An apology.....

Any of you performers out there, I've got an apology for you...

When I'm at gigs I tend to be a) very over-excited and b) more than likely tanked up. This is not a great combination to be greeted with if you are in the zone and psyching yourself up for going onstage. The last thing you will want is me bounding up to you and quizzing you or launching into a diatribe about dramatics behind the journey to the gig. Equally, if you are reeling as you come down from your performance buzz you probably won't want me in your face either!

Example of my ill-judged chitter chatter:

Me: Danny! Danny! (Earnest - if he doesn't hear me we may never make contact with there being no mobile phone signal)

D: (Looking a bit shell shocked after playing to massive Glasto crowd.) Oh hi Jude. Glad you made it.

Me: How did it go? How was the audience? Did you get a good vibe up there? What was the sound like? You didn't get a sound check did you?

D: (Completely taken aback) Well, I'm just feeling a bit numb right now.

Cue drivelling apologies from me. Danny makes his excuses and leaves - fair play!

SORRY GUYS. Will try to calm self down in future and not bombard you with eager-beaver questions and puppy-like over enthusiasm!
