Don't know if I've ever seen that bad of a concert, but yeah, Bob Dylan wasn't too exciting, especially after Santana! (It was the year they toured together.)

Worst set I've ever seen goes to Maudlin Of The Well at ProgWest 2002. Geeyawd! I don't know why that act was booked in the first place.

NICKLEBACK! ugh. School Jazz band all got free tickets to go. I hated nickleback even then, but it was free so i went, i quickly regretted it as soon as chad kroger said "everybody know what f**kin time it is? it's f**kin Beer o'clock!", it was the lamest concert I've ever been to, and makes me ashamed that nickleback are fellow canadians.

The Sweet 1980.Horrible.No Brian Connolly on lead vocals.VERY LOUD.I couldn't tell what songs they were playing most of the time.It was just noise.I've also seen Marilyn Manson and Ronnie James Dio live neither of which I enjoyed much.Again too much noise,not much music.

Really ??  I've never seen David Bowie give a bad performance... Must of been an off- night...

Worst concert... geez.. there's been so many.  I would say the Bay City Rollers.. except I went to the Warped Tour this year... and even the Bay City Rollers were better musicians than most of those bands....

i went to warped tour, it was better than i had expected though, apart from the rediculous prices in rediculous heat. I thought people like nofx and flogging molly put on a good energetic show, but a lot of the rest i didnt care for.

Out of all the bands there... only maybe one or two could actually play their instruments...

I have to say that I thought Letter Kills were one of the better ones.. even tho their singer is a bit cheesy...

But the one band that had the cutest singer and bassist (The Matches)... were just awful in talent... oh well, I guess the singer Shawn will just be able to make it off his looks...

The worst one for me would definitely be Kiss,1980. At 16 I still had a few lingering threads of Kiss-fanism so I went along to check them out,but it was the worst noisepollution I have heard to this day. I knew all the songs they played but I had a hard time identifying a single one,it was just a massive wall of distorted noise. Shameful to make anyone pay for it.

Megadeth - They were f***ing rubbish!!

Guns 'n' Roses - The worst rock band ever formed, delivered the crappest performance I had seen in a long time, back in 1988. They were so smacked up they could barely stand let alone play their crap songs.

Iron Maiden - zzzzzzzz  Dull as ditch water. All one foot on the monitor, crap sound and p!ssing rain (I blamed the weather on them too)
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Thomas Dolby on the 'Astronaughts & Heretics' tour. He came across as a second rate Elton John that night. The band were not tight, they had technical problems all evening (okay maybe not their fault but the crew should have delt with it and they didn't).

THE most lacklustre version of 'Hyperactive' I have ever heard.

The worst show i saw was Loudon Wainwright III back in the early 80's. He came on stage and as he started to sing someone heckled him in the front row, Loudon threw a massive wobbly and stormed off the stage in a huff!  Everyone just sat there amazed.   and he didnt come back either.

I checked 3Fates photos and I have never even heard of any of these bands but it's definitely bad news when you can tell they're awful just from by the way they look. Oh,the crimes perpetrated in the name of music. Elvis has a lot to answer for.
