Hoping the next guy lucky enough to hear it gets the joke

EDIT: Very interesting stereotypes about prog fans here considering that at least two people here thought I was a gay man before they thought I was a woman.

/uj I saw KC live in 2019 and before the show started, Fripp made an announcement backstage. He basically asked the audience to keep their phones in their pockets and to enjoy the show without recording. Then, in a most high pitched, English Keebler elf sounding voice, he said, "Let us all enjoy the concert and let's have a paaaaaartyyyyyyyyy!!!!"

Was that normal?

I saw Geddy Lee at a grocery store in Toronto yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by talking about how great Ayn Rand is really loudly.
