When I first arrived in Ft Lauderdale I joined a couple of Blues/Rock groups that performed at biker events and bars.
I was
honored (and relieved) when they took me in and I made some good friends -
but when these guys give you a nickname you better roll with it.
In one bar there was a neon sign behind me on stage that read: 'Are you Thirsty?'
With my
raspy voice someone thought it was kind of funny to keep asking me that
question…over and over, every time they saw me. Anyway it caught on and the name stuck.
I’m just glad they didn’t call me 'Sally'
