    It was terrible.

    So I'm not the only one. I actually thought it was an amusing show. Like so bad it's good type of thing.

    Any number of hairmetal bands. Of those, I'd probably go with Lita Ford. Or Britney Fox. :oops:

    I'm actually proud of not only seeing Michael Jackson on the Thriller tour, but the second show of the entire tour. I was 10 and got a contact high. We were just coming out of the 70's you see, everyone still got high at concerts.

    No offense, but why take them to see bad music?

    When I was little I loved 'gangsta' rap(Onyx, Positive K, Dr. Dre, and Paperboy were my favorites :lol: ), my dad refused to let me go see them (for good reasons obviously) but instead he took me to see Aerosmith for my first concert. After seeing them I never picked up another rap album.

    If you take your kids to see good music, chances are they will enjoy themselves and the wool we be pulled away from their eyes and they will see what they're missing out on.

    Because they asked me to take them. This thread was about embarassing acts so I mentioned one. Why then does that make you assume they haven't also seen good music?

    Since then they have been to: Pearl Jam (18x), NIN (6x), Lollax2, Warpedx2, Saul Williamsx3, AFIx2, The Cure, Springsteeen, RHCPx6, Tiger Armyx3, Street Dogsx2,Dropkick Murphys, among others.... capiche?

    Anyway, back to embarassing acts..... they still like the Jonas Brothers also. Kids are going to develop some silly tastes no matter what you do.

    Britney Spears is bad but let's talk about your profile picture. Sends a shudder down my spine. I have a permanent aversion to Jager since about 1994. You haven't lived until you're washing black vomit off of something you own. Thanks for bringing back some really bad memories for me.

    sweet smell that they adore
    I think I'd rather smother

    Sammy Hagar ... opened for Boston in 1977. Horrible.
    Saw the man open for ZZ Top in 1983....outstanding....1977 must have been a bad night for him.

    I saw that ZZ top tour and sammy was horrible then too!

    Most embarrassing?

    Perry Como

    Concert I expected to hate but really enjoyed:

    Papa Roach, Limp Bizkit, Eminem- Page and the Black Crowes cancelled. There was absolutely nothing interesting, as the Page/Crowes show was right at the end of the big concert season. Ticketmaster doesn't give back service charges and the like, so I woulda ate about half the money I put towards the tix.

    Bob Dylan- He embarrassed himself.

    I'd argue Vertical Horizon was the better band. I saw them at a "Earth Day" concert with Dido, Train, and I want to say Smashmouth in like 1999. Hey, it was free and for a good cause and my girlfriend at the time was in to Train and Dido. I actually enjoyed Dido.
