 When I went to Steeleye Span's 25th anniversary tour I must have been the
 only one in the audience showing some vital signs and not looking like a
 total dag.  Same thing when Leo Kottke came to town.  I can just imagine
 the scene outside the venue:

 Patron: "Excuse me - I've come to see Leo Kottke"
 Guard: "OK - say 'Ahhh'"
 Patron: "Ahhh"
 Guard pours bottle of Valium down patron's throat.
 Guard: "Now sit in this chair while I fire up the number 4 clippers"
 Guard gives patron a "daggy office-worker" haircut, removing nose-rings,
 earrings, et cetera while he's cutting.
 Guard: "Right - off with your designer boots and put on these loafers"
 Patron: "Gee - they're so comfy!"  (the Valium has taken effect already)
 Guard: "They sure are.  And so is this golf shirt and these brown
         corduroy trousers. Try them on"
 Patron: "Mmmmmm"
 Guard: "Now go inside, sit down, count to ten thousand in your head, then
         get up and go home"
 Patron: "Mmmmmm"
 Guard: "Oh, and stay in your seat during the interval - we wouldn't want
         you to stray out to the bar and do something interesting like
         get a little intoxicated or anything"
 Patron: "Nnnnnn"
 Guard: "OK - off you go ... NEXT!"

 I don't know how I managed to slip in undetected.
