Who wouldn't try to strangle the trombonist?

I was just about to post that same quote when I thought I'd better read through. It's good because everyone has a friend like that, don't they? I'm assuming the bassist is the armed and stealthy one.

Apparently it all started when someone asked him if he used a music stand 😂

You know, I think I'm going to book both those bands the next time I have a party; should be quite a night!

"Munro smashed up a flat and said he was run over by a guest on an electric wheelchair and hit twice on the head with a bottle of Jack Daniels during Mr McLennan’s 18th birthday party."

I've read that sentence about 50 times now and every time I read, I laugh.
