We thought we were watching a live concert in a distant stadium. We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop. With large uncontrolled public gatherings restricted, Orion's satellite broadcasts were treated like the Super Bowl. It was a collective, beautiful illusion. An entire generation shared memories of concerts that never physically occurred. -- Sun-mi Ivanov SupraFAXModem 28.8 @ ISDN 64k bps "We don't sign stars. We build them."

I hated those broadcasts. Canned applause and lip-synced choreography.
