Today, I performed in a rendition of Jesus Christ Superstar at my school. When it came time for my big solo, a whopping two lines, I forgot the words, making for an awkward eight seconds of silence. FML

Hi, OP here! We had two flawless performances before this one, and several rehearsals before that. So no, I was not unprepared in the least. I think the problem came from the lack of sleep I had before this specific performance, because; with my luck, I happened to catch a cold the night before. Thanks for the positive comments, I feel like posting this has helped me overcome the embarrassment by giving me the opportunity to laugh at my own plight! :)

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Funny how nobody seems to know that Jesus Christ Superstar is actually a musical. Like Cats or Starlight express.

One word: improvisation

You should've acted as if it were a part of your solo. The audience probably wouldn't have known

Although I have no idea how you could forget the words to JCS as it's so incredibly amazing, I agree that would be very annoying and embarrassing. I feel ya.
