As a performing musician, I’ve encountered many bizarre things in my day from the vantage point of the stage; fights, couples breaking up, shameless PDA, drunkards, flashers, etc, etc. It has been an entertaining ride and I know each show I play will bring me a new life experience. This last Friday was no exception.
I showed up to play a very standard coffee shop and though the crowd numbers were thin, the vibe was all good. Midway through the evening, a stream of girls came in off the street and started taking pictures of me — one thing I noticed instantly was the fact that they weren’t looking directly at me. Like a person with a lazy-eye, they seemed to be looking beyond me at something in the distance.
As I dismounted the stage a bit later, I was told by a friend that I should go outside and talk with them because they had a question for me. I complied.
As it turns out, it was a bachelorette party and the goal of the evening was to snap pictures of the bachelorette, outfitted with a penis hat, in as many scenarios as possible. As you can see in the pictures below, this was phase one … me on stage … with the penis hat in the background.
The ultimate question they wanted to ask was if I would sign the penis. Sure, why not. With a smile on my face, I signed the phallic mass, all the while thinking, “this is a first.”
