My favorite encore might be one time I saw Sincere Engineer. Someone in the audience shouted "play corn dog sonnet!. That's one of their "hits" as far as small bands go.
But the band had already played it earlier in the set, and said so. The audience person shouted back "I was late! I missed it!"
The singer went, "well, I guess we could play it again if everyone wants to hear it again"
The crowd cheered , so they played it again.
Back in college, I saw the meat puppets open for another band. (I think it might have neen deerhoof?) Pretty much the whole venue staff came to see that show, and we all showed upeqrly, psyched to see them play, whereas a lot of the audience filtered in later to see just the headliner. After the headliners played, we semi jokingly started a chant, 'bring back the meat puppets!' And they did it, Using a lot of the headliners equipment, like drums and amps and stuff. I like to think I helped introduce some kids to the meat p I pets that day.
