Live Brain Aid

My wife (mish-mash mousse) attended a Journey/Def Lepperd concert this past Friday. (...Primarily to see Journey, her favorite group; however, she stayed for both acts.) As Journey performed, my wife was very much enjoying the show, while most folks seated around her were obviously there to hear the 80's hair metal band from Britain. Right in the middle of Journey's "Faithfully," as 10,500 fans were on their feet, MMM felt a tap on her shoulder, startling her a bit. She turned around to see a woman mouthing words to her, with some dude who looks like "Milton" from the movie "Office Space" sitting next to her with a melancholy look. Due to the volume, my wife signaled to the woman that she hadn't heard what she said. The woman cupped her hands around her mouth, and yelled, "DO YOU HAVE A PEN???"
Flabbergasted, my wife answered, "NO!" and signed that she was not in possession of a purse or anything else.
The woman was unfazed. Pointing to Milton, she yelled, "His best friend is the lead singer!"

Yeah, judging by his enthused stance, it looked like it. My guess is that she felt she could get an autograph from Jouney front-man Steve Augeri, but the timing of her request was odd...

Later, as Def Leppard took the stage, between songs, fans cheered and excitedly talked. One listener, referring to DL's lead guitarist, Phil Collen, blathered, "I wonder if Phil Collins is going to sing tonight? He's got such a great voice!" Obviously, a case of mistaken identity, imagining Phil (note: spelling of name not even the same!) Collins from "Genesis."

Well, nobody said it was going to be a concert to benefit the local mensa club!!!
