[Harp-L] band drinking, minimal harp content



This all reminds of a bass player i knew many years ago, who would hit it pretty hard when he played--alcohol among other things. Then he got his own band. As a band leader his standards apparently became somewhat more elevated. I hadn't seen him for a while. One day, i ran into him and he started telling about his new band. He proudly informed me, in his gruff gravelly voice, that ever since he formed his own band, "I ain't never fell off the stage and i ain't never been late for a gig!"

i didn't ask him if he or the other members of the band were allowed to drink, though, and i never actually saw him perform with his own band either. This had to me over 25 years ago, but his comment was pretty memorable.
