if this were a real call-in show, an all-too obvious topic for discussion might be “who is the worst live band you’ve ever seen?” I mean, for there are some all-too obvious candidates (Sump, Juliette Lewis & The Licks, Quiet Company, Ween) however what does it mean if you never thought the band in question was any good to begin with? How can you properly measure a performance if you’re already disinclined to like the material or the performers?
so maybe the real worst show you’ve ever seen is someone you otherwise respected or liked who simply shit the bed. Onstage (or in bed). This would be a great topic for this week’s show except a) we don’t have the technological know-how to take calls for a prerecorded show and b) I really cannot stand the sound of anyone else’s voice besides my own. SO YOU’RE JUST GONNA HAVE TO HASH IT OUT IN THE COMMENTS (again).
