Haha, I forgot about the sock incident, that was a great one! “Eric the Fish” holding up a sock during our performance of “Bus Stop” (referring to our music video) cracked us up for sure!
Okay, let me think of some more examples (and there are plenty ;-))…
– During Holiday season, a drunk Christmas elf tried to storm the Cavern stage. Very festive!
Or
– Mona misplacing her capo on stage not just once but TWO TIMES during a show, having to stop the entire performance super awkwardly! Looking around, scratching her head, audience members started to help her find it (Turns out she placed her silver capo on top of the silver bass drum … good move ;-))
In her defence I should add that this has been one of our very first shows we had played in Austria, and we were clearly not that organised yet haha
Or
– At a show in London we once accidentally locked ourselves and two other bands IN the backstage area (the already weak door handle decided to break that very moment). The compère who was about to announce us to the audience had to get us all out (while someone from the film crew who was locked in with us nearly had a panic attack!).
