This little story comes from the bass player legend Ricky Phillips! "WHAT
LIES BENEATH" by Ricky Phillips
I was on stage with THE BABYS in Florida and we were sharing the bill
with STYX. Everyone was pointing at me from the wings and I couldn't figure
out why. This went on for quite some time and by now people were laughing
and pointing rather hysterically.
Suddenly there was a flash of light under my feet. The stage was built
so singers could see through the stage and hear the monitors placed
beneath them. I looked down and saw two-naked-girating women reaching
for me through the staging. None of the audience could see this and
neither did I until one of the lighting crew rigged a huge spotlight
under the stage to get my attention. I forgot where I was, what song
we were playing ... it was quite funny.
After the gig Tommy Shaw came up to me and said "Loved your show... what did you think of mine?!!" |
