Odd that Johnny Cash kicking out the lights at The Grand Ole Opry doesn't get mentioned.

George Lynch had his tight pants blow-out once on stage and had to have a roady Duct-tape them on enough to finish the show.

Ozzy was not really crazy just plain bloody stupid if you ask


Deep Purple - Come Hell Or High Water [1994]
This was the end of Deep Purple as we know
Blackmore's issues with the presence of a cameraman on his side of the stage at the start of the Birmingham concert prompted the guitarist to return to his dressing room until the cameraman was removed. This leads to a longer than usual 'guitar-free' intro into 'Highway Star' and several truncated guitar solo spots through the show. The rest of the band's dissatisfaction with the behavior of their soon to be departed guitarist is evident in their interviews on the DVD.

Ritchie threw the water at the camerman because the TV crew agreed to no cameramen on stage whilst the band were playing, but 1 of them went on stage and tried to hide behind Gillan, which is why Ritchie threw the water at him. If looks could kill Ritchie is not happy about the cameraman being on stage with him.
Also at 5.00, Ritchie was pointng to the security guys to get the cameraman off the stage..
The 1 thing that isn't seen, is straight after this song finished, Ritchie went backstage, grabbed a bottle of beer and poured it over the same cameraman's head

Blackmore's roadie Rob Fodder decided to put his side of events:
I went to tell Ritchie that the intro tape was playing and that he had a couple of minutes, and he told me to get the cameras offstage. I went back onstage and told a cameraman who was between Roger and Jon that he'd better move offstage. He then proceeded to break down his camera and move off. I went back to get Ritchie and we walked to the stage. When we got there, we saw that the cameraman is hadn't left at all. Ritchie calmly turned around and walked back to the dressing room. I ran back onstage and told the cameraman again that if he didn't get off, he'd be risking the show (in not very friendly terms). Again I went to the dressing room to let Ritchie know that there weren't any cameras on stage.
By this time the band were well into "Highway Star". Ritchie walked out on stage and joined the band. Then he noticed that the cameraman had just moved in into the shadows behind Jon, he picked up the water by the keyboard and threw it at the camera, not Gillan, not Jon, or even the band members wives, but definitely at the camera. Not many people know that in between "Highway Star" and "Black Night", Ritchie ran behind the amps with a beer and soaked the cameraman again as he was wiping his equipment.

ps During the laser intro is the dragon killing the snake and is this a message to David Coverdale
