Tom Gallacher - what a boy! I played with him a few times in the orchestra pit in the Carnegie Hall. One night he forgot his glasses and had to lean forward to read the dots. For any of you not fortunate enough to know him, he plays trombone. Can you see where this one is going? Nope? Well neither could Tom, his slide kept dinking the back of a female bassoonists head and an almighty row ensued. She was henceforth known as poison Ivy, and Tom was a very naughty boy.

Another story starring "Mr. G", which I posted many moons ago Nonny..

This is certainly ONE of the funniest things I've seen on a gig..
