Bands that Dissapointed You Live
TheFuriousWombat:
Sigur Ros without Amiina or a brass section are not as compelling live as when with them. The show was still good but it was the weakest of the four times I've seen them by far. Some of the songs just felt lacking. They played a lot of great stuff though. Hafsol was killer, their rendition of Heysatan was beautiful and, of course, Untitled 8 was brilliant as always. I'm not at all sorry I went but on the whole the show didn't meet my expectations.

You obviously just need to grow a pair.

Hahahahaha.
Man I was at a Sunn O))) gig too once and the bass was so loud I felt nauseous, even with ear plugs. My whole body was just telling me "dude get the fuck out, you are not made for this stuff". Also the music was terrible live.

At the risk of sounding like an old fart, how are people expecting anything else out of Sunn O)))? I know that albums of straight feedback have points where they feel transcendent...but what would you expect for a live show from a band who puts albums like that out?

Honestly, I thought it was like an unspoken rule that you wear brown pants to a Sunn O))) gig.

I saw Bright Eyes on the Digital Ash tour. So disappointing.
I only got to see the Faint's last two songs and they kicked the hell out of BE's entire set. Other than that, I've had great luck with shows.
Oh, yeah. I saw Jethro Tull when I was like ten and they were awful.

Gotta say, I'm not even a fan of this band, but I know this much. It's like going to see My Bloody Valentine. You take earplugs and a change of underwear.
