Weirdly, one of the fondest memories I have of live music:
Hawkwind playing the NYC Limelight years ago, and during an
instrumental sequence, Ron Tree, covered in green paint,
clearly stoned out of his mind, wandering out onto the stage
and wrapping his arms around the mic stand while red lights
washed over him.  It was somehow surreally perfect...
