    Beck sucked!

    Really?
    I always liked his stuff, but wondered how he would be live.
    I kind of felt he fell into that category where you could see him being amazing, or you could see him sucking up the joint.
    I guess he's the latter.

    The futureheads opened for PJ in Copenhagen (2007). They really sucked and everybody was happy when they said they were playing the last song.

    i LOVE becks music, but have never gone to see live, mainly because each album is in its own genre and mixing them all into one live set doesnt seem possible....ive always stayed away from his shows....i think he is a studio genius, one of the best of our time.



    p.s - i will keep an eye out for the theory of a deadman bass player strut

    I've heard he could go either way. Personally if i had the chance i'd see him in a heartbeat

    ugh ... their lead singer is a preening little puss. I had tickets to see Ash, here in San Francisco, with the Bravery opening. Then, that tune "Honest Mistake" broke ... and they flipped the bill. Which really pissed me off as it cut Ash's set by about 15-20 minutes. But, it did allow us to walk out on the Bravery. So bad.

    When I saw PJ in Munich, I had no idea who the opener was ... on the way there, someone told me it was the Futureheads, I was ecstatic ... I love those guys ...

    Recently I went and saw The Duke Spirit, who rocked my face off .... they were opning for Mercury Rev ... who, I saw 10-12 years ago in Boston (as an opener) and they sucked ... well, we figured we'd stick around to check them out. Didn't make it through 4 songs ... they were embarassing.

    This is like therapy: I actually saw Smashmouth and Third Eye Blind; please shoot me 8-)

    I also had to stomach Limp Bizkit when they opened up for Faith No More in 97 and I remember thinking how terrible it was and then a year later, biggest band in the world. What a crappy time that was to be alive.

    It was pretty lame when I saw the Goo Goo Dolls when I was like 12 ( I was young so I liked it). I know they really suck hard now. I also had to sit through crappy ass Animal Collective this summer at APW, while waiting for Kings of Leon and Radiohead to blow the lid off the place!

    I saw them open up for Smashing Pumpkins. I was on a beer run and I hear them in the background and I was like..."Hmm, they're playing some Cure while we wait." It was The Bravery. Their singer is a blatant Cure ripoff. They did suck hard. Although I will say that one of their songs that's something like..."Every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear." was pretty funny. I couldn't agree more. "Every note from that band is a knife in my ear."
