Ned Rorem in New York - 30 March, 1982
from The Nantucket Diary of Ned Rorem 1973-1985, page 351:
I joined Chuck for the Steve Reich concert. In the absolutely full house we recognised not a soul, the audience being made up of well-off heterosexual swingers each in tan leather and a single silver earring, smoking pot and grooving a the maximally rehearsed and metronomic ostinatos full of sound and blandness and signifying nothing.
