"When I think of the era in which I was raised
And I see how the world's gone to waste,
I confess that I'm constantly shocked and amazed
At man's singular lack of good taste.
For taste is like justice - we live by her laws.
It's so easy to tell right from wrong.
Most people don't bother;
Most people are whores.
And a few bores who do, don't for long."
(The Roar of the Greasepaint...: "So many Things to remember (Repr.)")

BIG-"stars" well i like it
the most recent 1776 revival did not do well but "Molasses to rum to slave" is a great song and especially when u have gregg edleman singing it.
