Comment on The Genesis of a joke.

Just saw an interview with Peter Gabriel where he said people come up to him almost daily and tell him how they much they loved Trick of the Tail. He just had this defeated look on his face when he said he had to keep telling them that was Phil and not him.

Many years ago, I had the pleasure of being at a table at a con next to the late Richard Hatch. The con was pretty disappointing in terms of turn-out, so I kept him cracking up all day.
When people came up to his table and go, “you’re uh… uh…” I would lean over to them and say quietly, “don’t call him Dirk Benedict. He hates that.”
Thanks for bringing up a fun memory.
