Probably my daughter's Christmas show at nursery last year. I've never known such an untalented and uncoordinated bunch. They absolutely butchered Jingle Bells and I nearly walked out halfway through We Wish You A Merry Christmas it was so out of tune. The crowd were a bunch of tossers as well and were extremely hostile to me once I started booing.

pleased mine are well grown up now.
the horror of the kids shows, a lesson in how to make 1 hour seem & feel like 5.
those hard plastic seats & the odd weird parents that actually enjoy the slow torture.
may have nightmares tonight.

 


Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents?
Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

An ex-girlfriend wanted to watch Eternal in the 90s......

two hours of gospel music, to a crowd of Devonians.

The relationship didn't last. She was punching to be fair...

pains me to say it as a) i love radiohead & b) i love the roundhouse.

however, thom yorkes “atoms for peace” album was absolutely exquisite but lost itself on the live circuit.

I saw Black Sabbath at the Lewisham Odeon and they were terrible. If my memory serves me correctly they were really late coming on stage with no explanation why and when they did come on they were all over the place especially Tony Iommi.

Sorry chaps, I was rummaging through the back catalogue and found this thread and Canterbury's post in particular had me chuckling.

Bit late I know, but worst gig for me was by a weird group called the Third Ear Band at Fairfield, probably around 1970. They were terrible. The only gig I've walked out of.

The other I recall, for very different reasons, was the Stones at Wallington Public Hall on a Tuesday night in the mid Sixties. Every Tuesday we'd pay 5 Shillings to see a band play - Hollies, Brian Poole, Manfreds etc and they all put in a good shift. There was invariably a fight to round off the evening and much fun was had by all.

Well for the Stones, who had by this time achieved a certain notoriety, management raised the entry fee to a ball breaking 7 Shillings and 6 Pence. The place was packed nevertheless, we waited an age for them to come on, they played for 20 minutes and buggered off. The fighting was rather more sustained that night as I recall.

 


Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.
