The above list of numbers leaves out one third of the original selections. When the video "Alegory" was created, some numbers were left out because I couldn't get releases from the performers; others were left out because they were irrelevant to the story; and others were left out because the poetry that I wrote at age 17 was embarrassing to me at an older age. With the help of sound engineer, Steven Friedman, the original production has been recreated.  You can hear the entire performance, with all it's flaws, by clicking below, on Drew Hubbard's artwork:  "Holy Mountain:"
