Noticing my mistake, i quickly tired to undo waht i had done,while continue singing. And in doing so i stepped on my cable. Well it would just been an unplugged-myself situation, but since i have a history of doing that, my cable it ducted taped to my bass.

When i stepped on my cable, it pulled the bass, along with me down to the floor. With the me being right by the edge, i fell the stage, an end of the strapp came off, causing the bass to swing and hit an audience member.

At the end of all this, my bass was out of tune and my back wasnt in tune so i just ended up playing secong guitar (using my guitarist's back up)

Alll in all, it wasnt that bad, it was prettuy funny (got a big laugh from the crowd. One of my friends got it on video so even better that i get to see what happending.

Moral of the story: DON'T CHEW WITH YOUR MOUTH OPEN! lol
