so, i was reading through the "dream show" and "what was the last show" and i started thinking about the WORST show i had ever been too.  had to have been this From autumn to ashes/atreyu show i went to.  

first off, a disclaimer.  i HATE atreyu.  always have.  every time i read some rant on tight panted, lip-ringed, assholes, i think of atreyu.  their sound, their look, their attitude...bleah.  

however, i kinda liked FATA.  not "OMG THEY ROCK" like, but their first cd was alright, it had a few songs on it i dug, so i thought, "eh, why not".  

i got there, and it cost $17 US to get in.  that should have tipped me off, immediately.  but no, i'm stupid and masochistic. i blame my mother.

so, we get there, and i'm just kinda waiting around, and the opening acts do their thing, which sucks.  and then, FATA gets on.  ok, i'm getting kinda stoked.  until they start to play.  dear lord, they're terrible.  like, awful.  they seem to have spent more time getting their hair done than they have practicing how to play their instruments.  their lead singer sounds like a prepubescent, hungover frog.  and then, halfway through their set, their lead singer says, and i quote, "yeah, i'm gonna have a smoke." and gets off stage.  their drummer gets up and starts to sing.  

what?  NO.  you do not get a SMOKE BREAK IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR SET.  you do NOT get to leave for FIFTEEN MINUTES to drink beer and hit on the strippers you let backstage for free.  you FUCKWIT.

as i left the venue, i passed a girl, who was singing along to all the songs, and crying.  yeah.  

so, whats the worst show you've ever been too?  doesn't have to be a band you love, or hate.  just a band that sucked, at least for one night.

Skibas_clavicle:
Hahaha. OUCH!

Atreyu sucks so hard. As does FATA. I saw then with Alkaline Trio a few years back. Don't even get me started on that crowd!

24_hour_revenge_therapy:
oh lord.  yeah, you know there are a few bands i LOVE, like alkaline trio, and who's fans, for the most part, i HATE.  i just want to grab them and scream "YOUR SIXTEEN!!!  LIFE IS GREAT!!! SHUT YOUR WHINY PIEHOLE, YOU DEGENERATE, MISBEGOTTEN SCUM!!"  they just ruin the experience for me.

Skibas_clavicle:
Heehee. I officially love you.

The crowd definately does ruin some shows, especially a little more mainstream punk bands, like Alk3. But hell, I had Matt and Dan right infront of me, so I shoved the emo girls back and yelled along to Clavicle at the top of my lungs!

Robbo:
Probably the last of the three times I saw Sikth. First two times they where on support, it was pre-album and it was a fun gig, not my usual shit, but I enjoyed and the other bands where good as well (can't be arsed to remember who they where at this moment).

Then, saw them head line after the album came out, mainly because it was cheap. Yeah, big mistake. Crappy support in the form of Hope Of The States, but Mahumodo where great, to the dozen or so people that actually cared. Then Sikth...just plain crappy, no energy, butchering an Iron Maiden song, lots of album tracks that where all horrible and then cutting the set short by about 30 minutes because they felt like it.

Worse than any pub gig ever. Because they've always been decent.
