People who wear T shirts with the word "Crew" on the back who are not Roadies for Motorhead, the Grateful Dead or someone similar.
There was a time when having a t-shirt with the word "crew" on the back, immediately identified you as a 30 something, beer-bellied, amephetamine-crazed lunatic who's job it was to hump amps up to the stage whilst saying "testing, two, two". Then with the gig underway you'd be supplying drugs to the drummer whilst throwing stage invaders back into the wrecking/mosh pit head first, only to spend time after the show cleaning stains from the inside of the tour bus, made by the union of the lead singer and some local tawdry bint with herpes.
Nowadays it's Otaki Flower Show = Crew T shirt. Plimmerton Women's Rug-Weavers Centennial dinner = Crew T shirt. Pak N Save 10% of Catfood extravaganza = Crew T shirt.
FFS you are a friggin steward/busybody/pain in the arse you are not part of a crew!
I blame WOMAD, when you start putting on rubbish, gay festivals with jugglers and sh*t this is what happens.
