And very, very bad times for David indeed.
Blur in 95 was gawd awful. There were others of course but this one was my first very bad live experience.
Worst live experience ever : Kate Bush.
Coz I've never seen her onstage and probably never will.

Now I think about it, I did pay to see Marxman and Dub Syndicate - mind you, it was at Crystal Palace in July 93. The headliners sucked but the special guests were kind of fun...

Strangely, thinking back, None (with the possible exception of The Stone Roses @ Reading (their last ever performance, where everyone had left except Ian Brown, who still couldn't sing - but I knew that - and kept telling everyone to "Take those f***ing flags down or we won't play anymore" and loads more flags went up and people cheered) (oh, hang on, would that count, I dindn't pay to go?)scotty wrote:That's it people.............get it off your Chests.....you'll feel better for it
But if we're talking support bands;
zera 1 (terrible U2 sound-a-likes)
The Shamen or PWEI way back in the late eighties/early nineties when they were both jingly-jangly bands. I can't remember who was supporting who on the bill, but the supporting band was terrible.

Big in Japan Glesga keelies BIS - you don't remember them? Good!
My first ever gig, I was 14. In my defence I was getting into Siouxsie at the time and it was because my friend liked them.
Machinehead when I was 15 - Once again, dragged along by a friend. It was her birthday so... I only heard them for the first time in the car on the way there.
Perhaps worst of the lot, Placebo, just shortly after the BIS gig that was.
I can only hang my head in shame for that one, I have no idea what I was thinking.

What made up for paying though was my pal Darren giving Degville a pasting on stage after he riled the crowd. The bouncers did nowt.

I came that close to Whitesnake, and barely managed to get out of it with some fairly pathetic pleading excuses.
