Paul McCartney blows out the PA at the Apollo Theatre




They are covering Marvin Gaye's "Hitch Hike" 

PA has huge feed back at 1:57 ... They stop the song ..... Start the song back up ... Only monitors have vox ... Stop again ..... Then start back up with full recovery.  http://youtu.be/qF_qa9an5mc


Even the rock gods have occasional issues. 

The dance girls in the back are something to look at ...watch the whole thing

    That's nothing...  I was FOH eng at a Bad Manners gig, they played started a cover of "Black Night" and took out the power in the entire venue.

    It really was a black night,  for about 15 seconds anyway, untill the breakers cut back in.
