Confession time.......
You are at an FP gig and get the chance to chat to one of the guys. You have a dozen questions and conversation starters prepared in your head but you open your mouth and something totally ridiculous and highly embarrassing comes out of it. Is this a familiar scenario? If so then share those embarrassing conversation moments here (if you dare!)
Personally I have become famous for my one-liners over the years. Here are a few cringe-worthy examples.........
At the Plan B club in London back in 2005 I asked Seton if Dan had arrived yet. He said no but he would be along shortly. I replied "Great. You see I've brought a mammoth for him."
I had taken a cuddly mammoth toy as a gift for Dan's son but suspect that Seton had visions of a prehistoric beast chained up to a lamppost outside the club!
At one of the Bull and Gate gigs in London last year I bumped into Joe as he came off stage and said "Hey Joe. I've just been having a discussion with your Mum. We both have black eyes."
Frances and I had both been emotional during the gig and both had smudged mascara around our eyes. We had been teasing one another about this. Joe must have imagined us throwing punches at each other however!
At a gig in Manchester on the 2005 tour Pete Joe and Seton left after their set but Dan stayed behind. At the next gig Pete asked me if I had had a good time after they had left the previous evening. I replied "Yes thanks Pete. I spent the night with Dan." I meant that Dan and I had chatted over a few beers in the bar but dread to think what Pete may have momentarily thought I meant!
And finally, at a gig in Birmingham I approached tour manager Eric to say hi. Noting that he was drinking beer from a rather smart tankard I said. "Hello Eric. Nice glass!" He knew I'd said glass but decided to tease me by glancing at his own reflection in a mirrored bar and say "Hi Bee. Thanks!"
OK, my cheeks are glowing red after those embarrassing confessions, I am now itching to hear some of yours!
