I saw them in the early 90’s and I just remember Kiedis acting like a jackass on stage. He just kept bagging on KC, calling us a hicktown and then going all during one of the breaks. I’ve had friends see them at other concerts and they were good, but I apparently picked the show where he decided to get drunk and make a fool of himself.

I saw the Black Keys at Kanrocksas in 2011 at Kansas Speedway and I thought they were terrible. I will grant that it was like 105-110 degrees most of the day, Black Keys played next to last and I was hot, sweaty and exhausted at that point.
They played in between A Perfect Circle and Muse so that didn't help them either because those bands were incredible. |

Not sure "regret" is the word but worst/most disappointing show was The Cars Heartbeat City in '84. Absolutely no interaction with the crowd, and it felt like they just put on a greatest hits CD and pushed play.

I got dragged to Rockfest in 2000 at sandstone. Just a total white trash shitfest but I had nothing better to do that day. Papa Roach, 3 doors down, GodSmack, Blue October, Jessie James Dupree. STP headlined and I’m not a huge fan but they were at least decent. Somebody threw a beer at Scott Weilands head and he challenged the guy to a fight, which was kind of cool.

All American Rejects were coked out of their gourds. We were taking pics for Phoenix New Times so were real close to the acts. I gave Tyson a Mexican Hello on his way to the stage and he returned it. Kinda cool. Those guys were whacked. Sounded awesome but I've never seen someone sweat like that. Guitar player slipped out of a few chords at first due to all the perspiration (and coke). Hottest day of my life. Did catch an awesome all female band that I viewed as a hidden gem of the festival. Turns out is was Halsey. Oh and Black Keys a few years ago was just uneventful. Easy music for the posers. They did try though. Last edited by eDave; 08-05-2020 at 12:24 AM.. |

I always heard Rush was like that back in the day. I've never seen them and not sure if I regret that but I've had ample opportunity to see them and just didn't. And I friggin' LOVE Rush. 2112 was my introduction and made me a progressive fan for sure. Alex Lifeson is a key influence of mine as well.

Bob Dylan opened Desert Trip and I was unemotional about seeing him as he's just not my bag. I spun it as "at least I can say saw Dylan".
This guy was up there with no lighting (just black and white), no live stream onto the massive screens and I don't think he left the piano. He apparently wouldn't let them film him so the put an old concert up there (black and white). BUT i maintain that he was the perfect opening act as 90K fans filed in, found their space and got know their neighbors for the weekend. Then the Stones took the stage and all hell broke loose. I will never see the Stones again as I want that show to be my memory. I can't describe how great they were and what 90K (older) fans just letting loose. One of the best moments of my life and the best set of the festival, followed closely by Neil Young and Roger Waters. |

I remember hearing Slaughter open for Ozzy on the no more tours tour, haha. Nothing sounded right, musicians were not sync'd at all, and the singing was AWFUL with unintelligible words. Just figured they were completely a studio band.

Yeah i agree it is a great album,very underrated imo.Maybe i did see them on their best tour with Dave haha.But i always liked him in Janes Addiction as well.I suppose BSSM is a bit overrated esp. with Give It Away being played to death.

Janes Addiction was one of my literal addiction in high school. Love that band.
