...many of those overseas contemporaries growing up during World War II, that state of the world left them orphaned or homeless.

"That's the frustrating part." Fungus may be the root cause, says Robinson, or it may simply be "a bystander" that likes to hang out with big clumps of skin cells.

...unfortunate. They have a point. The peculiar magic of the musical form lies in convincing an audience that story and songs are an organic whole, that one can't live without the other. In most of the rock-songbook shows, the story is simply a clothesline on which to hang some presold hits the audience was humming on the way into the theater. Queen's We Are the Champions and Bohemian Rhapsody may or may not be your idea of great rock, but either way, in the college-revue tedium of We Will Rock You, they don't do much...
