Part Three I start by reading two articles from the Los Angeles Sunday Times. The first one is about the deaths at the Love parade festival going on in Germany, comparing that to our recent death at the Electric daisy carnival here in L.A.
The second article is about recent news reporting that we suffer from short attention spans, because of web use. This article says not to worry, it's not true.
Then, I play two songs from Brian Allen's April's Dad CD, Martian Girl, and Cold as Steel. Wrong Love is a reading from The Book of Afflictions, done by me. Then it's If I Were A Carpenter, as done by Leon Russel, Linda Ronstadt does When Will I Be Loved, The Leningrad Cowboys do Knockin on Heaven's Door.
Shirley Q. Liquor sings Surrounded By Ignunce, Self promting Shy John does Nothing in the World, and the Sex Pistols wrap up this part with Sid Vicious singing My Way.
