My worst gig was with a Metallica cover band (the set was exclusively metallica) , the bassist was great , the rhythm guitarist (who was also doing the vocals) was good at guitar , but his vocaling wasn't pretty impressive... Anyway , the drummer absolutely su*ked !! He was still a beginner (not good for a beginner anyway) ... I don't remember that we finished any song without stopping in the middle waiting for the drummer to get back in time or to adjust his bass drum !!! Not to mention the way he played the double bass part from the song "One" which was making everybody laugh.

Anyway , to save my reputition from a disaster , I decided to show off at the middle of the gig by playing some solos with the guitar over my head and some shred improvisations between songs , so I got a nice reaction from the crowd ... I was a bit selfish , but I had to !
