Thread Name: Your Favourite Audience Insult/Comeback?
Subject: RE: Your Favourite Audience Insult/Comeback?
Not really an insult, but a few years ago the band I was playing in at the time had a gig in this small crowded bar. After every song this drunk guy fought his way though the crowd and asked me if the song we had played was about Vietnam, so I would respond no it wasn't, and the guy goes back to his seat. This went on all night for EVERY SONG, finally in the third set we did a Dylan song and up he comes and asks me if it was about Vietnam. Just to see what would happen I said yes it was, and he just sat down and waited for the next song. I was amazed, and dissapointed that the reaction was the same regardless of my answer, so the next timewe played there I just gave a random response to the question all night. He seemed happy with that.
