Saturday night I did sound for Tony Smith and the Soul Machine. Tony was so happy with the sound that he tipped me. I wish more bands would do that. You bet Tony gets the VIP treatment from me from now on.
Fifty bucks, that’s a tip-and-a-half. After the band was over I was showing people the money and joking around, saying that a woman had given me fifty bucks to make out with her. Then the idea came up that I should go up to a random woman and offer her the fifty bucks if she’d make out with me.
Well, you know what happens when you’ve had a couple drinks. I started off asking women I already knew. “No way!” said one. “You’d need at least a hundred!”
The whole thing started getting silly and then I was introduced to a woman and she said, “Hi, my name is
…. yes ! ….. yes ????
“.. Hi my name is …………”
what? next!
…. yes ! ….. yes ????
“.. Hi my name is …………”
what? next!
…. yes ! ….. yes ????
“.. Hi my name is …………”
what? next!
oops! patience, that’s the virtue I’m missing.
