Worst Gig You've Ever Been To

[FuNkY CaPrIcOrN]

I can not think of a bad Show I have been to.They were all good.....in their own way.


But when I think about it.Smashing Pumpkins back in 1996.I went because an Ex-Thing( ) called me up and was talking about going with a Friend of hers.Her Friend looked good.So I said what the hell.

This was back in 96 on their "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" Album.When it seemed they were the biggest Band in the World at that time.Plus I will admit.There is a few Songs on that Album I like.

Anyway.I get to the Arena and start looking around.I say to myself "this Crowd is Young".And this is when I was only 21 so you know it was nothing but Kids!I saw a few Adults and they all kept saying the same thing.

First off I go to get some Beer for myself.

"We are not serving Beer tonight Sir".
"Say what!..."Why not?!".
"We were told the Crowd is too Young".

This fucking blew me away.Even as a Person old enough to Buy Beer you could not.

Ok on to the Show.I will try to make this short.They all looked liked they were falling asleep on Stage.Even during the fast Songs(I think Smashing Pumpkins has a few fast Tunes. ) they were barely getting into it.I mean the guitarist was sitting down during a few Tunes.Even the Crowd sucked!Kids did not know how to HeadBang.They all just kinda Danced around.WTF?

Well I really can not think of anything else that has to do with that Night.And no I did not get anywhere with her Friend.

I have to say, as much as I love Greenday, their last two concerts I went to were dreadful. They pulled kids out of the crowd to play for them for about half the shows.


Also, I wasn't impressed with D12 at Reading, a few years ago.

my worst gig ? hmmm this one is a toughie but ok i think it was the warmup group to david Gahan in Copenhagen last year the danish Group NU did the warmup and they were boring even their GNR cover Welcome To the Jungle sucked (the last song they played) so NU was the worst gig thing i have experienced

Thats the part everybody waited for



For me it was the opening act to Blind Guardian - Storm Hammer

They were soooo bad

Though Blind Guardian afterwards was amazing so it didnt matter much.
