For very bleak "going through the motions" nonsense, I give you Crowded House at the Centre. I cannot even remember even roughly what year it was.

Badly Drawn Boy, during At The Edge Of The Sea 2011. I'd quite liked The Year of Bewilderbeest when I'd heard bits of it, so got close to the front. Bad mistake. He is certainly no entertainer, put nothing into it and was rude to boot and after 5 minutes my wife said she'd have to kill someone if we didn't leave. Turned round and the main area was deserted and the bar was rammed. Stood next to some girl begging for a ciggie - she hadn't smoked for 7 years but said Mr Gough had driven her to it.
Right up there with the time I got conned into seeing Simply Red.

Saw them at reading Festival in 2014 weren’t fully nude, but they were in their pants and they were in the crowd all in all very odd experience

I went to a Soft Machine concert at the Dome sometime in the late 60s and my ears rang for three days afterwards. For that I was near the back and thank God I wasn’t in the fromt row ‘cos they would have been bleeding.

I was down the front at Monsters of Rock, Donington in 1988 but decided it was getting too manic and headed further back. Sadly, only a short while later, two fans lost their lives when Guns N Roses came on stage and they were crushed at the front
