Been to see some talentless gits on stage recently? Had your enjoyment spoiled by a twat with an iPad filming the whole thing? Been bottled off? Tell us all

Went to see Red Hot Chili Peppers last year.
One of the support bands were called The Wombats. Check them out on Youtube, they are absolutely shite. Worse than dubstep.

They played what they said was their last song, then told us they were going to play one more. My mate shouted, "But you fucking promised it was the last song!" Then stormed off to the bar.

Just checked them out
Derivative shite. Nearly as bad as DJ's and MC's.

Two DJs are in a bar and one says: "Do you wanna come and see World War Z this weekend?"
"Depends," says the other one. "Who's the projectionist?"

Sorry.
I didn't think anyone would actually have a listen after I slated them. I'm not going to check out DJ's and MC's though, I already hate the sound of that.

To be fair, you'd paid to see Red Hot Chilli peppers in the 21st century
so you don't really get to have an opinion on music.

I anticipated a response of this sort and I would say the same to me.
However, they only played 3 songs from the new album and the rest was all Frusciante era stuff. Plus I have a bit of a hard on for Josh Klinghoffer... Only not when he's with RHCP.

The Wombats though, I'm not alone in my hatred of them.

I'm a massive hypocrite.
I went to see them in Paris a few years back but only because the Pixies were support and had just reformed. They weren't abysmal. Just bland.

Was that La Cigale?
I've seen some footage of that gig, I thought the Chilis' end jam was really good.

The Wombats are utter cunts
I read an interview with them before I'd heard any of their music and they came across as complete pricks.

“Let's dance to Joy Division, and celebrate the irony”

Well aren't you fucking clever and insightful, you gobshited thundercunt.

Agreed. "Ironic" smartarsery is no substitute for entertainment.

I'd never even heard anything about them before the gig
And I've heard nothing since, but your post describes perfectly what I saw from them.

must have been a very quiet gig for them to hear your friends heckle. Plus, how do you know
they went to the bar. Were the peppers playing in your local pub?
(, Sat 27 Jul 2013, 8:25, closed)
I think you may have misunderstood my post, Good Sir.
My friend stormed off to the bar after the heckle. I'm not sure if The Wombats heard him.

Miscomprehension is my specialty. Cheers.
