4 that stick out for me

Unique (Supporting The Stranglers)

Some sh*tty local band who reformed 'due to popular demand' for this once in a lifetime opportunity of supporting a has been punk band.Take 2 guys in Tina Turner wigs behind a couple of synths , one fat bald guy in a smock with white face paint that made him look like the child catcher in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang playing the most 80s sounding music you`ve ever heard.They played for half an hour , it felt like 3 hours.The only song I remeraber was called something like 'Little Man' that seemed to be about his penis.

Blind Melon (Supporting Guns n Roses)

5 planks of wood takes to the stage for half an hour
Nobody notices


Now It`s Overhead (Supporting REM)

Some sh*tty Saddle Creek band who`s only reason for being there seemed to be because they were from Stipes hometown.45 minutes spent listening to a band attempting to get into the Guinness book of recorRAB under ' the most dullest indiest cliched crap band in the world' entry

Hard Fi (Supporting Graham Coxon)

Never before have I seen a band get so little attention from a crowd.The only song that got any sort of reaction was 'Living For The Weekend'. I`m guessing it`s because their lead singer said 'This is our last one for tonight' before it was played.
 
cardiff arena, nowhere special, wasn't as great as i'd hoped, my mate fainted and i lost my shoe and i didn't have any money for drugs.
 
Metallica opening up for Aerosmith... i went to the concert and was far to young to remeraber alot of it.. but my parents said they were a ****ty live act..
 
yea i know sucks when you hear it hey.. but it could have just been becaue once there gone and aerosmith are playing its really hard to compare.. and or they really did super suck that one time live.. either way yea this was in kitchener, ONT.. many years ago..
 
bah... too many to count!! last REALLY bad one was Electric Wizard who opened for Mogwai... First off, they were metal. Now, that's not my kind of thing i admit... but they followed every cliche in the book (most notably only have one song (that they replayed 7 different ways), 4 chorRAB and no talent.

Truely dismal band...
 
we got to that point where your not in the front but your jammed right in, the guy infront of us was built like a cube so we decided to try and make frienRAB in the hope if something did kick off we'd be alright, he beat up some big dude behind me but my mate still fainted from the heat. all in all was still great though.
 
Since us moRAB are supposed to be bumping old threaRAB that can actually lead to some discussion i'm going to bump this one.

Away you go.........

I'll also add The View supporting Primal Scream for this.

Couldn't understand a bloody word the singer was saying & every single song sounded the same.
