It was a harmonic convergence of technical horrors.

i've had a gig like that once, we're about to start the first song, i say to the crowd "hey, we're--" and my cellphone starts ringing, didn't answer it, continue introducing my band, we launch into the first song, my strap comes loose, one of my pedals or cables starts messing up, the other guitar players' amp gets turned off by itself, i go to sing into the mic and the stand falls down, someone unplugged my amp, the drummer drops his drumstick all the way to the front of the stage, the other guitar player's pedalboard shorts out or something...all in and out, my strap easily snapped three different times. by the end of our last song, the fucking lights go out and i ended up screaming to the air with just the drums backing me. i was quite frustrated but the other guys in the band were like "we did well" and other people dug the show.
