Kiss at Belfast King's Hall. Fucking awful. Like a bad pub band.
Gary Moore was also shite, much to my surprise.
Two support bands that were cack: Dokken opening for AC/DC at Wembley Arena and Girlschool for the Scorpions at Hammersmith Odeon.

I went to see Nick Cave and as a support band there was MERCURY REV- utter crap!!!
Also- @ Reading 2003 I saw Good Charlotte- now that's what I call a really bad gig!!!

Milton Keynes 1982, crap sound, drizzling rain, 8 hours listening to crap before Queen came on, and the booze ran out.
The Strokes
Feb 2002 in Cologne
25€ for a 35 min set.
They came on stage, drunk, played all the songs off the album, which aren't long, and went.
No talking to the audience (I was wondering if they even realized there was one), no encore... nothing!
I haven't spent a cent on the Strokes ever since and I definitely won't ever again!
I don't know if they think this behaviour is cool or if they want to keep a dirty rock and roll image or what... but it's certainly not cool at all!
A saturday evening at home is more exciting than The Strokes live.

I saw Fleetwood Mac in 2002 and they were terrible. I only went because my friend is obsessed and she had an extra ticket. I liked about 2 songs, but overall it was lame and tiring. I fell asleep for about 10 minutes...And the tickets were 40+ dollars, what a rip off...
System of a Down, 2002 in Amsterdam. worst gig ever.
I like SOAD
hehehe, At first glance I thought you had said that you liked SOD.. Stormtroopers Of Death... I am sure not many of you will even know of the band of which I speak, but rest assured, they WERE a band..
The Strokes are just full of music critic hype.
There's nothing really great or original about them.

The Manic Street Preachers in Hamburg 98.
No show, no conversation with the audience.
Just said hello...played some songs...said thank
you...played some more songs...said thank you
and good bye after 80 minutes.

I quite like the Strokes.

Yeah, I used to like them, too.
their first album was fun. Although the songs all sound like a different version of just one song but it's alright.
The thing that proves that the Strokes are just a bunch of crap is the second album that sounds exactly like the first one. No development, no growing at all.
Well..and then the live show which is even more proof that they're not worth one good thing that's ever been said about them.
As Mr.Jingles said, it's just the hype, of which I actually don't understand where it comes from....
I think the same thing happens with The White Stripes, Sonja.
I have to say that 'Seven Nation Army' and 'The Hardest Button To Button' are superb songs, but the their entire album is absolutely dull and boring.
I just don't get what is it that critics find so great about bands like The White Stripes, or The Strokes.
I guess we'll just have to remember Freddie's words, and realize that music critics are nothing but a bunch of frustrated musicians.
