Rock and Roll Stories
My personal Spinal Tap moment came when we got locked into the Festival Hall in London by accident. We ended up wandering the maze of backstage corridors carrying a three foot high piece of cheese looking for the one door that would lead us to salvation.
What goes on tour may stay on tour, but B3ta doesn't count. Tell us everything.

A few years ago I used to work at a mixing desk manufacturer in Cornwall
Just as the 'Xone 6:2' range had come out. I was constructor and Tom was the tester, and then they went out the door.
Later on I saw Eminem on TV doing 'Lose Yourself' live / pre recorded and his mixman appeared to be using a good ol' Xone 6:2 and I thought- wow, my work is making Eminem sound good! (preens)
This is just as well, as previously I'd moved up to final testing GL4000s (48 channel monsters) and one comes back from the hire company in a rush- 'we must get it fixed immediately and back out to the tour or they'll have to cancel some dates'...diligently I got to work and got it fixed AS WELL as my daily quota of work. What a star, I thought to myself. Who's the desk for?
Daniel O'fucking Donnell.
I should have done the world a favour and blown it up instead. Grrrr.
