My band once played Tarkus at a school dance to an audiance comprised largely of reggae fans. During the section that started ... "Clear the Battlefield and let me see..." we were pelted with Coke cans (a coincidence, I promise) and a teacher asked us to leave the stage. The following day at school I was told by a pupil that I didn't know that they'd heard one of our tunes on the radio that morning... it was our opener Hocus Pocus by Focus. That comment made me feel a little better. I also found our vintage CopyCat echo unit on the staff-room window ledge.. a double helping of good feeling.
