C.O.D.B.E.


Years ago a well-known professional drummer friend of mine had quit his normal (funk) band, and did a few gigs with a '70s rock band.

They were in some city for a gig and when the limousine pulled up to the hotel to take them to the auditorium for a concert, the chauffeur hopped out and said, "I'm the supervisor. This here limousine is C.O.D.B.E.!"

Turns out the band still owed the limo company from the previous trip, and "C.O.D.B.E." meant "Cash On Delivery Before Entering".
