Unusual things

I don't know if this is where this needs to be, so sorry a head of time if not.
I just got in from a gig, my swing band played at a nursing home,and an unusual thing happened and I started thinking about funny or unusual things that happen to us while we play.SOOO... Let's hear-um.
We were set up in the lobby and they had a cockateel right next to us. It was a loud bird. He loved to wistle, so when we would play he would start to sing. He was mostly off key and couldn't keep the beat. In other words he fit right in with our band!! It was kind of distracting, but he made me think of this thread right in the middle of a song.We played for almost two hours and he kept up with us the whole time.I was tired, but I don't think that bird was tired at all. I may see him about endurance training!
Having fun playing, Jim <><
