had that happen before at a gig, was great,

live went crashed..

thankfull all my mates got up and starting laughing and clapping at me, shouting random Mac shortcuts and i guess lightening the mood of the people who didnt really know what was going on..

they then took to dancing telling me how good that last tune was, which was the old mac start up sound..

i guess people expect this.

i mean guitars can lose strings, blow amps, stuff can fail all the time.. it just a lil more noticable when you dont ahve 3 people to cover you
Anything at my disposal..

Card Tricks or start yelling about how the bar won't get you a beer and you're out of there.
Ableton’s engineers are hard
at work developing code that will allow our software to predict the future, but we don’t
anticipate having this available until at least the next major release.

You ought to have back up. If you've got no vinyl and no CDs, then you've already made your first mistake.

I would have a set similar to what I was intending to play on a CD or Ipod and bus it into a channel on the mixer so I could bring it in at anytime.

Make sure you computer is clean!!! Check you processes to make sure some ram-eater isn't running in the background. And stop looking at all that porn, the sites are full of trojans, or so I've been told!
