When I was a kid and saw concert videos of rock bands I always dreamed of being the one that got to catch the drum stick or guitar pick tossed out into the audience. You had to be paying attention, you had to have good reflexes and you had to be in just the right spot. Finally one year I was at a small club show standing right up against the stage. The opening band’s equipment was set up at the front of the stage and I was standing right next to the drummer. During one song a stick cracked and when the song ended he turned and handed it to me. Not nearly as dramatic as those rock videos made it seem.

Today’s Biff speeds it up.
