Default Chin

Dave:
I was schlepping the Baker into the Orillia Opera House one sunny day. Gordie Tapp, who was on the show, was sunning himself, complete with a reflector on his chin, 80 years old. He said, "Sonny, I hope when you get where you are going, that they ask you to play"! I said that I had heard that line before, he attributed it to Joe Niosi, who was responsible for bringing my bass and Ed Tate's old Kennedy from England to Canada.
I believe Joe was boarding a bus at the time, and some ancient woman said this to him.
By the way, I'm a grouch, and I usually ignore people who say stupid things. Original lines, yes, I'll stop and talk.

cheers,

Jack
