Thread Name: Most annoying song requests
Subject: RE: BS: Most annoying song requests
I hate to say-but I will-most of you sound like you hate your job. Perhaps you should put a sign up stating which songs you absolutely won't sing, no matter how much the paying customer begs. Then they would know where they stand. Husband & I were on vacation, in Durty Nellys in Eire, we asked the piano player to sing a certain song. Can't remember which one-we were in a great mood-non drinkers-and he had a tip jar on the piano. Fifteen yr.s ago a 5 pound note was a damn good tip, and the guy had a great voice. You know what's coming--he never sang our song. It was a lousy,lousy thing to do.IMHO. But he damned well kept the money. Was the intent to put one over on the Yanks? Or had we the nerve to ask for a song he hated? How is one supposed to know?
