Most unusual gig?

OK fellows massives - whats the most unusual gig you've ever been to, i.e: setting, something happened on/off stage, strange guest spot, etc... you get the idea.

Mine was seeing pet shop boys performing Battleship Potempkin at Swan Hunter shipyard on Newcastle Tyne river a few years ago. This was free tickets gig, we were stood in a dry dock with huge gates stopping the water pouring in, masive moodily lit cranes, huge half built boats, 100+ years of shipbuilding history surrounding us, the shipyard hooter starting the whole thing off, russian b/w propaganda film and topped off with pop/art pet shop boys!

I still think about it now, as it all felt like some of orwellian dream i had, and eating burgers whilst stood in a dry dock was as surreal as its ever got for me - in a word 'unforgettable'

whats stuck in your minds the most then?

Worst album you've ever bought - and still have?

Apologies if this has been asked before (i may have missed it), but what's the worst album you've wasted good wonga on or bought on recommendation, and is it still in the collection despite it's unloved status? Mine is as follows:

Terence Trent Darby - Neither Fish Nor Flesh. Bought after liking the debut album (which still is a classic 80's listen) but my god is this one a right stinker, and now still resides in my collection, to remind me and the rest of the other albums surrounding it that talent steals, genius is often locked up for being downright loop-de-fookin' loop!

Whats yours fellow massives?

Masterchef X-rated?

Why is Masterchef on after 9pm now, does it have scenes of sex, violence and may contain sexual swear words? I'm a bit confused, does this mean Old Baldy-coot Greg finally gets to say "Cooking doesn't get any f#*king tougher than this... you bast#rd"?

Is the BBC worried that a contestant will eff 'n jeff if they burn the souffle?
