Ah I loved the idea of sticking our drinks tab on JBJ. It was a brilliant idea. Gotta say, Chad is damn dirty. And I love him for it. Damn funny!

The only thing that bugged me was how few people seemed to know their songs. It seemed like I was the only person that had heard more than just 'How You Remind Me'.
I was one of those few people that knew more than 'How You Remind Me', i was right at the front of the open tickets bit, and there was a dude with long hair in the golden circle, singing to most of their songs and was looking round for other people singing to the songs, he spotted me and gave me and my mate a big smile, (my m8 told me, i didn't see him). But it was so funny that no-one knew past the well known songs! i was slightly annoyed when someone behind me said, 'there well sh*t, let me know when these f***ers are off the stage', i turned round and pulled them the muckiest mucky i could, and if looks could kill, i would be in jail right now!

your earning your money with comedy? nice joke mate! Live is one of the crappiest live bands I have ever seen. I must say Nickelback was far more entertaining. Whether Live have better records than Nickelback I don't know. Both suck anyway!

I far preferred Nickelback to Live when I saw them in '03. Just more my style of music I guess, Live had the odd few good songs but the set wasn't great overall and I didn't think they were particularly great at communicating with the crowd either. The main problem with Nickelback I thought was that they played the exact same set and used practically all the same punch-lines etc in the 3 shows I saw them. I guess you expect that from support but it wasn't really a tedious kind of repetitiveness as it was still an enjoyable set each time IMO.

I didn't say it was there sound that was the problem. There are just some bands that not everybody like to see live and for me Knickelback are maybe just one of them. It's got nothing to do with the first time that I have seen them or that I may not have know the songs. I knew them all. I am a big knickelback fan(normally).
Their was a crowd of us and most of them thought that they were awesome. I just didn't.
If they do there own gig in Scotland I will consider going and see if that make any difference in my opinion of them.

Maybe I had decided that I would like them before they even started there set. A workmate had seen them the last time that they were here and they day before the Jovi gig told me that he hadn't liked them. Maybe that was in the back of my mind when they started there set.
