I hate to say this but Neil Young was terrible in Hyde Park, and I love Neil Young. | |

Texas earlier this year. Didn't fancy in in the first place but the Mrs wanted to go. They weren't bad and I seemed to know most the songs but I found then incredibly bland.
I saw U2 in 1987 and they were bloody brilliant. That was a few years before Bono had disappeared inside his own arsehole though. |  |

Saw Oasis in Btum around 97., last date of their world tour. Think they were tired and / or had had a row, as they came across as completely uninterested.
Really disappointing, as on their day, reckon they'd be amazing. Left early as they were so sh1te. |  |

I turned down a pair of U2 full hospitality in VIP lounge etc etc at the O2.
Seems like we think the same. |  |

Foo Fighters
Chili Peppers
The Fall
First two weren't bad live but I knew I wouldn't like them as I don't like their music much, so no shame on them. The Fall, Mark E Smith pretty much always kicks off and doesn't end the gig and I knew that.
Basically, all three were my fault |  | | |

Agree about The Fall and it breaks my heart. Love their records but seeing MES as just a mumbling wreck was so disappointing. Like you say, I knew it was coming but I had to see it for myself. Did play a full set though... sadly.
In that way he's the truest punk. P1ssing off your own fans, ha. | |

In the 80's three or four of us used to book tickets for us all to go see stuff we fancied at Hammersmith Odeon, used to go three times a month plus. (this is how I ended up seeing ZZTop as mentioned in the other thread.
Anyways, Judie Tzuke, I swear I lived three lifetimes during the course of that concert. |  |

Van Morrison - he took our money and couldn't be arsed. Rushed through 40 minutes, not a word to the audience and no encore
Elvis Costello - loved his music, but he was a t0sser and wouldn't play any of his big songs.
Genesis - Only went because my then gf loved them. I was bored beyond belief. |  | | |

Oasis at the Point Depot in 2005, it was a train wreck! Liam was p!ssed off and hurling cans into the mosh pit. The sound was terrible couldnt hear Liam at all....
A far cry from their 1996 gig in Cork which was one of the best gigs I have been too. |  | | |

Jusdie Tzuke will always remind of the bargain bins in record shops in the 1980's.
You were always guaranteed to find one of her albums there with a cut out on the cover. | |

Thought of another.
Alexander O Neal (I know these aren't bands strictly speaking)
I loved him in the 80's, still love his first album but saw him about 10 years ago and he was a shambling wreck, off his t1ts, sweating profusely and mumbling through things badly.
He managed about 4 songs and walked off, which was probably a blessing for just about everybody there. | |

Took my Mrs to see Alexander Oneal a couple of years ago. He came on about an hour late did a half hour set and fooked off. | |

Saw her back in 1980, Welcome to the cruise tour, small venue, she was bloody good.
Meatloaf. Dreadful,
The Vapors. Equally dreadful,
Souxsie & the Banshees, Disintrested & played for 20 minutes, told the crowd to f##k off & walked off.
Jimmy Page. Hugely dissapointing, poor musicians backing him. |  |
| We have no village green, or a shop.
It's very, very quiet.
I can walk to the pub. |

Judie Tzuke? Agree, absolutely terrible.
But my worst by a mile was Madonna. Nothing whatsoever to commend it. I put up with an hour, and have regretted it every since, other than it set a new low to judge everything else against! | | | |

Aaargh - Meatloaf. Beat me to it. Saw him at Wembley Arena in the early 1980s, band were poor, sound was poor & he couldn't really sing. Also got stuck with a few spares as none of my mates fancied it. They were right.
A friend of mine made the mistake of seeing him at the O2 a few years ago & I warned him it would be garbage. He agreed afterwards. | |

After Meatloaf, other most disappointing one was Bowie at Wembley on the Glass Spider Tour. He played a poor set (he's decided he didn't want to play any of his 70s stuff any more) & sound was poor. There was all sorts of acrobatics & dancers on stage but no-one could really see it in the days before big screens so it was lost on the audience. Big Country were support & got the crowd going more than Bowie. He was rightly panned by the critics & changed his set list for the next gig. | |

I was ,lucky enough to miss that tour. Saw the Serious Moonlight tour in 1983 and the Greatest Hits tour in 1990. Glass Spider was the one in between. | |
