A particularly excitable and obstreperous young player was on clarinet and bass clarinet beside me. He was regularly playing tricks on others.
During the longer breaks when he was not playing the bass, I was servicing it, returning it to going order in plenty time for when it was next needed.
So one night, In my pocket I took along a few old surplus keys from the workshop.
Before an exposed bass 'solo',I did more servicing as usual, but just before the solo (where I also played flute), I sneaked out those extra keys, put on a panic performance with them, handed back the bass and the surplus keys on his lap, and picked up my flute ready to play.
LOL! Did HE 'wet' himself. Sweet revenge.
I suppose many friends here have not seen that side of me. :-)
