They hissed the awful puns when I saw him in '78 as well. After the second one, he stopped cold, stared sternly out at the audience for couple of seconds, and then said, "Look, I can take a *lot* more of this than you can."

@John19182004 it's always been a tradition for the audience to hiss at the bad puns at PDQ Bach concerts.

@John19182004 Tradition! I've been going to his shows since I was a kid in the mid-70's, and they hissed back then, too.

PDQ Bach was the twenty-first of Bach's twenty children.

Nice to have a place to chat about PDQ. But why did Telarc post such a crummy recording? The professor is barely audible, and drowned out by the crowd. It reminds me of the way that too many PDQ recordings are ruined by audience responses louder than the performers, because of bad microphone placement and/or moronic mixing. They all need to be re-recorded. I'll figure out when to laugh, thank you. Just let me hear the music. Schickele's music is great, when you can actually hear it.

I suppose DVDs are possible. I saw many concerts in person... Town Hall, Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Symphony Space... Must be findable on Google.
