What is your craziest performance story that you witnessed live. I'll start.
1988 Moscow Circus is touring the US for the first time in ten years. My father and I went. The teeter board act was up and the main man was amazing. Flying through the air and landing on the shoulders of a guy standing on the shoulders of another guy. Then the chair on a long pole balanced on a guys shoulders. Then the main flier comes out on stilts. They place a Wagon about four feet tall behind him. Two guys jump on the board and he flies up and sticks it right on the wagon. Then he comes bouncing out on a single stilt about five feet tall with both legs strapped to it. He hops on the board and two fellas jump on it. He flips backwards and as he lands on the wagon the stilt shatters. He falls all the way to the ground (9 feet from his feet) and lands on his right shoulder. The entire audience goes hush. I can't hear him but from the look on his face he is obviously screaming. Two guys throw him on the wagon and wheel him off as the next act starts as if it never happened. Never going to forget it. I saw it live. |

Sorry I have nothing LIVE to add, but for a suggestion.... ask anyone if they have ever been to a G.G. Allin performance.

I've seen video of GG. Pretty intense.

One of the most amazing things I have ever seen was not a mistake or disaster, it was just a normal performance by Pablo Noel. He was the greatest cat act I have ever seen in a circus. A thrilling combination of terrifying, funny and joyous. Just amazing.
