Not every band/artist puts on a great show. Who ruined it for you? Who could you have gone without seeing live?

For me it was 311. Long time fan since high school in the 90’s. Had an opportunity to catch them at Red Rocks a few years ago.

Their energy was…frolicky? The way they frolick around the stage is super distracting. They do the “clap in front of you, then clap in back of you” thing a lot (go ahead try it, it’s weird),lots of Overhead clapping but he actual frolicking and skipping and hopping around like little kids with a bucket of sidewalk chalk… very distracting from the musical energy. They looked like 8 year olds doing a talent show but weren’t sure what to do with their hands and bodies. They lack that fluid “cool” stage presence thing artists are supposed to have.

I was eating in a restaurant yesterday and they play music videos on the TV’s and the video for “Amber” came on. I absolutely LOVE the song, but the damn video… more frolicking.

311 is strictly for the ears from now on
