The one artist/band you never want to see (again), dead or alive

For me, Bob Dylan, passed his peak 40 years ago but just won't go away

Garth Brooks. I do not understand how people can listen to such music. Obviously never saw him in concert. Evil stuff.

UB40. Never a fan but went with a friend a couple of years ago. It was physically painful listening to them.

Shakin' Stevens.

I was persuaded to go and see him back in the late eighties, not that long after he had gone off the scene. Christ he was insufferable. He complained about people who got up and danced in the aisles, people who stood at the edge of the stage, people who sang along. He lost his shit completely when a woman made it onto the stage and tried to get close to him. He threatened to cancel the concert if it happened again. I spent the rest of the night trying to get on the stage.

Incidentally I wasn't even a big REM fan as I was a 'plus 1', they put on a fantastic show though. My first of several trips to Slane.

That doesn't make it good though there's probably a good 400k smokers here too, I wouldn't want to be one of them either plus I guess many of those people had tickets for several of the 5 nights so it was never 400k people. 300k at most is my guess. Hopefully their taste has returned since.

Not a Garth Brooks fan but was working at his last concert in crime park. He is a great performer and entertainer for the crowd and interacts brilliantly with them. Even came back out when most people left the last night to make it a more intimate crowd and paid the fines for the late play.

For the show alone I would go to it

Went to Slane when Bryan Adams headlined.

Unfortunately for him, Moby was support.

Wasn't really into Moby but for occasionally liking one or two songs.

Let's just say he knocked it out of the park. Absolutely brilliant! Much heavier than the records and can play anything. Will pay to see him again.

Bryan Adams came on and we left after 4 songs of formulaic shite

Adele, like a funeral without a body. At most, the concert produced a 'gentle sway' from the crowd!

"You couldn't pay me to attend a Bruce Springsteen gig.

Im sure he is great, but the thoughts of standing and listening to the same dude sing songs for upwards of 4 hours sounds like hell on earth.

STOPPPPPPPPP "

Best live concert ever, seen him 6 times!

"Shakin' Stevens.

I was persuaded to go and see him back in the late eighties, not that long after he had gone off the scene. Christ he was insufferable. He complained about people who got up and danced in the aisles, people who stood at the edge of the stage, people who sang along. He lost his shit completely when a woman made it onto the stage and tried to get close to him. He threatened to cancel the concert if it happened again. I spent the rest of the night trying to get on the stage. "
