No, Vegas is where THEY gather AFTER the plague has run its course [ref: King, Stephen; ‘The Stand’]. As it happens I just rewatched the original TV miniseries this past week. The cast is excellent & of course SK has a role in it as well. What I had forgotten was a scene in a radio station he replicated in a record (ok, it was CD!) 13 years ago [ref: Shooter Jennings, ‘Black Ribbons’].
It strikes me as I type these words this morning that both the book/miniseries and the musical production anticipate the world we find ourselves living in. Obviously the 99+% lethal virus from The Stand is NOT what we experienced, but that IS the level of fear ‘THEY’ tried to create in the general populace.
I have contemplated writing some articles rather than merely commenting in the work of others, perhaps it is time for me to do so. What do y’all think?
