birdwell Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 just remembered a few more...new post (yeah, I suck, whatever) Best: Reggie And The Full Effect (shit-ton of fun, posed for pictures mid-song, handed me the microphone at the beginning of the first chorus to "Thanks For Stayin' " and then jumped out into the crowd to "Sing A Long" which was weird, but awesome) Jimmy Eat World (i don't give a shit what you think about what album, consistantly sound great live) The National (far more energy than I thought they'd bring...mainly just that singer guy) Worst: Cave In (only caught 'em once...sounded like a big ole messy muddy pile of shit) Death By Stereo (annoyed the piss out of me live...never listened to them since that show) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devinr Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 The Bronx - easily the best band i've seen live. Going to see them tonight and I'm looking forward to them doing a Mariachi El Bronx set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lokithelion Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Best: Sunny Day Real Estate, Monotonix, Fireworks, POS, King Khan and the Shrines, A Wilhelm Scream, Animal Collective, Flaming Lips, Lawrence Arms Worst: Lawrence Arms, Macy Gray, Willie Nelson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtz Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Best is a long list so I'm not going to bother. Worst: Crime In Stereo Saves The Day Eighteen Visions (saw them right before they released Obsession, they basically played everything off that album and one or two old songs. huge disappointment. that album sucked) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aviolentworld Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 alot of best shows to post but i think one of my favorite over the years was Agent Orange. the worst is probably the bouncing souls. for some reason it always seems like the singer is a step behind the band.

opivy Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 BEST: fucked up paint it black title fight (might be because of the crowd, but everyone was PUMPED) menzingers New Found Glory(suprisingly) Have Heart (I think ALL of these are because of the crowds...) Worst: Saves the day (because I just want them to play through being cool) Forgetters(just because I had such high expectations, not that they were really "bad") Reel Big Fish(I liked ska when I was 16, but finally saw them at 20) Shook Ones(One of my favorite bands, but only me and one other kid singing along) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdwell Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 BEST:fucked up man, I love Fucked Up...but, finally saw them during SXSW (even with two members of Wu-Tang Clan free-stylin over them) and loved the set...but the only person who exuded any energy at all was Damian and the drummer man....I screamed along to every song, but the rest of the band seemed bored (or at minimum, lacking energy).......don't get me wrong, I'd see 'em again, just not as insane as I wanted it to be (Damian aside) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohiopride Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Best -Botch -Hope Conspiracy Worst -Norma Jean (2002 Furnace Fest). I believe you can get the dvd of it and you can see it for yourself. I like the band, but that was an abysmal set, out of tune, sloppy playing and equipment failures. It didn't matter though, kids seemed to love it anyway.

steventangent Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Killswitch Engage sucks really bad but they're always entertaining as fuck live. "This song is about....DARKNESS....and really......FIXATING on it!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
