I got called from musician union sub drumming for old standard four piece band. Stand up bass sax accordion me on drums. Most leaders want to make you can play brushes, Cha Cha waltzes swing etc, this guy want to make sure I wore a Red Blazer (has to borrow from my dad). Pick us in the van. And first thing he ask “ hey kid you got your Red Blazer. I know standards but these songs wait before my time. If u ever saw the three stooges where the guy says know that song I wrote it. That happen to me, paid my dues
