Hi Chris,
What is the funniest thing to go wrong at a gig and have there ever been any major catastrophies performance wise at any gigs?
Cheers,
Spoffy
Dear Spoffy
it’s never funny when things go wrong, we are true professionals hrrumph… However it’s usually the keyboards that go down. Barso missed a flight once and we had to go on without him, then my effects unit went all wrong. We were doing Ok – ish and then I noticed the next song was NW5..er a bit hard without Mike. Then he arrived. Hooray!

Why was it such a bad gig for you Jim? (if you don’t mind me asking), I had a great time!

I went to this gig—probably the worst madness gig I have ever been to (been to around 30)…did not put me off though….still the best Live band ever.
‘DID YOU HAVE A NICE HOLIDAY MIKE??’….that was funny
That must have been at Sandown, we all sang ‘Had a nice holiday’ to Mike when he finally arrived!
