^ you are, because I’d absolutely be a groupie for St. Vincent

You're a woman?

Annie is into the whole spectrum.

She's just great, just generally.

It definitely hasn’t died out, I know a lady who is into offering sexual favours to band members, just so she can boast about who she’s had to her friends. 

Patsy Kensit?

My only experience of a 'groupie' was when our band played at the 102 Club in Derby. A lady approached me and asked if I would like to go to her house and watch some dirty videos.

Tempting as it was(n't), the lady in question was wearing an all black ensemble of bomber jacket, jeans and Doc Martens. Her neck was also wider than her head. The close cropped hair probably accentuated that, to be fair.

I appreciate that I was STILL punching above my weight, but I respectfully (and fearfully) declined.

One of my mates married a girl from York. We were getting pissed in the Lowther with some of their mates and someone piped up with 'Hey Rachel, weren't you shagging the drummer from Shed 7 before you met James?'.

The guy sat next to me tapped me on the shoulder and discreetly said 'She's been through a lot more of that band than just the drummer' :-)

That makes for a great groom's speech at the wedding:

My wife likes Shed Seven,
She especially likes Rick Witter,
She said "Fk that!
Take off your hat,
And do me up the *******!"

Women are more discerning, blokes'll shag anything.

You obviously don't know the same girls we used to hang out with.

I've known a three girls that could be considered 'groupies', proper serious ones.

When I was at Hard Rock Hell a few years back, Quiet Riot headlined with Jizzy Pearl on guitar. I was stood to the side of the stage, in the area where the bands would come and go.

There was a rather hot lady there who kept going backstage with various people. She was stood near me when Jizzy (or 'Jizz' to his mates) asked if she'd like to go to his dressing room. She gave the most weathering look I have ever seen and flatly said "No".

So yeah, groupies do still exist - although not to the same extent I'd imagine.

Our previous band drummer was once chased down the side alley to the pub by a girl with calipers on her legs. He was wearing a Santa's outfit at the time. No, I don't know, either.

Swears blind he didn't pork her, but he was gone quite a while, so we just put two and two together and came up with five.

I bought a used copy of a Black Crowes album (I think it was the self-titled debut album) from Cash Convertors in Derby once. The woman at the till muttered the band's name, thought for a moment, pointed at one of the hapless Crowes on the cover and announced that she'd shagged him.

Still my least favourite Crowes album.

... and that's the problem with today's rock stars... no staying power.
