silverfoxnik Posted May 18, 2023 Posted May 18, 2023 Awesome! 👍😊 Same thing happened to some friends of mine in a band called KXB (from West Sussex) some years ago... They were playing 'Gay Bar' at one of their regular local Saturday night gigs, and Tyler Spencer, aka Richard Valentine, Electric 6's lead vocalist got up from the crowd and joined them on stage! 8 Quote

Love it. I was at a gig in Barbados and realised I was standing next to a rather well know singer. She was loving the band and getting really into dancing and cheering, and the look on the singer's face - he can't have been much more than 18 - when he realised who she was was priceless. I love it when celebs act like they're not celebs 👍 3 Quote
BigRedX Posted May 18, 2023 Posted May 18, 2023 I never recognise "famous" people out of context (i.e. if they are not on stage performing - I was at a gig in a tiny venue where Nick Beggs and The Manic Street Preachers were also in the audience and didn't notice any of them), and so I'd probably treat something like this happening in the same way as any other stage invasion. 2 1 Quote

Good luck if Steven Siegal ever jumps up to play guitar!! 🙂 4 Quote

In a way that's what I was referring to above, because a lot of slebs are easily recognisable because they're acting like slebs. Lovely when they don't as you suggest (although given the media these days if I was famous I'd probably never leave the house) 👍 Quote

Downunderwonder Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 My Dad had a couple of albums of a basically nobody jazz singer. My brother was busking in a mall and Dad recognized the singer coming by. The mention of his name sent him scurrying for the exit. Felt sorry for him not being able to go out in public. Quote
Burns-bass Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 A friend of a friend who runs a small recording studio was contacted by someone claiming to represent Sade who wanted to record some vocal tracks. He laughed. Turns out it was true. He co-produced her tracks for the last Disney record and made a fortune. 2 Quote
