yeah, by that point megadeth weren't megadeth anymore. it was the dave mustaine show and that chap ain't so nice to watch

the two worst shows I went to where because i got free tickets through work and I wanted to see the support band Kiosk.

The first one was kiosk, Love of Diagrams and Electralane.

Kiosk ruled, Love of Diagrams were boring post-joy division indie rock that I think a year later was on the OC soundtrack.

Electralane were boring, me and friends were pretty wasted and were hardcore dancing which really pissed off the prissy indie kids. We actually got a meantion in a Sydney street press for making the gig more interesting.

The next one was kiosk, the scare and Plot to Blow Up the Effiel Tower.

Kiosk ruled, I fell asleep during the Scare and Musically PTBUTET were OK but they were the most annoying fuckers i've ever had to look at. The singer thought he was really sexual and kept on dripping spit.

Top 3 worst shows

3..Wolf Eyes opening for Sonic Youth was horrible. I wanted to leave but I didn't want to lose my spot.

2. I went to see a Missing 23rd (who I went for) show with Ill Repute opening up. Missing 23rd made a no show and everybody was pissed. People were getting super violent and skinheads were starting fights. It sucked.

1. I went to a skate shop party about 3 years ago and I saw the two bands that took local crappy bands to a new low. The first was The Carnies. They would play shitty metalcore with vocals like Cheech when he puts his mouth over the mic. The second band was Bedpan. A shitty skater punk band with catchy lyrics like "Bomb the middle east." The sad thing was that people loved it. I lost a lot of respect for that town and never took anybody from there seriously ever again.

Due to small number of shows I've seen, there's not much to tell.

Samara Lubelski played solo gig here late last year and it was really big letdown for me. It seemed like she played the same song ten times and didn't seem to be into it herself either.

Also this band Tuvalu, which I guess have some good reputation in alt. circles here, were appalling. They tried to rip off mars volta, but unfortunately I'm not into mars volta at all, and they were even worse.
Last wednesday my friends´ band was supporting a band called wiidakko, who were shite, but luckily my friends rocked that night.

There's some mediocre acts I've seen alot too, but they're not really worth mentioning.

last november, i went to a show that was the single most horrible show ever and the single most awesome show ever. the first three bands were shitty metal shit (the biggest of them was Devildriver (who played for an hour and sucked the entire time)). after 2.5 hours of shitty metal shit, i witnessed the most amazing show of my life: GWAR. they fucking ruled. gallons of fake blood, celebrity effegies, giant crack-addicted T-Rexes; it was awesome.

and the next night i saw Henry Rollins do spoken word. pretty damn awesome.

I went to a country concert with my mother once. It was horrible, listening to some guy whine about his life, then praise love, then whine some more.
I don't remember his name though.

I've seen some shitty opening bands, but I can't recall a show that sucked all the way through. I'm pretty selective about what shows I go to.

A standout shitty band was Andromeda Strain who opened for Fugazi in 93. That band had that riot grrl Jessica Hopper in it and a Farfisa organ that was blasting loud killing your ears whenever it hit high notes. When they said it was their last song, the crowd clapped so loud.

There's a local band called Brice that opened for someone cool that I don't recall that is terrible. Quirky acoustic/electric white boy rappin' 311 sugar ray sounding motherfuckers.

Some bands are just so boring I don't remember seeing them at all.

Worst show I've ever been to would have to be Tool a few years back. I'm not much of a Tool fan, I went with a Tool obsessed friend of mine cause he didn't really want to go alone. I paid $45 dollars for the ticket and that's exactly how many minutes they played for. Biggest fucking rip-off ever! If anyone ever goes to see them live, keep in mind that you're not actually paying to see the band play. You're paying to see a huge stage, gigantic, elaborate backdrops, laser lights, jumbo screens that play lame claymation movies, wires that hang from the ceiling to resemble lightning, and large, inflatable atoms that float above giant fans. They sounded good live, but c'mon! Yeah, thanks Tool... can I have my $45 back? The only thing I was pleased with was seeing Tomahawk, cause Mike Patton went nuts on stage and made fun of all these obnoxious Tool fans that kept booing him... that was awesome.

A band called Mandarin Movie last Saturday (opening for Mogwai). 70 minutes of painfully bad let's-play-we're-so-avantgurarde free jazz. oh dear, now this was bad.

Yeah, those idiots ruined it for me (that chick screaming her lungs out was the worst) and they had no respect for the opening bands either. Stupid Obnoxious tweens. But I didn't think Jason Collett was all that bad

Until December / Gene Loves Jezebel - The Ritz 1987
That was easily one of the most godawful pairings ever. I was dragged there by my gothy friends just so they could swoon over the boys in makeup.

You know who else sucked in concert? New Order. I should have known that it would have been one of the most boring shows on the planet...those dorks stood behind their banks of keyboards the entire show...and that was it. Some performance. I could have listened to a studio album. fucking programmers.

That show was at the Pier in NY around 1988.

I've been to a lot of really bad shows.

The worst was probably Dragon Force.

We go to Montreal with people going to the show, but make it as clear as we possibly can that we are not fucking going into the show. We just wanted to walk around Montreal and take pictures But no, we were literally forced into the show and forced to watch a sea of Slipknot shirted people go nuts for a lame ass band.
