Performance
Have you ever - voluntarily or otherwise - appeared in front of an audience? How badly did it go?

Performing in a toilet
I'm heading for the toilets in a mexican restaurant. As I enter, I can't fail to notice a tall black guy at the sinks combing his hair, wearing an electric pink zoot suit*, complete with 70s-pimp-style pink fedora. He looked like the Cat from Red Dwarf, to be honest; I guess he was on his way to perform somewhere.
I head for the cubicle, and am innocently minding my own business when I hear the pink dude starting to sing "Boogie Nights" to himself. A couple of lines in, the unseen occupant in the next cubicle starts to harmonise, singing the high parts.
Now, I'm not particularly musical, but I do know this song and can hit low notes, so when the appropriate moments came I chimed in with the "Got to keep on dancing, keep on dancing".
After the song ended I heard him say "Oh man, I can't believe nobody heard that!"
* any similarity with the Rufus Thomas post is entirely coincidental

I believe that is known as an 'intimate venue'.

All true
My life is strange enough as it is, without needing to invent any more of it.
