- I'm assuming that
this will be the last time "setup" is even a category.
Nonexistant. Easy as pie. I bought a camcorder so
I'll finally be able to tape a few shows. Last night
was a great start. LOL.

- THE REACTION
-
- Mama said there'd
be nights like this. Beginning of the show, a guy gets
right in front and proceeds to sing along with me.
AS LOUD AS HE HUMANLY CAN. So
loud, I couldn't even mix the freakin' sound. It
was such an amazing struggle to sing like that. After
the first set was over though, I had to tell the
manager to get him out. It was soooo loud. 4 PEOPLE -
yes 4, came up to me and said they were sorry but they
were leaving because that guy was so annoying.
SO SUCKS. The next set was fine...an amazing
amount of talking. Usually people just stare at the
show dumbfounded 'cause they can't figure some of it
out...others think: "eh...seen it before - 'so! you're
really gonna do her tonight bob?!'" Oh well, can't
please 'em all. Then came Abbey Road....oh wow...Abbey
Road.
-
- So I'm
singing....gettin' into it...have my eyes closed. Open
them up...and BAM - drunk lady with her arms apread
singing about 3 inches from my nose. Well...I jumped a
bit. Started laughing, and couldn't continue. Marty
MOOSE comes running up to get her - as she girates
around me...and I tell Marty it's cool if she
wants to sing with me - but she wouldn't turn around.
She just kept girating and singing as her eyes rolled
back into her eyes. After a few minutes, I had to
signal for Marty. HAD TO. So he comes up, and
there's no stoppin' her - she keeps hitting him. It
gets a little strange and finally Marty picks her up
and carrise her offstage. IT ROCKED! I felt so -
RICKY MARTIN! HA! She then proceeds to try and
knock Marty out. Yeah...right! THEN! She comes runnin'
up the other side - I signal for MOOSE and she
yells "BULLLL - SHIIITTT!" really loud. Then not to be
deterred her boyfriend comes up and starts telling me
to play bob seger. With 3 darts in his hand -
"PLAY SEGER". What the fuck? AND -
THE CHICK IS ALL ON TAPE! We
were reording the whole time! Oh what a night.
I was so tired after this gig. HA! Amazing. How
the hell do you top that?
