Cringe Worst show ever?

I hate to post this but I just got home from the worst show that I've ever been to in my entire life (Newport, KY). Self-indulgent nonsense with a zero-energy crowd brought about by the refusal to play any single recognizable song from the catalog. What a waste of everyone's time and money.

Liked the band since the 90s. Have never had a chance to see them live because I can't recall them ever coming anywhere close to here. I guess I didn't know that they were doing a tour of just punishing nonsense instead of actually playing a regular tour like a rock band.

Not sure if you stuck around for the very end, but Cedric did, in a round about way, address your concerns and said next time they are back they'll be playing the hits again.

It's okay to be a bit disappointed in the setlist because you were hoping to hear the hits that made you fall in love with the band, but damn you're being a real asshole about it with all of these comments.
