This is a question Performance

Have you ever - voluntarily or otherwise - appeared in front of an audience? How badly did it go?

I'd thought I wouldn't comment this week, for many reasons.
But the post below reminded me of something worth sharing.
A few years ago a friend of mine was asked to play guitar and sing at a christmas carol session in a Baptist Church, where some of his relatives are members of the congregation.
My friend isn't religious, but he said yes out of politeness, and asked me to come along to help out with the music.
We got there, and it turned out that the parish was currently without a minister, which meant that we, as the people on stage, were going to be leading a religious service.
My friend got very nervous, as he'd left the church in question a long time previously. As I'd lapsed from another faith, I felt no qualms about pointing out to the locals that we weren't really prayerful types.
"Don't worry, son," said one parishioner, "we don't need to be told how to pray. Just play the tunes."

Is this a blues-brothers reference?
Because if it's not referring to something its shit.
