An Adele show over the weekend in Birmingham, Ala. turned into an impromptu sing-along after the packed arena’s sound system went out. As she was heading into the second chorus of “All I Ask,” Adele’s mic cut out, as did all of the musical accompaniment. Fortunately for Adele, her fans knew all the words.
You can check out the audio blackout, which starts at around 2:30 here:
Adele suffered similar audio setbacks when performing “All I Ask” at the Grammy Awards in February, after the piano mics fell onto the piano strings, creating a bizarre guitar sound. The singer also appeared not to be wearing an earpiece at the time and CBS later confirmed that there was a five-to-eight second technical issue during the performance.
Which begs the question, when and where will Adele’s “All I Ask” curse strike again?
