Live Performances Gone Awry


I couldn't help but think about the time I saw Steven Tyler stagger across the stage and pass out back in the early 80's, and how Stevie Nicks cancelled a concert at the New York State Fair around 1987-88 because she had such a bad cocaine problem. The Stevie Nick's show really upset me because she didn't reschedule and they didn't announce it until two hours before the show.

Anyone one else have any poor experiences at a live show they'd like to share? Grateful Dead welcome but please no stories of fans.

How can you expect him to remember anything? You have to know something before you can remember it !!!!
I saw Ted Nugent in the late 1970s and I could swear he peed his pants on stage.
Not too surprising, given his level of critical thinking skills. Wouldn't be surprised if he regularly poops his pants too since ol' terrible turd is at least 98% arsehole.
Was in the front frow for one of The Who farewell tours. Saw Pete Townsend windmill and cut his hand on the guitar pick-up. He tried to finish the song but was bleeding profusely and had to leave for hospital. Luckily, it was near end of concert, but had to suffer through watching Roger Daltry trying to play guitar for the encore.

My other favorite was going to see a Dave Matthews - Tim Reynolds acoustic show. Woman behind us was singing "along" very loud -- the only time she actually hit a note was pure randomness. Guy next to me (complete stranger) says, "she's killing me" and I agree. We end up playing rock-paper-scissors to determine who will say something to her. Of course, I lose. So after the next song, I lean back and say, "Any chance we can leave the singing to the people on stage?" She asks what? I reply that we had paid a lot for the tickets and she was distracting, and maybe she could tone it down a bit. She was quiet for a song and then yelled madly during the applause. Half-way through the next song, she punched my chair and she and her date left. Felt kinda bad that I might have ruined their night, but I know dang well that she was ruining our night.
