Electric Legend

Nancy seriously electrocuted herself on stage the other night. Don't panic - she's okay.

The Negotiators Duo were up at Hamley Bridge gigging at a friend's birthday at the local (for some photos of a previous visit, click here). End of first song, audience settling in, Steve working his gear (I think) and Nancy standing there completing a circuit with full mains power flowing through. For quite a few seconds she stood there, incapable of moving. No-one seemed to notice. And then the power shorts and she's thrown to the ground.

Not knowing if she's still 'live' or not, the girl scout in her comes out and she tells people to not touch her, supine on the floor. The local Country Fire Service Paramedic dude is apparently doing the same thing. In a few minutes she's having a cup of tea. A few minutes more and the show kicks off again. The paramedical dude stayed til stumps. Apparently there was dancing on the bar before the night was done.

Now that's a rock'n'roll legend in my mind! Still, I'm glad I wasn't there. I would have freaked.

Hopefully NOT repeating that performance, Nancy and Steve front for The Negotiators in our hiatus breaking gig this Friday Night at Club 168 in Port Adelaide from about 10 pm.

PS Nancy's been checked out medically. All systems OK. The doctor's were impressed!
