Homonyms ate my baby

Some time ago, I was in a random conversation with a dude from the music world.
Being a generous type of lass, I casually asked him what he had been doing lately.
He answered that he had been "supporting the cause".
This tickled my fancy.
I also thought it was pretty admirable, and wanted to share his particular interest with other people (see? I’m lovely).
However, he wasn’t such a well-known music dude that the limelight had identified him as being the promoter of anything specific.
Therefore, I thought it complete reasonable to ask
“Which one?”
Silence.
After a rather generous gap, he repeated that his band had been supporting THE CORRS.

I have never, never gotten over this.

Yikes! He suddenly went from mysteriously noble, interesting and most probably devilishly attractive... to really pretty lame.
I read this the day you posted it.
I am still chuckling.
If the Corrs ever buy a distortion pedal for thei rone guitar, can they change their name to "Corrs and Effect"?
Double yikes!
ha ha ha....corrs and effect.
Yes IN Craig - this story leaves many people in hysterical mirth.
Meva: Yikes indeed.
That's why I'm here.
