Comprehensive List of Bands That I've Seen but Wish I Hadn't (1 Viewer)

B&S rocked my world that time in the gas place.

I've been to plenty of mildly disappointing gigs but Mum in Vicar St was absolutely dreadful. I loved the first album, and have hated everything since. Yer wan's childish voice just drove me wrong. Animal Collective supported and were shit also.
Went with a mate to a band called The Concretes in TBMC ages ago. God they were awful.
On the comedy front I saw Des Bishop and Tommy Tiernan on various bills at the Cat Laughs over the years and I have always been amazed at how anybody could find them funny.

The Concretes

I saw them at HWCH the year they brought over a load of Swedish bands to play it. They were pretty terrible alright. I liked them up to that point. Their first album was pretty decent. Then this gig. Then I got their second album and it was terrible.

first world problems never had it so good.

Was that the infamous occasion where the security had a separate queue for under 18s ?

What they did was pretty ingenious, They had a sign up saying under 18's this way, promising that they'd be lead to a "priority section". Then they lead everyone who voluntarily followed into a corral and 5 minutes before the gig started they simply announced that their tickets were invalid without I.D and sent them home. A mate of mine was at that, he was 17, he pissed and moaned for about a month afterwards.

Never heard that, utter cuntish behaviour. Speaking of which, how long till their legal dept. gets onto Pete, with a cease & desist or we'll sue notice

I was at both those shows. Mum were alright but I absolutely hated Animal Collective. And still do. I'd never heard of them before and could claim much hipster cred (and may do in the future if I'm ever drunk at a party and trying to get into some naive hot female hipster) but shite is shite.

The Concretes were good until your wan who sang on that Peter Bjorn and John song left them. First album is super. There is one or two songs on the next one that are good (Actually "Grey Days" is an absolutely awesome tune).

I think that under-18s queue thing is absolutely fucking hilarious. They should have an under-18s door in every bar in Ireland

 

[east hastings]

Peter, Bjorn and John
The Sex Pistols
Brian Adams
Bob Dylan

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

I'd know exactly what to expect,and I'd still love to see the Sex Pistols. Mostly just to see Jones & Cook play.

 

[Cornu Ammonis]

Bob Dylan at the Point. I had seen him in Kilkenny a few years before and he was sensational. The second time pretty much killed my interest in him until he released that Christmas album.

 

[Gambra]

Raging Speedhorn, Æthenor & Skitiv were the worst bands I'd ever willingly subjected myself to. No doubt I've seen my share of shocking bands as support or at festivals but I've blocked them out at this point.

 

[washingcattle]

Ill Nino
Drowning Pool.

Basically Ozfest until Slayer came on.

Actually that's a lie, System Of A Down were entertaining.


Fucking hell I forgot Relish.

I saw them about 10 times in one year, they supported fucking everyone and where on every festiva line up, until they packed it in and turned this

Thusly lowering the bar for the concept of selling out.

Bob Dylan at the Point. .

I was at this too.. snoozefest

I was told someone fell off the stage ..which would have been a highlight if I could remember it

 

[CinnamonBoy]

Ah Relish. I think we played a gig with them once. I don't want to click on that Zephyr song, it was quite catchy. Did it get re-worked for the Westlife tune?
