        'Famous' Irish cheesy female singer, who shall remain nameless, took a dislike to henwrench because he had simply had enough after she insisted on soundchecking for over 2 hours. 2 hours! Singer goes to toilet, for a shit or something. henwrench removes mic (SM58) from stand and asks tape-op to keep watch...
        Trousers dropped, I insert the bulbous mic end into my anus/rectum and have a good old root around. Microphone is placed back on stand in the nick of time.
        Soundcheck recommences.
        Cheesy Irish female singer comes in close to the mic, at the request of yours truly. Her eyes begin to water. Tape-op falls from his chair when I point this out to him.
         Cheesy Irish Manager asks his client what's wrong when she starts to splutter and heave at the mic. He thinks she is having a heart attack. She is quite old.
         'I dunno,' she quivers 'The mic....the mic, smells all funny....'
        Tape-op is hiding under the mixing desk by now. Manager asks henwrench to sort it out....I gingerly sniff the mic. Sweet Jesus, it really does smell bad. henwrench suggests the lady rinses her mouth with TCP, and the session, thankfully, is aborted....
