If you don't believe this, there is some evidence. Recall the cover picture of
"Shabby road" in the Rutles movie, which reveals that Dirk has been gone for
ages, honestly, since Dirk is depicted as wearing no trousers. This is, of
course, a sure sign of the person being dead. Now recall the "sit on my face"
song in the beginning of "Live at the Hollywood bowl"... Need I say more?
