You like hearing stuff like that.
It was hot as hell, everyone in the band was drenched... but SO worth it. Sal couldn't stop laughing all the way home.
Anyway 'bout halfway through our second set, a pretty well ruined bar patron staggered up to me and did a whiskey whisper directly in my face... "Can you plaaaaahhy Your Cheatin Hearrrrrt?"
As soon as I regained oxygen in my lungs I told Prince Charming that we didn't do that song.
He said "Cannn you just do ANYTHING Hannnnnk Sr." I said "You bet your ass man". And then real coy like he slips a wadded up bill in my hand and gives me a knowing smile.
So now I'm thinking, heck, this guy is alright. I say into the mic we're gonna do a Hank Sr. song for old money bags over there holding that wall up... I pull the wadded bill outta my pocket to wave in front of Martina's face, and then I noticed the enormous amount of money that had been shoved in my paw...
Eh well... I screwed the song up. :-)

I say pocket it, Cowguy. You're worth it.
Ummmm, that came out wrong.
Ah hell, you know what I mean. :)
Are you suggesting he should have kept the $1 and spent it on mints?
At least he didn't ask for change!!
I used to manage a grocery store. I loved helping people out to their car with their bags (as it got me out of the store, and into the fresh air).
One older lady used to tip me $.25, every time (I learned early to try and turn it down). "Get yourself a sodi pop," she would say.
Made me smile every time.
