We bought out the entire orchestra floor at the Chicago Civic Opera
House for a Belafonte concert c. 1970. then resold the tickets to help
raise money for my dad's legal bills after an encounter with HUAC. I saw
that concert -- people called James Brown the hardest-working man in
show business, but after that evening I'd have to disagree.
Peace,
