A CASE OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY.....

SO THERE I WAS THE OTHER NIGHT,PLAYING AS ONE DOES,DOING MY GIG...WE FINISH THE SHOW AND AFTERWOODS WENT OUTSIDE FOR SOME COOL AIR ,A CIGARETTE, AND TO RELAX AFTER LEAKING LIKE AN OLD SHIP FOR NEARLY TWO HOURS ,AND WAS ENJOYING THE COOL AIR WHEN SOMEONE WALKS UP TO ME AND SAYS "HELLO, GREAT SHOW" AND THANKS FOR COMIN TO WHEREVER IT WAS ....WE CHAT FOR A WHILE AND THEN ASKED ME ," WHAT HAPPENED TO THE LAST DRUMMER" ? "WHICH ONE"? I REPLY ...."I THINK HIS NAME WAS PETE THOMPSON" HE SAID LOOKIN STRAIGHT IN TO MY FACE .SLIGHTLY TAKEN ABACK AS I STILL HAD THE LOUD (BOOK HIM DANNO,MURDER ONE.) SHIRT ON,AND TRYING TO REMEMBER WHO HAD PLAYED DRUMS THIS PARTICULAR NIGHT (SIC),AND REALLY TRYING NOT TO COME BACK WITH A WRY ANSWER , SAID "WELL... I AM PETE". HE WAS HAVING NONE OF IT ,TRYING TO CONVINCE ME I WASN'T ME ..OK IVE GROWN MY HAIR ,GOT A TACHE AND A GOATEE NOW,BUT DO I LOOK THAT DIFFRENT . I MEAN THIS GUY WAS DOWN THE FRONT ALL NIGHT LOOKIN AT ME AND CHEERING AND WAVING , AND HE SAID ALSO HE WAS A BIG FAN OF PETES ..GO FIGURE ......I SIGNED AN AUTOGRAPH WILLINGLY FOR HIM AND RETREATED TO THE DRESSING ROOM TO GET A DRINK .SMILING TO MYSELF .........I WONDER IF HE WILL EVER SEE THAT I SIGNED IT GINGER BAKER ....MAYBE NOT EH ?
