Always fascinated by this type of thing and these Di'anno gigs in Australia certainly fit the bill, footage is atrocious. So many facets to it, what's going through the other musicians minds etc, if you were part of the audience would you just hang on and grab the popcorn or fuck off?
Has anything like this happened at a show in Dublin? Only meltdown I can think of right now is Axl's walk off at the 3Arena.
Quote"Di'Anno's favorite word contains four letters and begins with C — and just about everyone was in the firing line. The bloke at the sound desk was one, multiple punters literally begging him to keep playing — all shared the same word. One punter got told to call a cab or he was going home in an ambulance. It would almost have been funny if it wasn't so sad. I wanted to follow the lead of a few others and just walk out, but morbid curiosity got the better of me and I stayed until the bitter end. Di'Anno was on a bizarre journey. Like the stages of grief, we saw the denial of it being anyone's fault but his own. Next was expletive-ridden anger directed at a female punter near the front being told to 'shut the f^%k up' and to either stop drinking, or drink more. It was hard to tell in his rambling rant. The bargaining started with a few songs from the end of the show, and although the sound guy was still a C — now came contrition, apologies, and the promise of a free show for when/if he returns. Depression is what we were all feeling and Di'Anno looked like a defeated man."
I can't recall being at anything quite so shite as that Di'Anno footage. If you go to one of his gigs, though, you deserve everything you get. He has been a complete mess for how long now?
I've been a part of some, though. I was in a band where the singer left half way through a gig. Left the stage, left the band. The second half of the set was worse than the first, I can assure you. In a different band, the singer - not the same lad - got into a fight with some of the crowd at the end of the gig. It's no craic when you just want to play some tunes and fuck off and this shit blows up around you.
QuoteI can't recall being at anything quite so shite as that Di'Anno footage. If you go to one of his gigs, though, you deserve everything you get. He has been a complete mess for how long now?
Yeah, would agree that expectation there would've been quite low.
Down the rabbit hole now, first minute of this is pure gold. Circle pit adds to the bizarre nature of it all

A trainwreck, but brilliant!
The first time Down played Dublin, a totally wasted Phil Anselmo and Pepper Keenan were bickering with each other. Anselmo kept calling Keenan a cocaine addict, much to Keenans annoyance who wanted Anselmo to stop his drunken rambling and introduce the next song. Towards the end of the show it looked like they might actually kick off properly when Jimmy Bower fucked a drumstick at Anselmo to get him to fuck up and get on with the show.
The next day the old forum was full of praise for it being a pure rock and roll show but it was a farce to have paid to see it.
Ah, glad you brought that one up. That was my exact recollection of it. Wasn't quite a trainwreck but it was a poor poor performance and very tense on stage. I thought the band kept it tight reasonably well but the sound in the Ambassador was dire and Anselmo butchered every track vocally. The brodude contingent lapped it up and I remember the praise on the old forum the following day "Loved it when Anselmo wore the Irish Flag" etc.
I remember the b'auld Phil at one point reaching for the Mic missing it and losing his balance and went flat on his back.
I must have seen them the time after that because they were great when I saw them. Although, I was bananas so who fucking knows :laugh:
I'd imagine we're talking about the same gig. 2006 at the Ambassador.
Most seemed to love it but I genuinely think people were over excited at the occasion, it was a shit performance.
CKY in the Ambassador. Not my thing anyway but they were hammered and falling around the place. Toward the end the guitarist climbed on top of a speaker and tried to do that 'throw the guitar over your shoulder, around behind you and back in front' move, only for said guitar to be launched into the crowd and some young punter's face. After that the plug was pulled on them. Atrocious, although the young lad I had brought to it enjoyed them, and they were with it enough to chat & sign a few bits for him after.

I think the next gig was the following year. They were much better then and were even better a few years later in the Academy.
Oh another disastrous gig was Soulfly in the Academy. Now admitedly I'm not a fan but a mate gave me a spare ticket for it and the gig was so bad that I still felt ripped off. Max owes me at least the parking and tolls for that one! Seeing the once great Max looking like the trash heap from Fraggle Rock while playing air guitar above his ACTUAL guitar was a sad sight indeed.
Grave Miasma and the guitar restring that took up most of their set at Redemption fest years ago. I think someone said it was an unnaturally complicated guitar to replace a string.
I was at that Down gig but can't remember a thing about it for good or bad, was on the beer for days at that point and was probably as mashed as Anselmo by that point
Nuclear Assault in the Astoria in 2003. John Connelly wandered on stage drunk as an extremely drunken skunk. Started ranting about something, then about 15 mins in sat down and stopped playing. Lilker and co finished the song, and that was it.
Nuclear Assault, that show in the Village as it was then around 2004/2005 was possibly the worst thing I've ever been at. Absolutely dreadful, sound was terrible to boot. Band looked like they were there for a laugh.

I must have been the only person not sloshed out of their brains at this show :laugh:
Massacre in The Voodoo around 07/08,it was a bit of a mini fest thing with Extreme noise terror and local bands.Kam Lee was truly an embarrassment!.
Another one that makes my blood boil was Pungent stench in Whelans in 2005?.I was a fan boy since my teens in the 90s,so was excited to finally see themThey played a set full of covers!,played fuck all old material.Thankfully Martin Schirencs band played all the classic material in Cork years later!,made up for it!
I went to see Down in the Astoria in London in 06 as there hadn't been an Irish date announced at that point . They were absolutely amazing that night.
The next time they played The Ambassador be it 07/08 was fairly sloppy. Lots of him meandering around with that pout .
Paradise Lost in Nancys for the new sound tour. Host maybe.
It's not that it was a train wreck it was more a case of a lot of people wondering what the fuck is this.
Abandon Incarnate in Fredz used to be a twin wreck but it the best possible way. Absolutely bananas music played by people who looked demented on stage. Now maybe I was demented and they were all fine. Who knows.
Abaddon Incarnate played Fredz with Rato Raro and was indeed demented. Both bands were utterly relentless. The tore into it like a high speed runaway train maybe, but I certainly wouldn't call it a train performance.

The gig I'm referring too was around the time of The Last Supper. By no means was it a train wreck in the sense of the original post. I suppose it was more unhinged bedlam.
Unhinged Bedlam is a perfect way to describe Abaddon live back then. However I did see them once where the wheels came off the cart and that was supporting Morbid Angel in the music center. No bassist that night for whatever reason and the remaining three members seemed to be playing different tracks or tempos to each other, they only got around 15 minutes too. I remember the singer saying "this is the behaviour of the Jews" when the proverbial hook was pulled on the performance :laugh:
Did a tone have the misfortune to witness House of Pain in Limerick way back in the day? Can't remember the venue, it looked like half the band weren't there. Played a few songs and walked off ittey bizarre
Steve from AI was always, and presumably still is, a ferocious frontman, one of the best to ever do it from Ireland.
Was the Down gig the one where Keenan and Anselmo had the fight of cocaine, Keenan fucked off for s short bit with Anselmo ribbing him. "He'll be back, he ain't going nowhere, needs the cash n the coke...."
There was a reference to Keenan and his white line fever......
Megadeth restarting "In My Darkest Hour" the Drover brothers..... full blown train wreck!
Was at Down in 06 in The Ambassador and thought it was great. Was well sauced though.
1349 in Dublin where yer man set his head on fire was fairly mock
Now I'm assuming we're keeping it to things we've seen ourselves but if we aren't, check out Scott Weiland and The Wildabouts for one of the bleakest things ever caught on camera
Abbath (in south America somewhere was it?) a few years back was an absolute mess!,grim footage!.
QuoteNow I'm assuming we're keeping it to things we've seen ourselves but if we aren't, check out Scott Weiland and The Wildabouts for one of the bleakest things ever caught on camera
Yeah that is a trainwreck for different reasons, very sad. Seen STP on other occasions and he was on point. I'm amazed that show with the wildabouts went ahead, surely someone from the band or a tour manager could've stopped it
Weren't there amazingly shite performances by both Ginger Wildheart and Sebastien Bach years back in Belfast? I wasn't there but remember the old forum having lots to say on them.
Think Ginger assaulted someone in the audience.
And from what I can remember Bach just had an attitude, thought he was too big for the limelight or whatever and they dumped whatever Irish band that were supporting them off the tour, have a feeling it was an Answer or Glyder type band.
I was also at that Down show which I really enjoyed and don't remember any of what people are talking about here. I also went to one of the English dates because like mentioned above it took forever for the Irish shows to be announced. The Uk gig was better than the Irish one but I always put that down to it being the first time seeing them.
The two shows back to back in the Academy a few years later was the best out of all the times I have seen them.
One awful gig that comes to mind is the Deicide one in Temple Bar were Glen was in the middle of a divorce so he didn't bother coming to Europe and they had people from the crowd get up to sing the songs very disappointing when the main person you come to see in a band doesn't bother showing up. That was the beginning of all the shows here being cancelled for one reason or another over the next few years.
Another one was Warmoon Lord at a festival late last year. Was looking forward to seeing them and they ended playing an instrumental set which the show was not advertised as. A complete and utter waste of time.

Quote from: astfgyl on January 20, 2024, 04:24:28 PM1349 in Dublin where yer man set his head on fire was fairly mock
Which show was this? From memory I have seen them in Dublin 3 times Supporting Gorgoroth in 05, They supported Enslaved at that 06 Village gig and they played around 2011 or 12 a few months after Hail Of Bullets played. I don't remember anyone being set on fire.
It was the Enslaved one. The lad came out with the fire thing and set himself up. Went side stage while the band continued on and didn't come back out for ages the fuckin stook

Think the Abbath South America one was where he was such a drunken mess the show had to be abandoned and he ended up bawling crying walking through the audience. Think he ended up in rehab after that. Saw them in London a bit later and he was drinking water!
I don't remember that at all I must have missed it as it is something I definitely would not have forgotten. I do remember the sound being awful for 1349 that night then I heard afterwards that the band purposely wanted things to sound that way.
That Gorgoroth/1349 gig was savage. Atilla doing Buried By Time and Dust with 1349 before he had rejoined Mayhem was class.
Speaking of fire, there was a Cork BM band at one of the Winterfests. Yer man lit his beard on fire and then one of the guitarists fell off the stage. It was amazing.
Not casting aspersions, I've played some absolutely hooped gigs.

Did that really happen? What a disgrace ha ha. Who played bass, was there no vocalist at all? I've played some shoddy cover gigs in my time but even that is a bit much ha ha ha
I thought it was someone from the crew fell in?
I think it was the singer from one of the supports and some dude from a Polish band who went on the tour with them, can't remember his name. The polish lad played bass too but only knew about half the set. The lad from the support band didn't play bass so they started the set with no bass.
It was an alright gig, actually 🤣
I know the have a flaky reputation live;but the gig they did in the Village with Jack owen and Dave Suzuki was unreal!
Talking about crew filling in for singers, remember that Death gig without Chuck?
Yeah, again, it was a decent set... just not SH era Death. It wasn't shambolic performance by any means, it just wasn't the band everyone wanted to see. I think I still have Walt Thrashler's plec around somewhere.
I'd rank Obituary in McGonagles touring Cause Of Death as a bigger disappointment. There was gear set up on the stage, just no fucking band showed up. Can you have a trainwreck when there was no performance? :laugh:
Didn't something similar happen when Paradise Lost were touring Gothic? PL played alright, but I think Benediction were due to support and were a no-show. The party line was that they'd missed the ferry but I think there was a more mundane explanation, a fight within the band or something. McGonagle's again.
What was the capacity of McGonagles, saw Morbid Angel there on Blessed tour. Ace was packed, was it similar to Dolans?

I saw that Glen-less gig, I can't remember when it was though. They were supported by a band one time Wykked Witch and genuinely I was wondering what I was doing spending my money going to see live music for at all. One of the worst experiences I've ever had at a gig.
I saw them in Dec 04 in the Village, the above gig I think was in maybe Sept/Oct 2005, Jan 2007 both in TBMC and then that other show. Was it a gig from Visceral Bleeding or Prostitute Disfigurement who stood in for him?
Maybe that January 2007 gig was the one he wasn't at.

Shambolic acts, so vivid!
I've seen Mastodon have a few stinkers. I think the worst was Hellfest 2007, there had been a fire on the main stage early in the day and all bands up until 5pm maybe got cancelled. I think they were the first band in there as a result. Sound was dogshit, the seemed really fedup and just like they'd rather be anywhere else. Brent fucked his guitar off at one stage, pissed off back stage.

Two or three hundred at most I'd say, it was tiny. Only saw that PL gig and Mordred around the same time, wasn't a place I was fond of. Condensation running down the walls and dripping from the ceiling is my clearest memory of it.

Was two shows alright one in 05 then another in 07. Maybe the gig without Glen was 07 One thing I do remember is Killswitch Engage played in the ambassador the same night as the gig with no Glen because Jack Owen made a comment about them playing just over the road and he was taking the piss out of them on stage. Wykked Witch played at the show that Glen showed up to because I remember we were standing outside after it and the vocalist from Wykked Witch came up and just started talking to myself and my mate we had idea who or what she was.
I have the ticket stubs from all three Deicide shows so can check to confirm the dates.
It is mad to think that the last time Deicide played in Ireland is 17 years ago this month.

Nope. End Complete was the no show. I remember walking down that fucking straight outside Carrickmacross looking for a lift after the show, as I had school the next day. Got home around 3am, and wore the shirt in PE first thing the next morning.
The End Complete no-show, found out when I got to the Sound Cellar that it was off (was told they had missed the ferry), and used my refund to buy A vVision of Misery on tape.

It was my first ever death metal show. Before they played Bible Basher Benton threw a tomato into the crowd which I caught and kept, my Ma ended up throwing it out during the week. Didn't even get to make a sambo with it, enjoy it once upon th crust.
Mayhem on the OAC tour in 07 (I think) is one I remember hating for years and years, but I wonder if I was wrong about it. I wasn't into the album at all at the time, revisiting it a bit in the last few years I realize how much depth there actually is in it. It was definitely wanky but I wonder was it better thani give it credit for.
Ordo is a good album but that gig was indeed scutter.
Ya, that gig was cuntish. I was mad into OAC, still love it, but they were mental to try and replicate that sound live. Treble all the way down and bass all the way up.

Have been fortunate not to have experienced any terrible gigs but..
Speaking of Obituary, I saw them touring 'Xecutioner's Return' in Dublin many moons ago (with Ralph Santolla RIP). I remember the setlist being mostly from that album and the crowd were just... still. It was extremely awkward. Things properly kicked off though when they eventually played all the old 'hits'.

I was at one of those 00s Deicide shows but I can't remember which one. No idea who supported but Wykked Wytch rings a bell. I can't remember anything about them and can hardly remember Deicide.
I'll see if I can rustle up more fascinating gig anecdotes later. Standby.

They were suppose to play here in April 2022 doing Legion in full with Krisiun but the show got cancelled. Krisiun came back at the end of the year supporting Nile but Deicide was never rescheduled. Even if they do plan again by the time that happens they will be touring the upcoming album so we will never get the Legion in full show.

that is a pity now. There is a gig of it on YouTube from somewhere in the states and they seem really on form and blasted through Legion and all the classics
Yep, live in Florida. Savage set.

And from what I can remember Bach just had an attitude, thought he was too big for the limelight or whatever and they dumped whatever Irish band that were supporting them off the tour, have a feeling it was an Answer or Glyder type band.
The Sebastian Bach Belfast gig went off without a hitch. He stood outside signing stuff and taking photos for ages afterwards, it was a great time.
There was a fallout with Stormzone at one of the subsequent UK gigs (Glasgow maybe?) and that's when they were kicked off the tour.
Bach was interviewed and asked about it later and that's when he was implying he was too good to be playing somewhere like the Limelight.
Wykked Witch are a definite candidate for worst band I've ever seen.
