My favourite Muppet story.

@AlisonW you've got to think that it's probably not actually true, but dammit, it's funny anyway

@alister
Sadly, as a former sound engineer, I believe it is totally true.

This famously happened with Charlie McCarthy during a radio performance. I suspect the story has been revamped for a younger audience.

Could be. A vent act on radio was a very off the wall idea!

[churchhatestucker@mefi.social]

@AlisonW It really did push the "theater of the mind" idea.
