I got a call about a week shy of my 1st wedding anniversary. I was told that a HUGE spur of the moment gig had come up for that weekend. I asked the wife if she thought I should take the job since it was in our town, not on the road. She said "Do whatever you want"...I told her it would be cool for her to come along. She gave just about everybody in the band the "Go to Hell laser stare" that night...
I guess I should not have played the gig, but we get a big laugh out of it now over a decade later...I even have one of my bandmates phone her every now and then to tell her we have gigs on that date.
