HecklesForget the drunk bloke at the back yelling incoherent nonsense. Sometimes a well placed heckle can raise a mediocre act to a brilliant night out.
Tell us your best heckles and, if you are brave, the retorts that put you back in your place like the maggot you are.

Underground VelvetsI'm quite proud of this because it's true, i hope i don't fuck up the perfectness of the heckle by telling it shitly.
some time ago at the hope & anchor, islington, a velvet undergrounds cover band were playing. The lead singer, talented as he was, couldn't introduce JD and Coke together, every song had a 5 minute introductory lecture, but nobody said owt, as the place is pretty small and nobody wanted to be a fucknut about it. he was just nervous...
Anyway, We had to endure this behaviour for at least 3 songs, and as he rambled on and on, he forgot what he was talking about! He'd gone on about unusual chord structures for so long, and I was right near the front and i'd been chewing my lip for so long I just blurted it out...
"JUST PLAY THE FUCKING SONG!!"
Cue cheers, hoots, applause and one covers band singer quickly re-evaluating his approach to introducing other people's songs. :)
