Worst Live Bands

As a follow on to Rimms' topic  :)

I have to say Radiohead - my friend had 2 tickets for Birmingham NEC and no way to get there and I had a car and no tickets (and no great desire to have any either). They wew *exactly* like the records - they may as well have mimed it was so accurate. Not what I had been used to at all. Rubbish!

Bitter sweet for me, the Pogues, I really looked forward to it as I really liked them at the time, but Shane McGowan was so wasted he slurred his way through the first 2 songs then propped himself up at the side of the stage swigging a bottle of vodka and arguing with the rest of the band, the remaining band member's stood up to the mark and like troopers carried it off, but would have liked to hear more of Shane !!
