wtf .... 30 BUCKS, one band, no opening acts. Show over at 9:00 pm. Then had to leave element by 10:00 ( what, am I 12 years old? ) so another event could start. couldn't even stick around for drinks after spending 30 bills ?? That was the worst money spent ever. - Thu, 17 Apr 2008 12:17pm

wow that's a pretty shitty deal... i was almost considering going(*note: ALMOST) but then there was a hindering thought that it might not be worth the money as i heard there was no openers.... low and behold.
lesson learned: metric alone is NOT worth 30$ apparently. - Thu, 17 Apr 2008 3:41pm

You couldn't pay me $30 to see this band. Nothing gets me changing the radio station faster than hearing the opening notes of a metric song. - Thu, 17 Apr 2008 3:55pm

Shitty. I've seen Metric 4 times... never paid more than $20. And every time I saw them it was because I wanted to see the opening band and just stuck around for Metric cause well it's fun. Actually once I went because I wanted to be with a girl. Other than that I wouldn't bother.

Metric doesn't really suck live or anything. But meh. - Thu, 17 Apr 2008 5:58pm

Conditions that are so shitty and expensive really should come with a warning. I've never heard of metric but it sounds like they prolly suck balls. - Fri, 18 Apr 2008 2:50am

Shit I've seen Metric and I didn't even really like them (not for lame "metal" reasons though) and I paid $30 bucks. To be fair I was blitzingly drunk. - Fri, 18 Apr 2008 10:19am

$30 is pretty steep, considering it's at Element as well... I've been tempted to see Metric live a couple times, but have never gone because in all honesty I really dislike them... a lot. - Tue, 22 Apr 2008 9:15pm

worst show i ever went to for a girl. 3 doors down at DV8 in Calgary.

I couldn't even maintain composure. I tried, but every time i tried to say something like "this is rad" all i could say was "this is terrible I have to go"
I could have vomited in rage thats how bad they were, and i am a patient dude.

By far the worst band i have EVER seen, and that beats out the Smashing Pumpkins. I mean they were tight and everything, but that only means that they tightly sucked.

That could be its own thread "Worst show seen for a girl/boy" - Wed, 23 Apr 2008 12:11am
