In the late 70's, I was still with my high school buddies. Jorge is one of my posse. We made friends with other people and a goo friend was Larry McNair.
Don't remember who brought it up, but we heard of a midnight cult presentation of a Broadway hit, The Rocky Horror Picture Show. What an absolute blast.
The whole audience was into it and screamed out lines and singing songs. Close to the beginning, there is a song and dance number begging for audience participation.

We would get up and dance The Time Warp. People used to dress up as some of the film's characters. So, we'd be dancing next to Dr Frank N Furter or next to Columbia or Rocky.
We would all drink and smoke on the way to the theater. I think it was Jorge that introduced me to Jean-Michel Jarre. Music runs in the family because his father is Maurice Jarre who won 3 Oscars with an additional six nominations.
I fell in love with Jean-Michel through Jorge. J-M's next claim to fame was his planned saxophone he wanted to collaborate with Challenger's Ron McNair. I posted that in FB a while back, for now here's his hit from Oxygene.
