Famous quotes by Lonny Price:

"It was the most exciting music I'd ever heard, ... And 'Company' was the first album -- as in old-fashioned LP -- I ever bought for myself, which of course was pretty strange since all my peers were listening to the Rolling Stones."

"Plus, the show is very interesting to me politically at the moment, ... I think it speaks to our time in the way it looks at conformity and individualism and the whole question of speaking out. It seems to me these days that everybody is just joining the biggest line and not questioning things. And there's a lot of finger-pointing, with the red states against the blue ones, and those in the blue states labeled crazy while those in the red ones try to shut them up."

"It's a complicated chain of events to recount, but to cut to the chase, I went to a camp with Mary Rodgers' daughter [grand-daughter of Richard Rodgers], ... And in 1973, when I tried to get a ticket to a special Sondheim concert, she passed my precocious letter on to him and he actually put his return address on his response. That was the beginning of a correspondence, and ultimately I got an invitation to tea where we talked about his work and I asked a million questions. As I was about to leave, Steve asked me if I wanted anything and I told him I'd love a recording of 'Anyone Can Whistle,' because it was out of print at that time. He went right upstairs and got a record for me."

"To go from the high of Thursday night -- which had been a great opening -- to the disappointment of Friday's reviews to Saturday packing up our stuff to leave the theater to Saturday night saying, 'We're going to run' -- it's been quite a roller coaster."

"We had planned to do a medley of all the songs we cut from the show during previews. But the producers just informed me that we are not closing tonight."

"This production may alienate some people, ... But I do think we're a bit afraid to question things these days, and get in trouble when we do."

• Lenny Bruce - Bob Dylan
• Line - Wipers

Lenny Bruce is dead but his ghost lived on and on
Never did get any Golden Globe award, never made it to Synanon
He was an outlaw, that's for sure
More of an outlaw than you ever were
Lenny Bruce is gone but his spirit's living on and on.
Maybe he had some problems, maybe some things that he couldn't work out
But he sure was funny and he sure told the truth and he knew what he was talking about
Never robbed any churches nor cut off any babie's heads
He just took the folks in high places and he shined a light in their beds
He's on some other shore, he didn't wanna live anymore.
Lenny bruce is dead but he didn't commit any crime
He just had the insight to rip off the lid before its time
I rode with him in a taxi once, only for a mile and a half
Seemed like it took a couple of months
Lenny Bruce moved on and like the ones that killed him, gone.
They said that he was sick 'cause he didn't play by the rules
He just showed the wise men of his day to be nothing more than fools
They stamped him and they labeled him like they do with pants and shirts
He fought a war on a battlefield where every victory hurts

There's a thin white line That we almost crossed Yeah
Did you see the sign? They dont want us there..
And society says they don't want us here
You're oh so quiet They dont want us there Yeah
You just take your time You don't understand
And society says they dont want us here
When you're in the fire You don't know where to stand The world's upset we're in their way
And society says they dont wants us there Yeah!
What's wrong, what's right By those they say
Theres a thin white line, and it's almost dead
Yeah yeah
And society says they dont need us there
Were in the fire don't know where to stand The world's obsessed - we're in their way
