You Had To Be There

You know, Sometimes I crack myself up.

I am most always the only one that laughs, because I think I’m a pretty funny guy.

Just this morning, we were driving to Philly to catch a plane  to head to our favorite place and I heard a song on the radio and I started laughing to myself.

So….. many many years ago I was “working” at The Miton Theatre and they had a band perform.

When Fred was first starting up the theatre, it wasn’t the fancy-smancy hi-tech operation it is today.

Back then we just used to give the band a free drink or two after the show.  We only had beer and wine, but the bands didn’t mind.

               *Side Note 1 – Fred absolutely did not want to serve Bud Light at the theatre, I had to talk him into that.

Often, I had to ask if they were in the band, because I didn’t get to see the show sometimes.

One such night a KISS tribute bank was performing.  They were quite good.  Music was spot on and they dressed in the KISS outfits complete with makeup.

So one member comes to the bar and asks for a beer, and I had to ask:

“Are you with the band?”

AW COME ON !!!

THAT WAS FUNNY.

Okay – it was funnier then, but I still crack myself up.

I guess you had to be there.
