Hey who hasn't done something crazy at a concert or had something insane happen? lol post them up!

Eh for me a few years ago I had a concert the same day as a softball game and they were probably half an hour apart so i didn't get to eat and I had about three groups to perform in a jazz band, chorus, and concert band. In my last group I had a solo in the last song next thing you know i fainted in the middle of my solo on stage 0_o... embarassing lol

Oh wow...that is embarrasing. I was playing 2nd on Bugler's Holiday, and our 1st player just stopped playing...so it was sounding really lame. So I had to jump over and sightread the first part for the rest of the tune. It was pretty embarrasing for us tpts, because we always played it perfectly. ...all I can say is he played second from then on

I saw this post and I don't really care that I don't play the trumpet; I'm responding to this anyway.

Right before I went on stage to preform, I tripped and chipped a huge chunk of my reed against the wall I hit and I wasn't able to play at all during the concert. CONSIDER YOURSELFS LUCKY THAT TRUMPETS DON'T USE REEDS!!!

my most embarissing moment was that i had mexican food the afternoon of the concert so while i was at school i had to use the bathroom and i thought the jazz band was going last but they were going first. so while i was in the bathroom they were going on. so i showed up right b4 my solo and made it seem like a part of the show, so it wasn't really embarrassing until they asked why i took so long at the end of the concert lol.

one time a fuse blew at one of my concerts so i was in jazz band and i had to wait an extra half hour but we didnt play to the end and somebody kept flasing their cameras and our jazz band went basically blind
but when jazz band finally did play we were playing boogie down and the song called for a high G and i played a C on accident
and the worst thing was taht a science project and my car didnt run but i got it done at 1 am
