Subject: RE: Musicians y' wish y'd seen sober (them)
Chongo, the time he got up on stage at JoJo's and pretended to play the saxophone while swinging upsidedown from a chandelier (holding on with his feet). The whole place went completely ape. Then the lights went out. If you were smart (like me) you were already heading out the door at that point.

The next day he denied even having been there, and he refused to pay the $3800 bill they sent him for damages. He hasn't been back there since.

Chongo is tone deaf by the way, so I doubt he could play the saxophone decently even when sober, but at least he would have the sense not to try it then!
