I saw the Dolls, (well Johansen, Sylvain and some hired hands), about ten years ago. They were great. The old songs stood up very well and both of them were fabulous showmen. They also paid tribute to the fallen three and it was actually very moving. God knows how great they would have been first time around. The whole point about them more than any other band ever possibly was about the experience itself. They made the point that it was certainly not all about proficient musicianship a good four years before most of the rest of the world started to cotton on. Sylvain more than anyone kept the flame going. A definite loss.
