Well, I guess I'm the only one who has been in a band. So, here's some more from me.
I played rhythm guitar in another band in college, and the bass player and keyboard player had an ongoing fued over tuning. Usually, the keyboard player would secretly loosen or tighten one of the bassists tuning pegs during breaks, and we would start our sets with the bassist way out of tune. Of course, his only option was to re-tune while still somehow holding the song together amidst our laughter. Once, the keyboard player simply pretended to knock his bass out of tune (but didn't), and got the rest of us to start the first song of the next set in a different key, which made the bassist only think he was out of tune. Then, on the second song (after the bassist had re-tuned to all of us), we'd suddenly jump back down into the correct key and he'd be out of tune all over again.
Sometimes, the audience has no clue as to how much fun you're having onstage.
