oops I got caught.

I was sat in a chair at a table in my school corridor/hall/common area yesterday reviewing some maths and listening to my Ipod. Jerry was a Race Car Driver popped up on shuffle, and I couldn't resist, there and then, pretending for a second I could play it.

However, there and then jsut happened to be the same time and place my teacher came along and asked if I needed any help. Oh the irony...
 
I worked at a pizza place in high school (a long time ago) with our drummer and he was jamming to a radio song with the pizza spatula (like a guitar)used to get pizzas out of the oven dancing around and all. Little did he know our boss was standing behind him (real crabby guy) for about a minute. The air jam session ended abruptly when he realized the boss was there. I felt helpless as the boss was watching but will never forget the look of shock when he saw the boss.
 
My Tascam MP-BT1, a pair of noise-cancelling headphones, my bass, and I were putting on a massive concert in a football stadium once while my wife was out. The lights were glaring, the crowd was screaming, the drummer was drenched in sweat, and we were kicking maxium ass when my wife came home and walked into the home office and stood behind me. When I finally whirrled around to give the drummer a cue, I screamed like a 6 year old when I saw her standing there. I thought I was home alone and I coudn't hear a THING with those headphones on.

Yeah, she laughed at me. For all my rock 'n' roll coolness, all I could manage was a shaky "don't sneak up behind me like that!"

My ex-girlfriend caught me jamming out to "The Chicken" from Jaco's Birthday Concert. I didn't know she was coming over and she just walked into my room while I was playing/dancing. Fortunately I wasn't going TOO crazy (I kept my shirt on and there wasn't any face paint involved).
She was awesome though. She liked the song and told me to finish playing.

is that the one that starts off with the "hello everyone.. i'd like to say hello to my father.." ?
