Split my freakin' pants fail!!!

So I was playing The Bitter End in NYC with 13th Alibi and bent over to adjust a knob on my pedal board when I hear 'RIIIIIIIP!!!!' My pants split right down the side from upper hip close to the knee. Thankfully I wear some sweet boxers. Unfortunately, I think I blinded some of the ladies in the front row. Never dull!!!!

Been there on the Sound side of the coin. So at least I wasn't up on stage in front of hundreds of people for four hours. Still... not fun, particularly since my jeans split at the crotch. I really need to get better jeans.

At least your underwear was on. I was pants on stage once and my boxers came with it. Very embarrassing.

....that should be a lesson learned on why you should not wear your sisters pants while trying to pull off the emo look.
