Seems you're right. Well done. You'd get rep for that, if the system would let me.
All About Eve infamously failed to take their cue to mime Martha's Harbour live in 1988. The music played out for broadcast, the cameras went through the choreographed moves, but someone forgot to turn on the studio monitors. The result - the poor saps just sat there, shrugging bemusedly at the audience, for the first two minutes of the song. Career killer? Well, it didn't help much, put it that way.
