Badly mismatching bands on a bill seldom works - all of the examples given so far were bound to have ended in disaster so should have come as no surprise to anyone. The path to hell is paved with good intentions - it is well known that Fish is a big fan of Peter Hammill so having him open for them was a gesture of good intent - I suspect that part of it was an attempt to publicly say: forget Gabriel, this is who inspires my singing, but it was a mismatch of musical styles that probably wouldn't work today, let alone back then. |

Phideaux maybe not, but many have come over to his Electric Castle in the past 10 years to record their bits. And others for their own projects as well.

Very poor behaviour. I'm seen many support bands varying from one who actually got cheered back on for an encore (Bare Naked Ladies) to some very poor ones (who shall remain nameless) but I've got too much respect for musicians to do that. If you don't want to listen then don't, but don't boo them.

Although I don't hate bands for not supporting younger musicians, I think that Smurph hit the nail on the head. Having younger bands tour with them is the perfect way for established bands to show support.
