"Do you have any hectic stories about live sets you can share with us?
The very first AMODA show. This is a great story, Rich laughs. It was about 30 minutes into an hour performance of me and the computer just dies all of a sudden. I'm looking around and everyone's looking around and I'm just like I don't know and the showcase director figured out that it was Kid 606's girlfriend who'd accidentally pulled the plug. They didn't have it taped to the ground or anything, so she had just walked by and tripped yanked the whole thing out of the wall. The entire sound system was like out for five or ten minutes with five or six of us running around trying to find out what was wrong.
It was speculated that she knew what she was doing, he continues, and it wasn't an accident because there's some weird rivalry between the whole Merck crew like Cex and Machinedrum get into it all the time and they just talk shit about each other. Actually, there was an interview I did with one of the guys from AMODA and he asked me something like what do you feel is the future of the whole genre and I was like I don't necessarily see a Grammy category for the kind of stuff that I do, but if there was it would go to Kid 606, because most of those awards go to people who don't really deserve them anyway. I caught so much hell for that."

although the interview is from this year, what happened is pretty old, might want to let people know that.
