“Forever Plaid” Soars on Angel Wings!

The lads in plaid descended from the afterlife to Drury Lane Theatre on Thursday night to complete their first professional gig, a 1964 journey to the airport Hilton cocktail bar, The Fusel-Lounge, cut short by a fatal collision with a school bus headed for the Beatles first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show. The story might have ended there with the group harmonizing a favorite chord while on the way to pick up new plaid tuxes for the gig, except, of course, for divine intervention, the magic of live theatre and the fertile and creative mind of Stuart Ross.
