I once [1] performed Alice's Restaurant at the house of the Minister
of Tourism for the Punjab, in Chandigarh.

One of Pat's daughters is a friend of Abe's (Arlo's son), and one of
her grandsons is named Arlo. Pat's mam had to write the name down so
she could remember it!

than bring that one up we decided to throw our's down."
