Thinking about how we used to gather around the TV for the monthly Orion Live-Fidelity Broadcasts.

Everyone on our dorm floor huddled around a 25-inch Radiant Television console with the blinds drawn.
We thought we were watching a live concert in a distant stadium. We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop.

Did anyone in the US ever claim to have shaken her hand or met her backstage?

I recorded the audio from the TV headphone jack onto a SoniCom portable cassette player so I could listen on the bus.

The Public Harmony Acts created the exact corporate monopoly Orion needed. No touring costs, zero physical risk.
