    Aside from the laundry list of awful bands I've seen as part of festival type shows, I'll have to go with Vertical Horizon. They played at my buddy's school and were just atrocious, and to top it off I spent most of the show ridiculing them only to find out during a heart felt speech by the lead singer about his mom and dad that his parents were sitting literally RIGHT behind.

    I was at Mohegan Sun on Friday, and Bon Jovi was there playing Fri/Sat. Good people watching! TONS of people in the same cloths that were popular when Slippery When Wet came out.

    Got roped into seeing 'Bread' back in High School by my girlfriend.
    It wasn't a total loss, because 'Steely Dan' opened with their debut album.
    But, yeah... 'Bread'. For a Led Zeppelin/Who/Sabbath/Bowie/Alice Cooper kid... it was audio lobotomy.

    I think I've answered this thread before, but another one came to mind- I got dragged to a 311 (not embarrassing)/Sugar Ray (embarrassing) show MANY years ago by my step-sister. I'm not really a 311 fan (I like a few songs) and have never been a SR fan. I pretended to be sick, but my step-sis wouldn't take no for answer. Well, at least it was a free show :oops:

    I saw Vanilla Ice in his metal days. It was actually a decent show. Not that I'd do it again, but I'm glad I checked it out. It was worth the money just to watch his drummer/juggler.

    Matchbox 20 and Lifehouse. I went because my wife never goes to shows, and wanted to go to this one, so I went along. I hated it from the moment I arrived.

    Lets just say that I lost something at a Jackyl/Tesla concert. Perhaps the most disappointing night of my life.

    I'll guess it was your dignity. :lol: and WHERE at the show did you lose it? :shock:

    Bon Jovi at Heinz Field a few years back. Oh yea, and Nickelback was the opener just to add to the misery...
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    I've been unfortunate enough to see Papa Roach live twice now as an opener. The rest of the concerts were good, but oh my God, I hope I never have to sit through them again.
    Thanks EPOTTSIII!

    way back in 1990. David Lee Roth, Cinderella and Extreme. The Knick seats at leat 12.000 and 9000 of the seats were empty.

    Awful music and thankfully PJ came along and saved us.

    I'm not really embarassed about any show I've purchased tickets for. I could maybe say Kansas at a county fair here in Utah, but in all honesty...that show kicked so much ass. Plus, I successfully snuck down to the front row.

    But, I do remember seeing Styx and the opening act was Nelson...:sick:

    I have no embarrassment for any of the shows I've attended. Took my sister to see Jason Mraz last summer, loved it, and I've seen Hootie and the Blowfish twice. I actually love Hootie! Whatever. Live music is live music. Unless it's rap.

    I also saw Nickelback, but they were part of a festival lineup before they were famous. They played at 3 on a Sunday afternoon right before the Headstones!

    I love all the honesty... and no complete haters!
    I also saw REO Speedwagon a few years back at our brewery's summer concert... I'm not going to lie, a guy with a guitar is ALWAYS a good time... In my book.
