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. ------------- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhuxaD8NzaY" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhuxaD8NzaY |

| 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.

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... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v20/Pebble/Misc/Warped/P1010017.jpg - http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v20/Pebble/Misc/Warped/P10 10017.jpg 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... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v20/Pebble/Misc/Warped/P1010028.jpg - http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v20/Pebble/Misc/Warped/P10 10028.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v20/Pebble/Misc/Warped/P1010025.jpg - http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v20/Pebble/Misc/Warped/P10 10025.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v20/Pebble/Misc/Warped/P1010048.jpg - http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v20/Pebble/Misc/Warped/P10 10048.jpg ------------- THIS IS ELP

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. ------------- Odi profanum vulgus et arceo. |

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 ------------- 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.  ------------- Don't hate me I'm not special like you |

You're right,Velvet. Elvis is beyond our reach,and besides,no matter what we might have wanted to do to him,it couldn't have been worse than what he did to himself. And the poll of what is the best poll seems like a good idea. Worth thinking about. ------------- Odi profanum vulgus et arceo. |

Focus at Loughborough University (c 1974) - the band were tired and that awefully boring drum solo had me walk out. Level 42: Greatest Hits tour 2002 at Leicester DeMontford Hall. The support Steve Lawson was masterful but on for 20 minutes only. Level 42 were clearly great musicians, but the music was tired and repetitive. Left after 20 minutes and spent the next hour talking with Steve Lawson, who was trying to flog his CDs front of house.
To counter the great disappointments: the most memorable gigs: Arthur Lee & Love The Forever Changes tour 2002 Leicester DeMontFord Hall
McLaughlin/Bruce/Cobham/Sancious Rainbow 1979(?) - long had this wish that the first three named here would get together, and 4 years later it happened. Only occasion I paid ticket tout prices to get in, and it was a dream show - seeing John McLaughlin play some classic Clapton was an eye-opener. Mind you the post-punk review in Melody Maker the following Friday made me very angry.
Beck Bogert & Appice/Flash at Loughborough University (1974?). Apparently we were lucky, BBA by reput toured the world in a drunken stupor, but not that night. And Pete Banks was on brilliant form too with Flash , out-windmilling Townshend and playing 3 times as many chords at the same time.
Jeff Beck/Rod Stewart/Nicky Hopkins/Rod Wood: Toby Jug Tolworth (probably 1969). Because of ill health Nicky Hopkins rarely toured so this was a rarity - and they did music from the Truth album.

i've always loved the shows i've been to but there were a few crap acts at V 2004. tho the festival as a whole was incredible. I saw kasabien who seemed a bit out of it and may have had sound probs but they were crap live, their studio stuff aint bad tho. All american rejects were prolly the worst on the bill, all the singer ever said was "turn that sh*t up" inbetween every song and he swore in every sentance he said cos he's hardocore and EXTREME! lol Dashboard confessional opened with one bloke playing this amazing acoustic song, but then the rest of his band joined and they played sh*tty stuff. the only prog act i've seen was the australian pink floyd show. they were amazing. but i only got bored when they played stuff from the division bell and AMLOR cos i hate that era floyd. ------------- The Worthless Recluse

Ooooh...this one is easy.
Moody Blues on their Long Distance Voyager tour (1980-81?). For some strange reason, the band thought it would give their music a shot in the arm if they played everything really, really fast. Their harmonies were way off too. Imagine "I'm Just A Singer In A Rock and Roll Band" played in double time and off key. Also, poor Patrick Moraz looked so out of place. Such a great keyboard player playing second fiddle, trying to look interested while playing Mike Pinder's keyboard parts. Pierre |

At the risk of repeating myself, Yes, NEC Birmingham, the 90125 tour. I was but a lad of about 16yrs, and Yes had been my favourite band for 4 yrs. A few years before I had swapped a ticket to see Blizzard Of Oz for one to see Jon Anderson on the Song of Seven tour which was cancelled due to lack of interest(!!). I had nearly managed to get tickets for the Drama tour but the band fell apart. Finally getting to see them play was to be the experience of a lifetime, or so I thought! I nearly cried on my way home. That night I made an effigy of Trevor Rabin and subjected it to much inhumane torture Definately my worst gig ever, it was a few years before I could play any Yes album. Black Sabbath with Ian Gillan and Bev Bevan, Reading '83, was more entertaining, having, al-be-it unintentionally, comic value. Something Yes lacked in spades.

Focus for me too, I think it must have been the same tour as Dick saw them on. They were pretty much at the peak of their fame then. They showed up the Kelvin Hall in Glasgow two hours late, and were left out in the rain till their kit was set up. Then we could only see three of them on stage, the fourth being hiden by a stack of speakers. They proceeded to race through their set as quick as they could, it was dreadful. Five of us who went together, left together well before the end. |

Geez I saw the Australian Pink Floyd twice in England last year.. once at the Royal Albert Hall... and they played the entire DSOTM album.... I would have rather seen them do a lot more AMLOR and TDB.. cause thats more of my favorite Floyd.. that and Animals... and I would of been happy... as it was, it depressed me and I cried most the way thru it.... ------------- THIS IS ELP

Without a doubt, the worst gig I've ever been to was Rainbow in '81(?) with Joe Lynn Turner on vocals - appalling sound, Roger Glover on bass guitar really not wanting to be there & Ritchie Blackmore pretty much the same - the whole experience really screamed "we're just going through the motions, folks - just give us your money & we'll play 'smoke on the water' as an encore"............ I shudder even now, as I remember a special (fake) Marshall amp being wheeled on stage just after Blackmore unacountably changed guitar mid-solo - yes.... it was time for Ritchie Blackmore to trash a guitar for the delectation of the masses - and a thousand sheep cheered  !!
We retired to the bar, sat on the floor, and Tommy Vance walked past & knocked my pint over!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! Mind you, Rose Tattoo were good in support

I was at that gig too and you're right it was a bunch of toss! If I remember correctly, the stage was set up with a load of ramps and what seemed like a gym climbing frame at the back which Klaus and the boys sort of hung off at the start of the show looking all mysterious, wreathed in dry ice. Even then I thought it looked a bit wierd ------------- I must remind the right honourable gentleman that a monologue is not a decision. - Clement Atlee, on Winston Churchill |

Just remember again stinker - but it was more the venue than the band.
Pink Fairies (as a trio) at Kingston Swimming Baths autumn 1970? Amazingly the swimming pool was boarded over, however, the echo off the ceramic walls and the space between the pool water and floor the audience stood on, made the gig an unbearable noise rather than early heavy rock - it was the loudest show I had heard up to that time too. Another one I left early (more probably the first of many concerts!!). This was a shame because I had seen the Pink Fairies at Royal Holloway College summer ball earlier that year. [I had the privilege to talk to the British opera singer Dame Felicity Lott a few years ago (who specalises in 17th and 18th century opera) , and oddly she said she was at that gig too..................]. The Fairies were a 5 piece then (two leads and two drummers I think including the legendary Twink), the volume was notched down and Iwatched astonished at their playing of Teenage Rebel and Uncle Harry's Last Freak Out - got their LP Never Never Land the following weekend with the transparent sleeve, on the strength of that show. But how a band can change in 6 months.

1) Axel Roses dreadful screechy voice. It got worse and worse as the years rolled by, until eventually he strutted out on stage singing with Elton John, at some charity concert, and I actually preffered Elton Johns voice in the duet, and I cant stand Elton John! G'n'R have just rubbed me up the wrong way for years. 2) Sh!t songs. There were a few which showed promise on 'Appetite..' after that that they seemed to slip into this predictable crotch grabbing Yank rock mould, IMO. They could never keep up with true pros like Aerosmith. They were a poor mans 'classic' rock band. At the performance I saw them at Axel was abusive to the crowd, calling us 'Engish f***ers' and asking the crowd for fights etc. They were bad musicians at that point, and severly over rated. ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

I'm told American folk and blues guitarist/vocalist Kelly Joe Phelps got heckled earlier this year at Leicester's Phoenix Arts Centre, by a fan who turned up to see somebody else (KJP stood in at the last moment) and was really miffed with Phelps as the stand-in. To Phelps' credit he stood his ground when called an 'inferior musician', and played in the response to the heckling. However, Phelps was definitely affected and it wasn't his best performance for the rest of an appreciative audience.
Did you see Room 101 last night, and the stories about hecklers and put downs. Apparently an American stand up comedian did Birmingham (the English one), thinking that the English audience would be polite as an American one (apparently US club bouncers are told to turf out hecklers so a comedian can finish his/her act???). This comedian went down badly and so got heckled. His put down was: "Hey be quiet or you'll taken outside and killed". Hecklerin response : "Mate, Oi'll take me chances, because you're still shet!" |

Slash is a blues based heavy rock guitarist,that's all he knows,he can't pick up a classical guitar and play Bach like Steve Hackett can or play flamenco the way Mike Oldfield can. Much like Clapton,Slash is far too limited to be called an amazing guitarist,I'm afraid. It takes a bit more to earn that accolade. ------------- Odi profanum vulgus et arceo. |

I saw April Wine backed by Angelwitch in the early eighties in Manchester. Angelwitch were appalling! At one point the bassist threw his bass in the air but couldnt catch it-there was blood everywhere April Wine were very average but the Drum Solo sticks out as a moment of pyrotechnic awfulness. I also remember Van Halen on their first tour of the UK after their triumphant support slot for Black Sabbath. They played for 70 mins. Just over an hour as the Headline Act!!!That hour included 2 drum solos and two bass solos!

The people behind them couldn't see nothing and started screeming and throwing stuff to make them sit.Unfortunetaly a beer can(yes the good ol times) hit Lou R., who took it quiet personal and left the stage after insulting the audience. The stage manager must have got on his knees begging him to get back and good old Lou was back after 15 minutes playing for another half an hour with the back to the audience before leaving for good. |

Motorhead in a school gym in Co Meath in 1981 - cobblers! David Bowie - Slane Castle on the Never Lay Me Down tour 1987 - double cobblers! And i Love Bowie Bryan Adams - Wembley Stadium 1996 - oh my God, so cabaret. But I was going on holiday with mates and one of them wanted to go to this travesty of music the night before we flew. I spent the whole gig kicking a coke can round, pretending I was playing an FA Cup Final on the hallowed turf. The Smiths - SFX Dublin 1984. I loved their first few singles went to see them and aside from bits of Johnny Marr's guitar playing they were crap - and they only played for about 45 minutes. But.... wait for it .... wait for it
Howard Jones - Dublin 1983/4/5? - free tickets, my then girlfriend wanted to go, some baldy blok hopped around the stage wrapped in chains while Howard with his 'mad hair' blithered away with his sub-early depeche mode synth pop. Uttery, utterly hideous.

Woowee!!!! I missed this!! Pixie I was joking. I shouldn't have to point that out. You have some serious (in both senses of the word) issues to deal with! Being thoughtful and sensible and trying to be intellectual has got you how much happiness? You are entitled to form any opinion you like about me (I dont know you-you dont know me). You've decided that I am rude and insensitive-fair enough I have no quibble or problem with that.For my part I'd like to say that you are immature and over-sensitive.In light of some of your earlier posts, which I had thought were interesting, I now realise that your head is too far up your back-passage! You talk about me not having respect for other people's intelligence-very self-effacing that! Everyone here knows I am a dickhead-all you've done is prove that you are too! Get a freakin' life, come back, fight your corner and try and learn something other than parroting the rubbish espoused by Von Daniken and his ilk. It is very difficult for me to begin to even vaguely comprehend what would make you post something like that! You might say that's the exact problem -my lack of sensitivity to others, but that is too simple and gets you off too lightly.Never thought to PM me did you, which shows how insensitive you are. Think about that one.
