Every band has the occasional clunker of a show - a gig where the audience was downright hostile, the playing was terrible or the energy just wasn't there. But it takes a truly awful set of circumstances for a gig to go from "bad" to "outright disaster." And this week we're joined by someone who knows a thing or two about the subject.
Our guest is author and journalist Jon Niccum of WorstGig.com. He's documented countless tales of misery from the road from some of the biggest names in music. Listen as he shares these stories and relives his own personal worst gig moment.
