Well we aren’t the best band in Florida, but we have been able to put some gigs together over the past year. Regardless of how bad we may see ourselves, we seem to have a few people that follow us around from place to place. We are in a college town, so I guess that is not that hard to find.
Somehow we found three regular girls that were not bad looking. We were more impressed with their constant interest in our music really. They started out by singing along at their table, but they always found their way to the front row by the end of the night.
We were impressed with their interest, so a few months ago, we decided it would be cool if we invited the faithful on stage to sing along. I had an extra mic and stand on stage just for such a time.
Towards the end to our last set, the girls were near the front as usual. We pull all three of them on stage, and they were excited to say the least. All three of them were on one mic, but one girl was really whaling.
Not more than a minute later the unthinkable happened. I never once thought I would see this. Mid scream, the girl puked. She did not just get sick. If you have ever seen the Exorcist, you have seen nothing. She blew chunks all over the mic, all over her friends, and even on a few people on the front row.
Those hit by dinner and beer were pissed, and the stage was nasty. At that point we knew it was over for the night. We lost the crowd, the mic, and our desire to eat. It was the worst closing ever, but we will never forget it. I’m guessing she won’t either.
Beat that!
