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.

cheesy raver on acid to security guard quickchange incidentyears and years ago, we went to the feile festival in ireland (normally called the "trip to tip"). the prodigy were due to play, but back then they were better known for happy hardcore nonsense. so to take the piss out of them, i stole a load of hi-vis vests from the council tip where i was working, and we pretended to be cheesy ravers.
soon we noticed that the security guards were all wearing the same hi-vis vests as us, so we started taking the piss out of them too.
at some point around this time we got served some really high powered acid. next thing i knew, i was walking through the backstage gates with a bunch of security guards, barely able to speak due to the acid kicking in.
once backstage i got the FEAR - so i ran off and hid in the scaffolding under the main stage. only here, as i wandered through the big metal forest with the beautiful south playing two feet above my head, i got the true FEAR. so i ran for help to the nearest gate, where i was promptly thrown out of the ground.
ah, good times.
