What would be a terrible gig for you to attend?

NIMAN

Say someone bought you a ticket for a gig in the coming year, what one would make your heart drop to have to attend?

For me it would have to be Mumford & Sons.

Heard the advert the last few days and couldn't think of a worse one.

Never liked them at all, and didn't seem to have too many hits when they were at their peak. I would imagine the show would be packed with hipsters and beards.

That's just sad. You write off a whole nationality and a whole genre ?
I'd like to know what this is based on, presuming that you haven't heard every single Irish musician or every Rapper.

It's a bit like saying I wouldn't go to see any band that has drums or any singer that's blonde.

Dr Sunshine

Michael Buble

Welcome to Liveline....

Anything involving Bryan/Brian McFadden.

Fair enough if rap isn't your thing but are you seriously saying you don't like any musician(s), regardless of genre, just because they were born or are based on this island? That's bonkers.

Clonmel1000

Sheeran.

PTH2009

Impractical Jokers

Id say it's a load of 'hey who's sober here', 'let's have some Guinness and whiskey guys' etc

Country music gigs

Manowar at the Glasgow Apollo in the early eighties, more laughable than atrocious.

Bublee.

Michael Flatley

ghostdancer

AC/DC, in whatever combination of band members/singers you like.
A gig for people who would otherwise spend their night drinking Bulmers in the same pub as every other weekend before having a fight outside the chippers on the way home.

Muahahaha

Would have to be Michael Buble, if a friend bought me a ticket for him I'd be re-evaluating our friendship

Springsteen - three hours of cliched ‘anthems’. When every moment is ‘special’, then none are.

Followed closely by Bressie. The tedious indie is bad enough, but the earnest well-being advice would send me over the edge.

I'm not the other poster, but I've seen my fair share of Irish bands through the years, many different genres, and I honestly don't think I'd voluntarily see any of them again, and I'm the first to throw my money at something because it's Irish. I don't know why, but none of them have ever really clicked with me.

I've seen my fair share of forgettable bands too, but off the top of my head, Microdisney, My Bloody Valentine, Girl Band, along with new up and coming bands such as Fontaines DC, Just Mustard and The Murder Capital are all brilliant. There's loads I'm missing. Those who say Irish musicians are "talentless" (the previous poster) are wrong

I've seen mbv and fontaines from that list, and I'd be in no rush to see either again. Again I can't describe it, but no matter how early I get in there, I can't get behind Irish bands, but I support LOI, Irish MMA fighters, boxers etc at Grass Roots. But Irish music does nothing for me, always seems like it's trying too hard.
