Wow I am very surprised to see Joy Division on the worst list. I thought most people who saw them loved them? out of interest why were they so bad? Much love to John Copper Clarke and still doing the rounds today.

They came across as a dire muddy dirge that seemed to go on for hours

There playing a gig in London in May(?) but they havent released any material since 2008 and the only have album they released came out in 2000 so they are a strange act!

I use to love JJ72

Yeh, me 2, although in retrospect he was a little whiney

Just done a bit of researching and she released an album last week under the name of 'The River Cry'

Very dark & morbid sounding songs

Really!! I thought she was a cardboard cutout eye candy to help sell the band rather than a musician.

Bit harsh haha!

Yeh I guess, I remember reading something about her having only played bass for a couple of weeks when she joined the band tis all

Seen too many decent support acts to mention, but the worst must be those who backed Metallica a few years back at the MEN.

The Sword, stereotype heavy rock band. 2 verses, mind numbing 5 minute guitars followed by 3rd verse. Think Spinal Type with guitar stance. Next up, Machinehead, whose set consisted of song, yo Manchester, song, yo motherf$$$$$$s, yo ......ad nauseum. Thankfully, Metallica were a wonderful surprise.

Just remembered a great support act Bob Log III. Supported Franz Ferdinand in Bradford in around 2005. Also The Kills supported that night so overall a good night. Not sure how that slipped my mind

Saw Japandroids support The Gaslight Anthem on Saturday

Superb band

The two that pop into my head are Bon Iver supporting Iron and Wine in London in 2007/8 I think and Three Trapped Tigers supporting Deftones last month.
