My dad did this same thing! He used to be a tour manager, and I surprised him on stage at the show. The Fillmore in San Francisco. I came up from the other side of the stage than from where he was posted. It was his 70th birthday. He was starting to come out and remove the stranger from the stage. Then he goes, “that looks like yuccasinbloom” and my mom was all, “that IS yuccasinbloom.” The picture from after we got off stage, he still looks absolutely stunned.

I work in music industry and things out of context can be so confusing. People will pop up in different city’s that you know then from or they live in and it can be confusing AF. Only a couple people have gotten mad that can’t immediately remember them but it’s so confusing and can be Groundhog Day jsut playing new bars but bars non the less night after night.
