SNL

Fear, the Los Angeles punk was invited to be Saturday Night Live's musical guest during one of their 1981 shows. The shows ratings were low that year so comedian John Belushi pulled some strings and convinced the producers to allow it. However, half way into song #3, the producers apparently collectively shit their pants, thinking a riot was going to break out. Watch until the end where it cuts out. Listen for the fake applause.
