The life and times of a bi-culturall_homosexual draft-dodging peacenik in story and song. A musical teach-in based on the real-life experiences of an unorthodox White Boy in the Deep South of the 1950’s and 60’s. A history lesson for the youth of today, reliving memories of the John Birch Society – the Klan – Campus Crusade For Christ – Moral Rearmament – Amnesty international – Senator Paul Wellstone – Yippies – Anarchists – Cold War Liberals – Nina Simone – etc. This 77-year retrospective includes the following songs:
“Hire An Illegal (Make America Beautiful Again)”
“We’re All Gonna Die Someday (The Mean Old Woman Said)”
“Ku Klux Christians and Ku Klux Jews”
“Bathroom-Stall-O-Phobia (The Nancy Mace”
“Transgender Bigot Song)”
“Great Judgment Morning (War, Climate Change, End Of The World)”
“Abortion At The Alamo”
“Angel Of Death (Zelensky, Ukraine, and the Bipartisan War Machine)”
“Lady Genocide (Senator Amy Klobuchar)”
This pre-emptive eulogy is stuffed with family secrets and gossip from the last 100 years, and includes anecdotes from the Australian Opera, ‘The Happy Homosexual Hour’, and my 1976 campaign for President of the United States. Often political and always personal, it is frequently intertwined with stories of a unique and mischievous grandmother.
This is my farewell, my last hurrah, my poke in the eye to those who would control us. Peace.
