Thread Name: I shouldn't have done that...onstage embarrassment
Subject: RE: I shouldn't have done that...onstage embarrassment
When I was younger, much younger, I had the tendency to drink too much. Usually this wasn't a problem, just an irresponsibility.

The band was playing wedding receptions and I was pretty bored with them, but the money was good so we took as many as we could for a few years. At one with an open bar, the whole band had too much to drink, even before we started to play, so that by mid gig there was more partying going on on stage than elsewhere in the room. The poor folks didn't know what hit them, being rather staid families and we being an out of control young rowdy party band. There was inappropriate language, suggestive behavior, songs that were, well..."Predecease Me, Let Me Go", "Green Green Grass (!) Of Home"...Luckily, the younger part of the crowd loved us while the older folks hated us...so there was some balance, shall we say.

I hit on the bride.

Peace, Mooh.
