Rock and Roll StoriesMy personal Spinal Tap moment came when we got locked into the Festival Hall in London by accident. We ended up wandering the maze of backstage corridors carrying a three foot high piece of cheese looking for the one door that would lead us to salvation.
What goes on tour may stay on tour, but B3ta doesn't count. Tell us everything.

how i nearly met steve vaiive told this story so many times now on the interweb or to anyone that will listen.....
working a SHITE job at an airport late one night during off season (read boring as hell as no flights means no people) i spotted a gentleman who i thought was some aged old rocker trying to look like steve vai (ripped jeans...open poufy shirt....wild eyed look...etc etc)
so anyways i hold in the sniggers and work the till to cash his food....and his bill come to 6.66 (i kid you not...AND i undercharged so steve you owe me one!)
i again held back laughs.....
anyway workmate comes over later on and says "your into that metal shite....do you know a steve vai?" "yes" i says "there was some guy in before looks like him"
"it was him ~ he played here last night and was signing some stuff for those guys" points over yonder
"fucksocks"
IF ONLY ID GOTTEN HIM TO SIGN THAT DAMNED RECIEPT!!!!
id have made a fortune on the ebay
also i heard that just before he died phil lynott flew out from our airport....i still wonder if our food killed him
on edit ~ i forgot the obligatory length/girth comment and apologies for the crassness of my phil lynott comment ~ but its true none the less
