funny intermezzo's by concert tapers

[Pottel]

don't you love it when people who tape a show, or people that stand/sit near to a taper, say funny/bizarre stuff on the recording?
the idea for this topic hit me again whilst listening to the end of Portebello Belle in Vienna 83, at the end of the song it sounds as if the taper is threatened to get his ass kicked by another concert goer, or security dude, the viennese accent is hard to decipher.
another funny example is the taper of the 1985 oct. madison square garden show who kinda introduces the band and venue at the beginning of the show.
Anyone got anymore funny examples??

Lots of talking during the "Boothbay" recording, isn't it? I have to laugh every time when Mark amplifies his "Swing at MacBeth" story and one man in the audience shouts, somewhat impatient "Come on, Shakespeare".... and gets a good laugh from the audience...

Ok, I re-read the first post of pottel and I understand that I did not answer with the correct intension - but it was fun anyway...

I listened to Vienna 83 a lot and I often wondered what were they saying... So thanks Pottel
I remember that during the bass beats in Private Investigations they say something like "it's like Pink Floyd"

On the Boothbay audience one you can hear Gayle (I think) dropping lots of "F bombs"...

About 10 seconds into the start of Bewildered at the Notting Hillbilles recording from 23/05/97 (which I went to) you can hear someone clearly say, "old age pensioners in Blackpool".  I think thats an honest review of a crap song.

Hartford 09.10.85: at the end of Sultans someone says "boy the sultans sure did swing!"  And they sure did!

During the intro of Sailing to Philadelphia (at 00:25 in the SimfyLive recording) in Nimes 2010, Mark said "whaoo, it's beautiful".
I don't think it was audible in the audience.

That's normal we were at the front row...

Also on Simfy recordings especially on french gigs....
We hear some " I love you Maaaark" with an horrible french accent... awww poor girl LOL

The Emerald City 1980-02-12 tape is filled with funny comments. Right after MK tells the Les Boys story someone near the taper says, "I hope they didn't play any Grateful Dead music."

On the Manchester Simfy recording someone shouts "Give him a massage!"

At whichever of the 2002 shows I was at (I can't remember), I shouted out "Lend us a fiver Bobby!" to Bobby Valentino who had just won thousands of pounds in a court case. You can hear it on the bootlegs and in the video you can see him laugh.

Well, this is mostly about something Mark says, but we do have the episode from Japan in 1983 where someone in the audience keeps shouting for Skateaway. Mark seems to get tired of this and replies: "Skateaway, Skateaway, Skateaway... Where are you? Skateaway, Skateaway... Go on man, do us a favour - skate away!"

Not sure about the audio recording but on one of the video's of the Edinburgh 2005 show someone shouts "hey Mark, I thought this was the Shangri-La tour" so the promptly go into a version of the rarely played Back to Tupelo!

Just listened to that on YouTube and thought "what's the point?" People like that make me feel uncomfortable.

Yes, I was there and he shouted for "Shangri-La" after every song!   At least we were treated to a superb "Tupelo"!
