Another musical interlude

I went to the boozer half an hour before I was due to play, so I could have a quick half pint before I kicked off. I had such a lovely surprise when I got there, as two of my close people were sat outside having a wail of a time with two of my favourite social friends. These friends only spend part of their time in this town, and they come and see me whenever they are down here.
I really didn't fancy playing last night, and didn't mind that the customers weren't taking any notice of me. I belted out the pub songs for about an hour, then had a break chatting to my friends. Then I murdered some Mozart for a bit and then stopped. I felt as if my brain was about to give way, so decided that I'd finished for the night. I spent the rest of the evening sitting outside with my group, and having a bloody good laugh and a pint or two. In the meanwhile the landlord had materialized, but I couldn't give a stuff. I'd played for about an hour and three quarters. By my reckoning he'd already had more than had his money's worth.
