I played with my band in a big park, with a 20.000+ crowd, really a big one for me back then (and the first). Things had to go wrong...
First, our cameraman walked by my amp while I was up front doin' the outro-solo and CUT!...he dragged the ****in' cable out of my amp!! (since, I've used tape to keep the cable in place even if I hang myself in it!)
Second, I used a wireless system, so I could get around the stage. But the stage was so big and lacked of monitors, so when I ran over to the other guitarist, I couldn't hear **** of what I was playing! I thought "**** it!" and played on along with my fellow guitarist, but I can't garantee how it sounded and the others in the band just smiled at me, cause I looked real lost.
Last, (still the same concert) when we had played the last tune and stood backstage, the showannouncer yelled to the crowd about extras. Somehow, he ****ed up his pep-talk and made the crowd go "Nooooooooo!!....Nooooooooooooo!".
Of cause, we thought that they really really hated us and I had never in my life experienced a crowd shout "NOOO!" like that. Suddently, I big bouncer pushed us back on the stage and the crowd went "YEEEEAAAAAAHHHHH!!" and we played one more tune with our nerves shakin'. Scary moment of my life I'll say!!!
