Re: My worst looping gig...

["Tilmann Dehnhard" <tilmann@dehnhard.com>]

oh MAN, you remind me of an embarassing stage experience i had...
i played a duo with a drummer, he had looped something and triggered it by 
hitting a midi pad.
i played chords with the sax through voice live.
suddenly hell broke loose and the joint shook from another band playing. 
we 
stopped playing and listened:
to ourselves a few minutes ago! i must have hit the repeater's record 
button 
accidentally at the beginning of the song.
so the repeater had recorded until it was full (some minutes) and started 
playback on it's own.
