I know a lot of us have played in bands before, which means a lot of us have seen some pretty funny stuff happen. How about some good band anecdotes (the kind of goofy shit that can ONLY happen in bands)?

I played bass in a band once where the drummer and the lead guitar player absolutely HATED each other. The guitar player was pretty big and always picked on the smaller drummer, who usually had no recourse but to take the abuse and deal with it. One night, we were playing at a dance and the drummer's hand cramped up on him during a song right at about the end of the guitar player's "hot" solo. Just as the guitar player turned around, the drummer lost his grip on one of his drumsticks and it sailed out and NAILED the guitar player right in the face. Although we all knew his hand had really cramped up, the guitar player was convinced he threw that stick on purpose, and he never gave him any more shit after that.
