Worst act you ever saw live

[Barnfred 55]

Who was the worst group/act you ever saw live. This wins hands down for me. I was unfortunate to see them live at Erics in the late 70s and they were truly dreadful. Ashamed to admit they are a Liverpool band too, arguably the worst ever. Amazingly it comprised a star studded lineup that went on to be involved in hundreds of hits worldwide including several number 1s.

Sticky Vicky

Easy one for me- Red Hot Chilli Peppers. They didn’t care a jot about the gig, treated it like a night off before their bigger gigs in England.

 

[DualityNSNO]

Don Broco in the UK.

A local "legendary" rock band warming up for ACDC when they were in Bulgaria. They were utter ass and acted like people were there to see them for some reason.

Oasis. They split up not long after.
They reformed and decided to play V so off I went again, they split up again.
Maybe it's me?

Nico, completely wasted.

 

[coollino]

Red hot chili peppers, Ian brown - both at festivals.

Jamie xx

 

[Pootsy]

Holgate and Keane last season acting like paid Premier league defenders.

Singing acts: Adam Ant. Saw him this year. Went full pelt at the first song and was breathing out his hole the rest of the time.

 

[Brendan Janus]

Shane Richie !

 

[Kurt.]

Scouser at a PIP assessment






COME AT ME !!!!!!!

I saw John Bishop, in the Neptune, well before he somehow hit the big time and at time I had no idea he was a prick.

I walked out at the break, he was that bad.

He’s still using some of the same “ gags” now.

Van Morrison.
Pissed and couldn't be arsed.

Funnily he's also been some of the best I've been to.
Cranky little Irish bellend.

Page and Plant at the NEC about 30 years ago. They were not dreadful, but it was just so disappointing.

Robin Trower at the Stadium. Walked out. Gave my ticket to someone outside the doors but warned him not to go in. Poor sod if he did.

 

[Bedfordblue]

Black Grape in Wolverhampton (iirc)
Ian Brown in Cambridge.
Good atmosphere at both but neither are particularly good at live performance.
