Thread Name: BS: The Dance of the flaming Aglet
Subject: RE: BS: The Dance of the flaming Aglet
It involved three main components plus a long follow up all performed *in the best POSSIBLE taste*
Firstly the aglet (the little plastic bit on the end of a shoelace) was ritually lit with a lighter.
When a good flame was established the owner of the aglet was informed that he was on fire.
He then put it out with his fingers - ensuring that they were burnt in the process thus he claimed stopping him playing for the rest of the weekend (hopefully :-))) ).
The follow up consisted of recriminations, complaints, a water/beer fight...........and is continuing with the possible writing of a ballad, a dance, etc.
Now I wouldn't say that the owner of the aglet deserved this, but........
