This is why I always have a mic hooked up to the mixer so I can start beatboxing till the crew fix the problem.

nothing sucks more when something goes wrong during your set that you cant control.this happened too me last weekend, power went out, sound and lighting went right out with it right just when i was getting to make the next track hit. as everone yealed ohhhhh i yealed out
"who's touching my ass" and got a laugh and the luckly the power was turned back on like 30 seconds later.

may be not that long but still what a buzz KILL!!

I shat my pants.

Was wearing white chinos and white jocks.

this thread is about uncontrollable mishaps?

Playing at a house party using my own speaker setup, half way thru my set my subwoofer blew. I was forced to play with no sub for the rest of the set...that sucked.

At a club with dodgey setup

only 1 headphone speaker worked (mixer stuffed)

stage unstable so the stylus skipped when you moved near the table and when some light-tech-guy came running up and down fixing the fog machine and lights.

It was werid I could not beatmatch just wonderin what was goin on id get it in then it would go to a trainwreak while cue-in a track up till i noticed the whole table rocked when you moved around on the stage and the stylus kepted skipping.

You dont expect everything to be perfect with the setup its expected that faders are stuck on with blue-tack and only one heaphone speaker works but at least the thing your standing on could be stable, so you can get into the music with the stylus skipping. (now investing in cds)

there was a sweet sixteen gig once at the top floor of a banquet hall and as the bday girl later found out, there were these haters whom the girl had not invited, so out of envy, they came from outside and threw up towards the glass window a shaken-up can of coke which broke the glass and everyone yelled and there i was right in front of the window with my brand new dj setup (lucky for me the can missed my head by a few inches and hit somebody else--which still sucks for them) and the worst part of all, my equipment had tiny shattered pieces of glass all over it! (not to mention the sticky coke syrup all over everything...until this day, i still find some tiny pieces of glass in the giant cd case i was using (but thank God no functional damage to any of the equipment)...other than that, the gig was awesome...but it was funny how RIGHT at the instance when this happened, everyone crapped in their pants out of fear, and i still remember that moment like it happened yesterday..i swear i thought someone had fired a gun towards us!
