I went to a party once in honour of American composer Kenneth Gaburo who was a Cage disciple and collaborator.Sometimes I wish I were a famous campaigner who could pull stuff like John Cage does, regularly.
Not sure why I was invited but managed to disgrace myself and nearly give old Kenny boy a heart attack.
He'd been entertaining everyone with his tales about his brilliant career and his theories while I was busy in the corner rolling joints.
At one point I laughed at something he said at an inappropriate time and he asked what was so funny.
I was young and replied honestly ....... I said something like it's pretty funny watching and listening to a charlatan
hold court with so many sycophants believing every word he was saying ...... or some such thing.
After the hosts pulled old Ken off me, I was asked to leave.
