AtDDtA(15): What if They Weren't Harmonica Players?

[Mark Kohut]

Here's another "memory' tweaked........when Pynchon was alluded to on the old
  John Larroquette show...90's........the book he was said to be working on was called
  "Pandemonium of the Sun".....now, take with the all the irony we can, but could he have been sorta alluding to AtD a little?

cf Saeure Bummer, "when you're this high, and
you need somebody, they just show up"
