TGI fridays--who's joe

as i was eating dinner at TGI friday's this evening i heard something familiar; my mother asked me why i was suddenly sniffing around like a bloodhound. the reason: the first bars of who's joe were coming from the speakers in the restaurant. i couldn't believe i was hearing this song in TGI friday's, of all places.

one of the stranger music-related moments i've had.

TGI Fridays? who would have thunk it!! i would have asked if they have satellite radio or if one of the employees got to play their cd's.

Was in jjb sports barnsley trying t shirts on for my impending vacation to venezuela ,was in the changing rooms when krafty came on,ther was no one around so i then proceeded to sing very loudly.A raised voice then asked me "are you ok in there" ,i dont usually do embarrassed but i certainly blushed that day!! When i emerged from the changing rooms the rather cute sales assistant was pissing herself with laughter!

More spotting;

Forbidden Planet, the London comic store, always plays the most amazing alternative music.

Unknown Pleasures was on when I last went; that made my 30-odd minutes in the shop a very pleasurable experience indeed!

BLT - clothes shop in Cuzco, Peru

stopped me dead in my tracks

I remember being in a bar somewhere about 2 years ago,thinking to myself "the music in this place is shite". after half an hour i spoke up,complaining to the lads how crap it was-soon as i opened my mouth the Lee Coombs mix of Crystal came on. Naturally my non New Order loving mates thought that was hysterical.

They must play the same CD throughout the JJB chain.I was in JJB in my town the other week and Krafty was playing.

I was in ICELAND the foodstore in CHORLEY recently and they played "TURN THE HEATER ON"

Ah I see that's where it was.

Would that be Wild or Mild?

i used to work at a gap, and we used to change music reels every month. one month, the album version of blt was on so for the whole month, i got to hear it. i used to stay in the store after my shift if i knew the song was coming up during the reel. it actually sounded great on the sound system.

It makes a lot more sense now. :)

I think probably the best experience for me is when they were playing Les Baines Douches in Select-A-Disc just off Oxford St. Although that is a record store so somewhat expected...

Bought my LWTUA shirt there that time too.
