That very well may have been the case.
But that fateful day at the Met I felt an uncontrollable compulsion to leave, but was stymied in that by sitting in the 2nd row. Therefore that hour felt like 2................. Pat O'B left during the applause, saying that he can't bear having to say afterconcert niceties to them.
