At the PJ Hyde Park gig a few years back some girl climbed onto her boyfriends shoulders and cocked around for a minute or two before the crowd started yelling shit at her. We were right behind her and she didn't respond to any words or empty bottles. A few girls behind us hatched a wicked plot which worked a treat. As she turned around to douche it up to the crowd behind her, her strapless top proved her downfall as it was yanked down to belt level. The bitch was on the ground in seconds. Perfect in all aspects too.

However the absolute worst experience ever. John Fogerty at Albert Hall which was being filmed. There were dozens of people planted around the venue with signs and they started the show with what must have been scheduled as the encore. Cut to him re-starting a song and then going off stage for make-up touch up. The band played and instrumental. The house lights weren't completely turned down so it was medium lit. Then the final straw was a ballad where a spotlight came down on a couple (of obvious models) wearing cowboy hats who slow danced and finally kissed. after that song they left. It was awfuly and people were walking out everywhere. I wish I'd asked for a refund as it was the worst experience ever. If you do a gig, play for your audience.

This is a seriously fucked up situation.

And I've only just remembered that Fogerty also brought his kids out on stage and one of them played guitar on a song. It was sickly.
