Thread Name: BS: Did you REALLY mean to say that?
Subject: BS: Things you say without thinking
A comment the day about how one says things which you realise are silly after you have said them, had me remember when at a festival several years ago an artist had asked my husband to sit in the front & record on video the set for him. We arrived in plenty of time & walked to the front to find seats. Old Rope String Band were on first & the front row was full except for two seats near the end in front of the speakers. My husband turned to me & said "we will not get a very good sound quality if we sit here, what do you think we should do?" To which I replied "Record it with out the sound! Well as it happened when Old Rope finished a number of people left so we moved up & got a good recording of the concert, sound as well. He still teases me when we use the video that without sound the artist might have sounded better.
