That’s nice but he did say seeing the woman doing that was the most humiliating experience of his life 😂

Awww, I wasn't there, obvs, but from your anecdote I took that the balloon failure was the humiliation, not the enthusiastic 15yo.

I'm sure the humiliation related much more to his abject failure to operate his own stagecraft than to 15yr old you's enthusiastic joy at getting that balloon. If no-one had got a single balloon it would've been worse.

I can understand that wish from a revenge for personal experience of his anecdote pov, but with the greater humiliation of zero balloons, Jarvis Cocker might've given up performing entirely, and the world would be worse for everyone #MonkeysPaw
