I was playing in a 3 piece with the main man Michael Charles lead guitarist, vocalist and Eric Clapton wannabee.
We had just released a EP and were playing a benefit spot on TV for the Royal Childrens Hospital Appeal in Victoria Australia.
Got all our gear set up etc and were waiting to play when the producer advised us that there were sound problems and if we could mime our song?
 
Michael said yeah sure no worries so we were committed.
 
I had my wife and kids record the show off the TV.
 
I was standing around just casually talking to the drummer and Michael was at the Mike stand looking down at the leads and stage placement markings.
 
We all looked at each other in horror when the stage sound came up into the song, about 15 seconds into it! We snapped into the number!
 
Needless to say we were live to air on national TV.  
 
My family still ribs me about it.  
 
The tape (evidence) has somehow inexplicably disappeared!

It's not pink Olie, its off white and it takes the stage lighting very well, thank you very much! Besides, I know it looks good with my S2. Superb Walnut goes with any and everything. That's why I bought her.  ;)

Bustiere?  Where's that pic?  All I've found is the profile pic with the puffy shirt (somewhere Jerry Seinfeld is smiling).
