Bands that Dissapointed You Live

The Red Hot Chilli Peppers at Reading Festival and Slayer (twice) have disappointed me live. The Chillis weren't that bad, I liked the jamming but they played a lot of stuff from Stadium Arcadia that seemed to be filler. Slayer were really disappointing in the way they sounded, and they had a lots of flashing lights (in the daytime!), which annoyed me.

Thrillho:
Every piece of Chilis live footage I've seen from the last five years, Anthony Kiedis hasn't been able to hold a single damn note.

Nuance:
The first time I saw Modest Mouse they were incredibly disappointing, though I saw them again and they were a good deal better.  Brock being sober enough to find the microphone might have been the difference there. Also, ...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of the Dead went from jaw droppingly amazing when they were touring beind Source Tags & Code to pretty damn boring the last time I saw them, I was quite disappointed.

A_S00:
I saw Modest Mouse open for R.E.M. this last summer.  I wasn't all that excited about their recorded stuff; "Missed the Boat" was a fun, pleasant song, but nothing special, and I hadn't listened to any of their other stuff enough to recognize it if I heard it.  But DAMN they were terrible live.  So much for the subdued indie-pop my limited experience with them led me to expect.  Every song was an identical cacophany of over-distorted guitars and atonal and bored-sounding vocals, and every single one ended with a minute and a half of everybody flailing away aimlessly on their instruments, apparently only stopping when their arms got tired.  I'm not sure I detected a single actual note in the entire set.  And they didn't even have the balls to be enthusiastically atonal, they just seemed like they couldn't be bothered.

Tom:
Capitol Record has had Modest Mouse touring to promote their last record for the past 2 years, they are tired and bored. I'm not surprised you got a bad show out of them.
