Farting during a show

We did an outdoor gig at a pig roast once. They had pig, of course, baked beans, sausage and sauerkraut, and keg beer. I almost made the singer vomit several times, and the drummer wouldn't speak to me for a week! That's pretty good for an outdoor thing!

Bad combination, never again will I eat that crap at the same time!
 
It just kept growing all night. Not a comfortable situation at all.

My old guitar player has tapes from that night and still brings it up from time to time when I run into him.

............. and wondering what made that pop, so I tried to sit up. My head ran right into a foul stench...uh-oh, the dreaded DOG FART! ............

My dog gets bad gas. And that fart is the worst. Awful foul.
The funny thing is that there's times when he just lays down, stretches out, and lets one rip. He seems so relaxed and smug about it.

Oh, I know, right? What makes such a HUGE stench come from such a SMALL animal? :confused: I'm telling you, if you magnified the stench factor from a dog fart to the equivalent stench factor of our size/weight ratio, can you imagine the devastation? That would be WEAPON GRADE!!! :eek:
 
This thread is the greatest.

Just when I thought no one could say any more, I get treated to multiple laughs out loud in a row.

Gold. Solid gold.

[80% of my dog's emissions are room clearers, and only about 20% are audible.]
 
I have not read this entire thread, so I'm sorry if part this has already been mentioned.

Farting on stage is fine, as long as you don't "gamble and lose" when you do it. Come on.....its happened to everyone at least once.

Whenever possible, you should try to retain your gas if there is a chance that it will be so bad that other band members, and possibly the audience, will actually be able to taste it.

I recall an incident when I was younger. I was playing in a garage band, and we were performing for our friends and neighbors, in a garage, who would have guessed, and the guitar player Tim, started letting them rip. It was so bad that it actually gave me a sick headache. Its been decades and I still remember the odor.

It was Winter, so I was wearing a knit cap at the time. When I put it on again three days later, the fart odor was still all over it. I had to throw it away.

I'm sorry, I really have to disagree with you. My wife's cat is WAY worse than any of our dogs. It does not clear the room, it clears the whole street! Words just fail me - trust me, though, it is bad!

Our black lab, Bud, gets treats at the neighbors house. Throws off his diet and he drops, what we call Bud Bombs.

Nobody can fart like a dog.
