Bombs and Mishaps: Doug Pound's Touring Tales
DJ Doug Pound shares his experience of bombing at a festival in New Zealand. Despite his friend's hype about the festival, the crowd was uninterested and hostile. Doug's act as a DJ didn't resonate with the festival-goers, and he faced a heckling crowd, throwing objects and showing their dissatisfaction. Despite the challenging situation, he powered through and eventually played a few songs to a slightly more receptive audience. This experience taught him the importance of adapting to different environments and realizing that not every venue is suitable for comedy or DJ performances.
