ScoopGods.com - A Buddhist group was recently treated to a little excitement in the form of Rock and Roll.  The renown rock group Thin Lizzy made the trip to China in order to put on a concert for a small community living near Nanking.  The band performed on a small stage in front of a temple and reportedly put on quite a show.

"We don't know of such things out here in our peacefulness," said a monk who couldn't stop smiling, "IThe monks didn't know what to expect when the band showed up felt myself dancing prior to thought."

The band stormed into the area in a truck containing their gear and a portable stage.  The monks were just finishing up a morning mediation and had about an hour to burn before they sat down to a meager meal of 4 grains of rice and thimble full of imaginary water.  Many of them did a double take when the band, their stage hands, and a small band of groupies appeared at the scene and quickly setup.

"Yeah there was a lot of staring at us going on, but no one said anything," said Scott Gorham of Thin Lizzy, "There was a friendly little fellow who sat on my lap while I warmed up my guitar.  He had a pleasant smell about him."

Gorham performs "Jailbreak"When the music began to play many members of the temple sat down in front of the stage and watched.  A fan named "Chris" from the United States who traveled with the band got up during the "The Boys are Back" and started doing a spinning, pirouetting dance that brought many approving smiles to the monks faces.

"That American, he's crazy," said monk Kiet Chan Thouch, "He didn't dance too well, but his energy raised us to a level of ecstasy."

Another groupie, a well endowed woman named Levita, became intoxicated halfway through the first song and began squashing the heads of various monks between her lotioned breasts.  This caused many of the monks to "tent out" the front of their saffron robes.  Chris would shout out "boingoingoing" with glee at each new "tenting."

The show went on into the late afternoon creating a conflict with the afternoon meditation period, but head monk Koa Suon believed that altering the schedule was not a bad thing in this case.

"We will simply began our meditations again tomorrow,"  said Suon while he unsuccessfully tried to obscure the tent in the front of his robe.  As the tent broke free from his efforts to hold it down, Chris popped up from behind him and enunciated a loud "boingoingoing" while raising a beer.

After 3 encores the show finally wound down and Thin Lizzy began to pack up their truck.  Time was short as they hand to head back to the United States in time to perform at the opening of a new bar in San Antonio.

"This was a truly rewarding experience," said Gorham as the band and the rest of the entourage piled into the vehicles, "I'd come here again.  These monk guys know how to party."
