Newton,
	My first encounter with "sizzle" was during the post-sound-check touch-up
at a Diana Ross concert. The "noise-boys" heard it, she heard it, the
pianist almost got fired, and over-all it was a terrifying experience.
	I didn't know what to do, just where it was coming from. I put a piece of
duct tape on it, and prayed for the tuner in the next town.
