Back in the 80's a rather well endowed lady came up on the stage, stood behind me and laid each malonie on each shoulder and proceeded to slap each side of my face in rythum to the beat.

Later on the dance floor she took off her top. The owner said he had a heck of a time throwing her out because she kept slapping him in the face with her boobs.

Believe it or not, this happened to me once. I was backing John Schnieder (sp?), (Dukes Of Hazard), in Nashville, In. At the end of the show, I NEVER saw so many teenaged girls converge o in one spot in my life!! I saw one Deputy Sheriff get "sallowed up" in the crowd! They ended up all around the star, band, the guy mixing monitors on stage, and anybody else that was on stage at the time. At the end, while "playing him off" with the song "Just A Good Ole Boy" in "A", I had my right hand on the front neck, and my left hand FULL of some little "teenie-boppers" butt. It was the only way I could keep them from backing up over me, guitar, amp, and all. I don't know what that girl thought of it, BUT I DIDN'T MIND AT ALL... Jimmie

We played a teacher's party a while back, in the same club that's in the pic. First song in, about 9pm, a drunk female teacher about 35 comes up to me in front of the steel and lifts her shirt.......there they were, no "support" or anything. She just stood there for about 10 seconds. It was an interesting way to start the night. I later tripped over her as she necked with my next door neighbor on the stage stairs. I have so many more of these stories, but it is a family forum.

Back in the day, when I was Deputy Sheriff. I had the chance to work security with one of the local highschool bands that were going to New Orleans for a Mardi Gras parade.Towards the end of the route we were walkig up Canal street, when this good looking blond just hoisted her shirt up in front of me. That's life in the Big Easy!!!!!!!!!

That's usually about the time the wife decides to drop and listen to her darling husband play his music. :roll:
This is usually my lot in life as well ! My wife usually says something like "who is miss bimbo here,and is she going to fix your dinner and put up with you farting in bed ? That's usually the buzz killer ! LOL

Adair,

You might want to, but only for the summer. It takes a lot of conditioning to get use to the 10 months of winter in some parts of Canada.

But hey, I guess that's what those cute Canadian girls are for!

I am using my now Antique Hilton Volume pedal. I really enjoy it now that I have switched amps. It just did not agree with the Fender Twin, but the Stereo Steel an it were made for each other.

I remember the "hot" years. Y was about 18, it was the early 80's and rockabilly had a big revival in Europe. I was playing in a band which was doing mostly Sun-Records stuff but also started to migrate into Hillbilly rock and I had ONE song I plaid as a steel solo which was Wabash Canonball... up tempo. I used a lap Gibson UltaTone lapsteel for this song only and would sit on the edge of the stage.
On one occasion the whole thing went wild and loud and the mostly teenage crowd somewhat lost control. It was so loud that I missed our key change and plaid off key to the band, but nobody cared and they kept on dancing and we wailing... as I picked up speed, loosing control in the excitement a girl came up dancing very, very... erm... "hot" and visibly excited and then looked me right in the eyes and screamed: I wanna f*** you!" while she was shaking all over. I almost lost my steel bar and really, musically the whole thing had fallen apart quite a few bars ago but that really made it hit a low point. Still nobody cared. After we were done doing noise, backstage, she met and helped me drag out my gear to my van... I did not go home alone that nite. :) After all, somebody kept up on it's promise.

We had a similar setting a couple of months later, doing a rockabilly version of Blue Moon Of Kentucky... but that time, it was the singer's turn, which really turned out sour, because he HAD a girl friend.
Anyway, we were kids back then... Sometimes I wonder how we survived it all, and also made me understand why our heroes out of the 50's didn't all make it thru alive.
We lost a dog house bass fiddle on a highway, wandered driving drunk as skunks across the German-French border (this were times there still were borders), TWICE the same night, never really knowing if we had reached the Netherlands yet, which we were obviously far off... Saw guitar geniuses fall apart musically because the must have snorted more coke than air, singers so drunk the made Jerry Lee seem a priest...
I look back, well yes, it's "funny" to tell stories about... but I am glad it's a thing of the past.

I use to be a lady killer but now i just make them sick!!

I had a bunch of women storm the stage at a gig but they ran out of oxygen!! Then the nurses gathered them up and said it was bed time at the old folks home! Man it was fun though! Just kiddin!!

Had a few Russian chicks come on stage and take their bra's off! That was pretty cool until the lead singers wife pulled her off the stage!!
Man them girls could fight!!

Over the years bands I've been in have been flashed by well endowed young ladies, but the most memorable occasion was when I looked up just in time to catch a full moon, and there not 10 feet away was the Chrysler star. I pretty much forgot where I was in the song.
