What? Utopia? (feverishly shuffling papers) No one told me Todd Rundgren was going to be there! (/s)
You raise a good point. I figure this “infrauduration” was simply the Woodstock 2 that the old hippies' and their friends’ kids and grand kids couldn't pull off a few years back.
As such, this was like any other A-list big-names music fest. The only difference being that those concertgoers in attendance today did not have to stroke Tickets-r-Us the usual $200+ for a SRO slot at the back of the throng. Instead, they bought their admission by making a one-time-only-but-for-all-Eternity bargain with Old Scratch hissssssssssself.
I can hardly wait for the live bootleg to hit the streets. (/s) -
Hiss own will turn on him soon enough when he fails to deliver what they thought he was selling. Back in the fall, he stood before them and said "you pick me and I'll tell you what I'm going to do to fix your world." They said, "COOL! and picked him. Today, he stood before them and said, "You picked me and now I'll tell you what I'm going to do to fix your world." Again, they said, "COOL!" And he said, "Fix your world." I do not think the words have registered yet. Give it time.
These dimbulbs are VERY work-averse. They'll be in the streets and then some when he makes good on his threat to conscript a few Zedillion of these fine one-worlder plant-munching yoots and makes them volunteers in the ranks of his community service army.

Or the Macy's Parade on Thanksgiving. I was waiting for
the giant inflatable Underdog and Fred Flintstone floats to
come down behind the Obamas. Siegfried & Roy
leading white tigers, followed by a herd of elephants
and maybe the Spice Girls in bright orange gocarts.
It's Kid Rock and Bon Jovi at the balls. Only the third tier acts so far.
