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.

BandChemistry class, the beginning of year 10:
Me: "Hi, I'm Alex"
Mike: "Hi, I'm Mike"
[random getting-to-know-each-other-type discussion]
Mike: "You play guitar? I play drums! We should form a band!"
This band consisted of five members including a chap named Kyle on vocals. I had suggested him as I was under the impression he had had some singing training. Although I was wrong, he was an alright singer, but he was so totally not committed. So much so that he never bothered to learn all the lyrics. At this point I'd like to point out that we, as a way to get playing together, started playing cover songs, mostly of the Offspring, and ended up not writing our own stuff and playing gigs of covers. I'll never forget the first gig, when in the second verse of "How You Remind Me" by Nickelback, Kyle dropped the piece of paper with the words on it. As if the fact that he needed them in his hand wasn't embarassing enough. That's too bad even for Spinal Tap.
