April Fools pranks?

Here's mine:
While my (rock) band was rehearsing before service, we had no vocals coming through the speakers. Our awesome sound guy runs over to check it out. He traces the line from the snake and disappears for a while as we keep on rehearsing. When the song finishes, he comes back and his face is completely livid.
Before he came to the church, we arrived early, took out the vocal mic cable, and replaced it with a custom made cable. It was an XLR to power outlet. We took his electricians tape, marked it exactly like his cables, snuck it into the bundle of cords that make that go into the snake, and made sure it was long enough for us to enjoy the comedy.
He's so close to going apesh!t because the difference in voltage would've blown the entire system apart, and we could not stop laughing because he's holding a wire that's XLR to power outlet. We told him it was a dummy and April Fools and all, so he was cool with it but during the entire service he was on his feet waiting for another prank.
