While dj'ing what's the most idiotic/funniest thing that happend to you???

The first time anyone let me play out I got ont he decks and started to cue up my track. I thought it was beatmatched and I start to bring it in on phrase to find out I didn't even have the cue in the headphones the whole time. Massive trainwreck!

Last saturday when I played at a private party a drunk fell against the table my 2x1210's and 2xPioneer CDJ 500S' went into the floor...one of the cd players also got soaked in beer...:whip: :whip: :whip:

thought the track that was playing was teh track that I just got done mixing out of. a little silence followed.

cued a track up with the fader open. however, it was almost matched to begin with, so almost no one noticed...
Freak
too many to list
Selected highlights include:

Fire alarm in front of 1900 people (mutes music and recorded message saying 'please evacuate') causing us to evacuate at peak time on a saturday night , as well as other ocassions when it has been tripped off by excessive heat

Foam party, where the foam went over the turntables

drinks spilled on the (playing) record

taking the wrong record off

playing 3 tunes in a row with the bass kill switch activated :clown:

various venues where the vibrations from the dance floor skip the records

having the light rig trip off and leave the place in darkness (great fun )

i think the most fun one was either chaning mixers half way through the night (power supply was buggered) , or changing the cd player half way through the night...

loads more

the first time I ever spun out i go throw a cd in a Denon dual cd deck and I guess the pitch was locked so I couldn't beatmatch at all. I couldn't figure it out and figured I'd just pitch bend like crazy when I brought it in....huge trainwreck...

Two weekends ago I was playing out and played Blue haze - Into Nothing twice in a matter of about 7 minutes accidentally. I have a few SAW records that look the same in the dark so I got thrown off.

And a few times I've taken off the needle on the live song instead of the one I just mixed out of.

In a rush, I spun around with the next record and focusing on the label of the record, I attempted to put it on the TT that had the record that was already playing.

People spilt various drinks on the turntables whenever I spun at parties . Not very interesting I know :D

dropped the needle on my first record, about a minute in, someone kicked the plug and it disconnected from the surge protector.
