Years ago I was performing in the Baracudda where I was resident for years with the band The Flamingoes. We would support special nights with super famous Artists. This night the amazing Frankie Vaughan was appearing. I invited my Mum because she loved him so much he was such a big Star and an amazing performer, He was featured in a film with Marilyn Monroe and was always on UK TV shows. I met him at rehearsal and soundcheck it was great to see and hear him work. On the performance night I took my Mum into his dressing room to meet him she was like a gigling school girl. He said she was beautiful and enjoyed meeting her. Anyway during his performance as he normally does he opened a bottle of champagne and poured a glass wearing his Mr Moonlight Top Hat and cane, as he did he said he wanted to toast someone who was very special, he said Alice where are you darling? Oh Lord...........my Mum stood up and waved and shouted here I am Frankie then proceeded to retrieve a hanky from her bra and waved it at him hahahha. After his amazing performance which was enjoyed by all we went over the bridge to Tayport for a meal with him and his wife and a few other people including my Manager who was the owner of the club. I was sitting across from Frankie and about 18 years old at the this time and I was so star struck with him and his performance.. Well your girl ordered a steak, I actually had never had one before in my life so I thought yes why not...my meal was served and we were chatting away and all of a sudden it happened....I was trying to cut my steak and my peas and carrots went flying over the entire table hahahaha I wanted to die!!!! We all had a good laugh but I was so embarassed. Later that night I remember thinking oh I want to be as famous as him and have people come to see me and applaud like that. Such a good memory for me. ♫♪♫
