Most embarrassing moment: I jumped off an 8-foot. speaker during a show. When I came down, my knees buckled and I fell, rolled one time and then got up to my feet all while still playing the guitar. The fall wasn't planned but I made it look like it was. It was still a little embarrassing, 'cause I knew it wasn't.
