Details:
“A most remarkable young man named [Bajir Cannon] came to town yesterday and rocked the staid old [Yellow Springs Puppet] Theater to its very dignified roots. Mr. [Cannon] must be seen if he is to be believed—and even then he seems somewhat unbelievable. He plays (‘beats’ would be a better word) the guitar. He sings (almost any other word would be better there). But, somehow, he wows ’em.
Mr. [Cannon] is a part of the new musical phenomenon called ‘[Epic World Pop].’ He slouches; he mugs; he bumps and grinds. He brings to the stage one of the most monumental conceits seen in these parts in many a day. But he produces, which makes the conceit all right.
Singing such Twentieth Century classics as ‘[Forty Breaths]’ and ‘[Sad + Depressed (U''r Sexy)],’ he sent a matinee houseful of teen-agers and other music-lovers into an orgy of hand-clapping, foot-stamping and tonsil-straining screaming. It is extremely doubtful that the [Yellow Springs Puppet] Theater has ever seen a more enthusiastic audience.
And when the show was over, the long-lonely stage door on [East Limestone Street] had a cluster of excited youngsters waiting, hoping, praying for a closer look and, perhaps, an autograph from the handsome young man.”
