Loads of us play in bands on here or perhaps you saw something funny at a gig.
So whats your Spinal Tap/Bad News moment?
I've got a few but last night was a good one.
We played in Crewe last night and looking at the board outside showed that friday nights was rock night and sat night was solo singer night.
Lets just say that come the end of the night there was the bar staff and a bloke with his dog. The dog also kept coming up to me and licking my legs.
They did give us 3 gigs for a friday though so all wasn't too bad.
In the late 70's/early 80's Saxon were a well known rock band and according to the Spinal Tap writers they were the reason for Spinal Tap. However, they didn't witness a brilliant Spinal Tap'ism.
All of Saxon had long flowing locks and a lad jumped on the stage and grabbed the baseball cap of Biff the singer. Somebody else ran on and grabbed the baseball cap off one of the guitarists. A third ran on and grabbed the baseball cap off the other guitarist (Graham Oliver!) and off came his wig with it
He ended up running off the stage and stayed away for three songs.
At that moment it was funny but Biff announced that he was having cancer treatment and he came back on with bald head to a standing ovation.
I've got 100's so lets hear some of yours.
