The high cost of fame

I was at my friend Alex's birthday BBQ at the weekend, and before I managed to get so drunk that I thought I would share my karaoke version of "Baby Got Back" with the room, I had an awesome time. To be fair, I continued to have an awesome time throughout my drunkenness, it was just the next morning that I cringed with embarrassment.


Before I did I met Alex's new band, a five-piece, all female pop-rock group called "My Heroine", who were absolutely lovely (expect big things from them). One of the band members was convinced that she knew me, and seemed slightly affronted that I didn't remember her. After we established that I had never met her before, and had no shared friends except for Alex, she remembered that she had seen me from the "Jane to the Future" video that Jane's friend Ed made us as our wedding present. Obviously Alex had shown her it at some point, but it was my first ever encounter of being recognised by someone I didn't know (and to be fair, it will probably be the last).


Anyway, it made me think of how fond I am of that video, so decided to post again in it's entirety here.


Good times...
