Biggest lighting disaster you've had.

[bumclouds]

I'm new to nightclub lighting and so far I haven't had any huge major disasters.

I've had a few lighting disasters, but so far not while our club is open to the public. (how long will it be before this happens?)

Does anyone have any funny stories they can share with us about lighting screwups during important shows/dj sets/gigs/etc?

Last newyears eve i had a gig and my dmx interface died on me in the afternoon when i was setting up the lights.
Luckily i knew someone who rents out lightning equipment and he was able to provide me with an ancient martin dmx interface and software so i could use the lights that evening.
