    Can't think of one imparticular but it's always embarrasing when you sneeze and have snot running out of your nose. You're trying to wipe it with your arm but you're afraid to drop a beat. So there you are trying to play with one hand and wipe your nose, all the while trying to do it inconspicuously (which is impossible I might add). LOL

    My brother was playing drums one night while I was taking rhythm guitar at this local dive in Richmond. During this ZZ Top song he dropped his one stick (no backup!). So I actually had to walk over in front of the kit to pick up his stick and give it to him. Oh, did I forget to mention that we were only a 3-piece band and two of us stop playing at the time? What made it hysterical was that he had to get my attention to tell me to pick up the rolling drumstick. So for a couple bars, the drums kind of got "real basic", and then I looked over and he was giving me the eye to get the stick. LOL.

    It's funny now that we both look back on it. Good times!

    Okay...one for me. I was doing a shuffle one time and then lost beat and then started into straight time. It would have been fine, but it was at church on a hymn. That was pretty funny. I was turning it into the Rolling Stones - Midnight Rambler. There have been times when I was supposed to start in 3/4 and ended up in 4/4 for some reason. It's always fun when everyone looks at you and wants to know what's going on. I just look back at them and give them the look that says, "Hey, I'm just the drummer."

    I was playing in a parade in a marching band...dropped a stick...it rolled down a storm drain. We had extras in the line, but it took me 1/2 a block to get it!

    Last year, the drumstick flew out of my hand and caught the singer in the head. That was pretty embarrasing.

    Nicko McBrain...the drummer for Iron Maiden used to end his solo by bouncing the sick off his floor tom into the audience. By the time that twirling piece of wood hit the crowd, the lights had gone out. Once it landed in a girl's eye socket. That was one hell of a lawsuit! I'll bet he was a little embarassed... (especially as he was writing a check for $1,000,000.00 !) Ouch!

    Once i lost 2 sticks in a row and only had 1 that i could grab, so i had to pick one up off the ground. And in that same song our lead guitarist broke a string.

    let a stick fly in a tv studio that almost hit some paraplegic insperational speaker who despite being paraplegic gets around in a sidecart in a bikey gang.
    luckily he was a nice guy and it was off air.

    ok guys, check it, so i was on stage with my fellow members and we were playing bat country by avenged sevenfold. I started to twirel my sticks and I was going way to fast and the stick nailed me in the jugular and i couldn't breath for like 10 seconds. Thats some embarrasing shananagans.
