Seriously, there has been a lot of discussion about this kind of shit on these forums. What I don't understand about people who keep yelling for Brand New to play YFW songs or Thrice to play their old shit all the time....
Why don't you look up a fucking set list before you go to a show?! I do it all the time, and if I absolutely hate what is being played, I simply won't go. I swear that for 90% of live performances, there are set lists floating around on message boards somewhere (including here). If you don't like what's being played, don't go.

sorry. I just went to a Manchester Orchestra show the other day where they played a bunch of new stuff, and I wanted to fucking knock off the kids face next to me who kept screaming Colly Strings.

sure, that can be really annoying, but complaining about complaining is probably just as annoying.

haha, I will not deny that. It just sucks when someone screams it in the middle of I Can Feel A Hot One and ruins the song.

i agree with this guy
when i go to underoath shows there is always one or two kids who are like when the sun sleeps and its like there not gonna play that
or thursday they say dying in new brunswick
very few times has a bad changed a song due to a kid yelling it
and it only happens at smaller local venues

The only thing that is really annoying at shows, for me, is when people think that there won't be any pushing/shoving/sweating/knocking, etc - and they turn around and look at you as if you were the culprit behind a room full of 2,000 people enjoying a show.

I drunkenly yell at every band to play freebird, but they never play it.

it'd be interesting to hear your reasoning on that. Just because a band is listed in my profile interests doesn't mean that I think they are incredibly talented or put out mature music...I simply may enjoy them. Nor does it mean that I don't have appreciation for the bands that aren't on that list. But 'even' it is, considering I know nothing of your music taste and you know nothing of mine.
At any rate, I just wish ignorant people would maybe research the band, before they are going to a show, whether it be in what they are currently playing on tour, or possibly (if they haven't listened in a long time) their musical progression with time.

lol, I know that one. If you go to a Deftones show, and you're up front....know what the fuck you're getting into.

It's even simpler than that. If you didn't like their last album, don't go to their show, since that's the album they'll be touring.

True. Maybe it's more of PSA to those who do this kind of stuff at shows than a thread. Woooops.
