The singer was annoying, but Counterfeit and the Faith cover were awesome... then in the next 6 months or so Fred Durst became Fred Durst and that was the end of that.

Whoa! I do indeed envy a man who has a mind like a steel trap, Dave. I would never have remembered starting that thread, lol.

Also saw Nickleback in Red Deer Alberta before they were famous. They were pricks. We actually went to see the headliner (Jar, later to be known as Flybanger) and NB was opening. Never had the urge to see them (or hear them) again.

Modest Mouse sorta, at the Showbox 6 months before releasing Good News....
Tame Impala at 2010 Sasquatch festival, they replaced some other band at the last minute and played the smallest stage mid-afternoon.
Macklemore during a free show at easy street around 2009. Didn't know who he was and didn't go to see him, but he was performing and I had to wait for him to finish because he was blocking the album artists A-M
