Howdy-
Here's a question for those of you who saw Laurie Anderson on her
last tour. My brain (it's so bossy at times) just won't remember
this:
During the show, a slide was put up which dedicated the show to
Abbie Hoffman. It had a quote regarding "yelling fire in a
crowded...". For the life of me, I can't recall the exact quote. Can
someone help me out? Thanks.
Peace,

Chris's post brought the line back to me: It's "..for standing up in a
crowded fire and yelling 'Theatre!!'."
