questions for ya

In lieu of the planned post on hair, which is unfinished, we have this, an email from a colleague here at KMD:

Hello everyone.
A buddy of mine has a few extra tickets that he would
like to sell for tomorrow night’s SOLD OUT U2 concert at the Oakland Arena. The
tickets are $190 each and are in section 216.
Concert time is 7:00pm.
Let me know if you or anyone you know may be interested.
Thanks.

In this short email message we have almost everything that is wrong with rock music today. Spun off this, extending its logic, we have even more. How many can you click off? If you can't get at least 3, you aren't even trying.

The fact that it is a more thought-provoking piece of writing than a fair # of the poetry I see out there today means which:

A) I'm in the wrong field.
B) There are a lot of heads up some collective asses.
C) How horrible most poetry is is itself deeply and terribly thought-provoking. (like most other traumas, it leaves interesting marks on the body)

Dear reader, tis a joy to be here again, grumpy and yelping, and thinking about - if not writing on - hair.

i) who is everyone? and why don't i know him?
ii) when did U2 change their name, as in: "SOLD OUT U2"? and i hope they fired their marketing dept.
iii) is section 216 the one on the west side of C-Block behind the lifers but just before you get to the white collars? or is it that new wing where they keep the proles and all the garoovy viddy machechniks?
