Jim worked a gig where the security briefing covered bombs, weapons and, at far greater length, collapsible chairs. Jackie was very clear. No chairs. He also ate a cheeseburger from the hot counter…
I worked at Rock and Roll Circus a few weeks ago for the Streets gig.
And there was a woman called Jackie on the security team.
And my favorite thing about this entire scenario was she was briefing all the people that were working on the gates, um, that were security.
And they were, she was like, you know, the obvious things, if they're ticking, probably, you know, alert a higher member of security because they might have a bomb on them, check, pat them down for weapons.
But the thing that she went in on the most was collapsible chairs and she was going, I don't want to see a single chair in there.
And I was just honestly, I was, I was piercing myself laughing.
I was howling with laughter.
All the things of all the things she's going in hard.
She's like, and then, and people, you see people, right? They're devious.
They might collapse these chairs.
They might have them in the backpack.
You got to check them backpacks.
I don't want to see any chairs in there.
No chairs in there.
You know, I can just imagine companies now building, you know,
when you take drugs into a festival and you can buy like necklaces that hide them and stuff.
I can see companies now taking advantage of them, making covert tiny chairs.
Or you could just put like a couple of legs down
your trousers.
Well, you know, you wear like a waistcoat that is actually the chair covering.
I'm
thinking like how dealers do Glastonbury.
They've just gone in, they've dug a hole, they've buried loads of chairs and people are just digging chairs out of the ground.
Like, I was like, what's the problem with chairs? She's like, not me.
Not me.
