Crazy dancers - was NOLA Blues Fest

[Kim Mason]

Been a few times, saving someone from doing an unplanned pole dance  around the P.A. speakers... at a benefir, no less, one couple gets too "animated" andShe ends up doing the butt slide across the dance floor, into the speaker pole, knocking over My Strat and putting a dent in (of course) the face. Not even as much as a "sorry"......
  Got pretty good at catching a flying mike and stand mid song, but one gal landed on top of My pedalboard... good thing I needed the Vox Wah on that tune.
  Maybe the guy @ Red's w/ the armor-plate strat had the right idea....

  Same thing happened to my boyfriend, crazy drunk dancer hit the mic nailing him right between the eyes, knocked him out for a couple of seconds. The stage barely fits a drum kit and the dance floor is just as small so any one playing this club takes a huge risk when it comes to getting injured by crazy dancers.

The musicians typically are more concerned about damage to themselves, dislodged speaker stands, damaged floor monitors, etc. to ever consider "goofy dancers" funny enough to laugh about...
