I was at this show. Buckler harshly flung his drumsticks into the audience and hit my friend badly right in the ear. We had to take him to the hospital. Jerk.

[@RebeccaTurner-ny1xx]

How many in the audience knew the title was 'Eton Rifles' rather than the slightly bewildering 'Eaten Rifles'? Perhaps he should have retitled it 'Princeton Rifles'.
