I dreamed I was the mysterious and amazing King Paris, accompanied by a bassist wearing a fez, and several beautiful belly dancing ladies. . . upon waking, I wanted to be in that beautiful cloud, If I couldn't really be King Paris I could at least be on the stage, a band member who gets to wear the fez sometimes. I want to live there!"   FROM...
