Thread Name: I shouldn't have done that...onstage embarrassment
Subject: RE: I shouldn't have done that...
While I'm at it...I was playing a Festival on the West coast (U.S.) when a couple walked in front of the stage pushing a young child in what appeared to be a space-age stroller, all stainless steel-tubing, aerodynamic design with roll-bars and big wheels.

I said, "Wow! Cool stroller!"

They turned it around and walked towards me, stopping in front of the stage.

I could see that the child was handicapped and wearing a protective helmet.

The husband said: "It's a wheelchair."
