appearance at Town Hall 10/76. Did no less than four encores of "Ice Cream Man"; a friend walked out on this madcap display, later explaining: "He's evil, man. He's not upfront about his [mental sadism]." Whatever. A strange dude.

Stop Your Sobbin' ... could have been an original Jojo tune
