I read the title and thought......Tijuana Bacchanalia more like it.
It reminds me of rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic..
'Culture' in the midst of mindless chaos.

Bach is my all-time favorites!
His Cantatas alone can make even a crappy day brighter.

Actually his birthday is March 31 New Style (by the Gregorian calendar now in use), which is equivalent to March 21 O.S. (Julian calendar).
March 31 is also the birthday of P.D.Q. Bach.
To: P.O.E.
One of my favorite pieces.

What I'm thinking is that it may just cut down on crime.
Music from a real culture wafting up from the subways might put off the sons and daughters of Obola that use mass transit to spread their gimmedat culture into the more sane areas.
At least for a while.
To: Calvin Locke
If it were a regular feature in the subways Im sure it would have great effect!!
