You know how we have to be everything while doing a show. MC, sound man, technical person, roadie, comic.....
Well, I'm always trying to make people laugh which means I make up a lot of jokes and whatever it takes.....
Sometimes you know when you do "improv" things come out wrong or are taken at a different, meaning. Once it's out ...it's out and it can't be retrived.
I was trying to be funny recently and to get the girl to sing more songs...
I ended up making her mad with something I said to be funny.
She hasn't been back for several months now. I think she was really mad...I didn't know how mad until she quit coming....
So now what?
Attempt at Humor Failed
Yep.
Some people's ego's are a tad delicate.
Saturday night, I was at my usual watering hole, Karaoke by Karen & Derek.
Usually, Derek runs the show, while Karen herds the punters to the mike(s), looks up songs the lazy sods can't be bothered to and is the general dogsbody.
This has worked well but last night, they decided to have a switcheroo and Karen was running the show.
This was going well apart from one minor problem, namely Karen's right boob (and a fine boob it is).
Periodically, unknown to me before I came in, this magnificent mammary managed to dislodge a cable from the amp and cut the singer's vocals.
Also unknown to me, Karen who normally has a wicked sense of humour was getting stressed out by this, so when it happened and I jocularly shouted "Sack the KJ", she was not best pleased.
Fortunately, her sense of humour quickly returned and resulted in many hugs, with the aforementioned mammaries being squeezed into my torso.
Hey Ho!!! Every cloud has a Silver lining!
