[gig from hell story about a party reveler dying from a heart attack in front of the bandstand deleted ]

A fellow bassist had a similar experience, in which a wedding guest keeled over on the dance floor. After the paramedics tried valiantly (and unsuccessfully) to revive him and were rolling the stretcher off the floor, the banquet manager frantically approached the bandleader, urging him to play something ``to keep the party going''.

Flustered, the bandleader called what was on his stand, and the bass player dutifully began the tune:

``Another One Bites The Dust''!

True story.
