I wonder if any of the regular posters on this thread have ever walked away after a gig thinking "what a load of shite that was".
Personally can't ever recall thinking that.

Compare & contrast with our other main fan based activity.
Generally music = superlatives & football = expletives.

Anyway, Jesus & Mary Chain in good old Sussex by the sea tonight.
Lucky enough to bag a ticket for a warm up show.
Do like Brighton, the place has a gritty edge to it.

Ian Brown in Luxembourg. Absolutely pitiful.

Yeah, there have been issues when he's played live.
Ok when I saw him & had a decent backing band.

Like the Buzzcocks without Pete Shelley.

Obviously he sings like a drain but he just kept fucking up. Maybe it was 'amusing' the first time when he didn't start the song correctly and had to redo it, but the 4th time he fucked something up just got irritating.

Undertones without Feargal Sharkey, probably quite a few that have done this.

Hes pretty decent live and a nice bloke off stage too, seen him a couple of times.

Well, we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out

I saw QOTSA in Birmingham last week. First time in 18 years, I think, having seen them live quite a few times up to Lullabies to Paralyze.

They were great but there was a very 'Sunday evening' feeling within the crowd. Felt flat.

Always good to see The Chats too.

I think I last saw them about then on the Lullabies tour... Reading Festival 2005.
