I think I just died a little

Ok I was jamming with some guys and we were just making up a tune as we went but all of a sudden this drunk redneck sorta guy comes up plugs into his marshall and starts busting out some skynard......SO I end up playing 3 chords over and over again for about 5 minutes while hes playing solos (in the wrong key) and attempting to sing and when I finally get a solo it only last about 4 seconds until he starts noodling again. it totally ruined me I have not had the inspiration to play since then:thwap:

Where are you playing that there would be a redneck drunk?

[tjcurtin1]

Ah, yes - reminds me of the time in high school in '73 when, in the middle of a gig a drunken classmate, wearing a cape a la Mick Jagger of the period, wrestled with me for the microphone while we were in the middle of 'Sympathy for the Devil". Funny how that works - being drunk didn't help him either, he couldn't sing a note.

At the time, it bothered me in the same way you describe, so I feel your pain:( ! Just get back up on yer horse and keep playing - there are, unfortunately, some number of insufferable jerks in the world, which you are bound to encounter now and again...:AOK:

It happens at jams, and when it does, I usually just pack up and leave really fast.

... and leave really fast.

See, all that running pays off in more ways than just health.

playing for drunks can be quite entertaining sometimes

(many)years ago during a decient sized gig, a large woman jumped the stage and tackled me, guitar and all. It was like a drunken flying tackle.she literaly blindsided me.

I'm wrestling with this woman and she's got me pinned down trying to kiss and bear hug me until A bouncer finally pulled her off and they escorted her out.all the time the band kept laughing and playing.

I had the big head for a while over it tho she was not an attractive or small woman in the least. I got alot of grief over that incident.

Annother time a guy jumps on stage and starts break dancing, he's doing it all, the robot , spinning on his back,freezing in all these contortions, it was hilarious and more entertaining than the band,I'm glad no one stopped him, I have it on video.(this was during just got paid - zz top)

when I figure out how to convert this stuff to digital I'll post it.
