Boy on a Dolphin
Boy On A Dolphin is a band from Sheffield, England. They presumably derived their name from the 1957 Sophia Loren film, her English-language debut.
At last report, the band's personnel consisted of:
JOHN REILLY- Lead Vocals/ Acoustic Guitar/ Lyricist
ANDY NEEDHAM - Bass Guitar
PETE HILEY - Lead Spanish and Electric Guitars
DARREN FORD - Drums
JAMES JARWARDANA - Piano/Keys (Joined Oct 2005)
“Songs! Songs! THE SONG! That’s all there is for me. I’m not interested in all the rest of the stuff.” Says Dolphin front man JOHN REILLY, who then goes on to quote Charlie Parker. “Music is your own experience, your thoughts, your wisdom. If you don’t live it, it won’t come out”

I will never understand why there is always a small group of people who give a "thumbs down" when anyone posts an absolutely perfect GIF. I mean, this one is totally perfect. Lighten up, Francis!
LOL!!! I can't explain how I love this unless I tell you that one Halloween I finally wore the obvious coustume... and ROCKED Miss Piggy like I was born to be her. Avoided that one because fat girls never want to dress up as fat anything... I'm tall and fat (just unacceptably over the line of plump) with rather noticeable buxomness ... anyway, I got so very much attention in that costume, got all my line of friends into two packed clubs with long lines... bouncers would yell to us way down the line... "hey, Miss Piggy, c'mon" and we were in. I kept hoping someone would be dressed as Kermit, at minimum so we could run to each other and embrace. I alread figured if I ran into a Kermie he would be gay, but who cares? Woulda been a moment! Half my posse were gay guys!
Technically and biologically, porpoises and dolphins are similar but different creatures.
Sounds fishy to me.
The world needs more binga-bonga. That's what it needs!
Bump
Miss you Cynaera!
Is this the best post on RP ever? Quite possibly...

This is a wonderful story, and bless you for owning who you are enough to leverage it for a costume - obviously, the bouncers got it, which is why they wanted you inside!
I wish I was in your crew that night! Your story made my day!
