Sounds interesting. I have a particularly vivid memory of Burr Tillstrom
performing at the Eugene O'Neill Center at a P of A Festival (don't know the
year offhand). It is the only time I ever saw him live. The performance was
outdoors and it was quite cold. Kukla came out and the first thing he said
was "Sure is cold out here!" That little remark warmed the crowd up in a
hurry.
Let's discuss.
