I've seen enough the past 10 years to still call that the worst DMB show I've seen. It wasn't just the encore. The whole show was just down; they had zero energy or effort in that show. You can't just look at a set list.

    Crazy all the Counting Crows hate. I saw them 2002ish and it was an excellent show. Must be total hit or miss. I can see hot Duritz could put on a snoozer.

    the most disappointed i've been was when i saw vampire weekend at bonaroo. i think they would be suited better in a smaller venue, or at least indoors

    Goo goo dolls. It wasnt bad when Reznik was singing, but then they gave the bassist a couple of songs. That about ruined it. Sounded like a wounded animal.

    Vampire sucked when I saw them at a sold out smallish venue, a venue they had to move to because a smaller one had sold out so quickly. You'd think the band would have been happy, but it seemed like it was a real bother for them to have to play a show that night.

    I also had good Counting Crows experiences, although I primarily saw them from '97-'00.

    Counting Crows is one of my favorite live bands ever. right up there with Radiohead.

    go figure.

    i'd like to know what's the problem with your counting crows shows?

    they do a pretty awesome job of jamming with extended outros and they have three or four different ways to alternate certain songs and segues... unlike another band we know. they're pretty fucking diverse. even if you know what song they're playing, you have no idea how they could end it. adam is the best band leader/director currently touring. he changes things on the fly all the time and the band falls in.

    immediately thought of this when i saw the thread. had the misfortune of getting them opening both nights at jones beach in 2009. my god were they bad. every song sounded the same with one of two annoying lead instruments to pick from. i couldn't tell when one song ended and another began. longest 45 minutes ever. thank god it was only 45 minutes though.

    Don't think I've ever been to a "bad" concert. DMB in 2012 wasn't that memorable, but that was mainly my fault.

    Never been to a festival with multiple acts and I only go to concerts of bands I love fwiw

    Chance wasn't bad, he just made me angry.

    Dude had an hourlong slot at this festival I saw last year. Came on 10 minutes late and finished 10 minutes early.

    Did he only get 2/3 of his pay, then? Because he only did 40 minutes of an hourlong set.

    That's exactly what happened at my show too. Played for about 45 minutes. 10 of which he was just rambling on about Jesus and blessings. His voice was trash that night too.

    Just awful. Couldn't even listen to it and it took a good minute into Mr Jones to even realize that's what they were attempting to play.

    The best part about the buffet show at PNC was when he did tripping billies during the sound check.

    Kid rock puts on amazing shows. I've seen him three times and each time it did not disappoint.

    I'll agree with this too. In fact Aerosmith in general is kind of let down. When they toured with Kiss, Kiss blew them away.

    He's never been a singer. He's a lyricist.

    I've seen a lot of awful bands in festival settings. Couldn't imagine a reason to remember their names.

    Die Antwoord is the most awful band that I will definitely see every chance I can. They're awesome.

    OAR - decided to spend $15 on the ticket when they came to Uconn while I was there. Maybe stayed for 2 songs and decided going to the bar was a MUCH better option.

    Huge waste of money. Those guys sucked.

    Saw them in Tulsa in 2004 and they were good. Saw them open for DMB two years later and they were not good.
