I saw them supporting Dinosaur Jr, Blur and the JAMC in the 90's.
They weren't that great.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 15 May 2012, 21:41, Reply)

It was OK.
It was billed as the JAMC's attempt to do Lollapolooza in Britain, but it didn't take off. The venue I saw them at was half empty. The gig could have been so much better with a packed house.

And JAMC only played for 25 minutes. As was their trademark, I guess.
( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Tue 15 May 2012, 21:38, Reply)

I got a 1 hour JAMC gig in Liverpool
Primarilarly because they had James as support who were better by a long way.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Tue 15 May 2012, 21:42, Reply)

Slayer are playing a 1 hour and fifteen minute set next friday.
I'm almost a bit annoyed at having shelled out £40 for the ticket since I'm not remotely bothered about the other bands on the line up. But still, 75 minutes of slayer is worth it.
(Bazongaloid, Tue 15 May 2012, 21:44, Reply)

Are you going to I'll be Your Mirror to see them?

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 15 May 2012, 21:47, Reply)

Yes. I am.

(Bazongaloid, Tue 15 May 2012, 21:48, Reply)

Me too.
The rest of the line up should be pretty good. I'm looking forward to seeing Sleep and The Melvins are good value too.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 15 May 2012, 21:54, Reply)

The description of Sleep put me off, I'm not much of a fan of hour long albums devoted to weed.
But I like the Melvins, though I don't really know any of their songs that well. I'm just keen to see their stage show as I suspect they are a bit crazy live.
(Bazongaloid, Tue 15 May 2012, 21:56, Reply)

Whereas that appeals to the old stoner in me.
I saw Melvins in 2005 at the Slint ATP and they were great.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 15 May 2012, 22:02, Reply)

Y'see I like that about JAMC
In my previous band we decided to never play longer than 30 minutes (inspired by them).
No one can really be bothered to watch any more than that.
And I fucking hate encores too.

The Cure could carry on for ages for me.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Tue 15 May 2012, 21:50, Reply)

I'm talking generally
There are some exceptions, largely depending on how much you love a band, or what genre you're seeing (three hour gigs are kind of required for space rock bands).
Some bands can carry off a longer gig - Pulp are mentioned up there, a great live band - but most bands could do with truncating their sets a bit.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Tue 15 May 2012, 21:52, Reply)

Depends what you're doing
The thought of a Grateful Dead 12 hour gig bores me.

You get a creative band and I could watch.

Because they're human, Quentin.
It's exactly the same reason that men can't just be nice.
Humans are flawed. Expectations are regularly disappointed. Hopes are regularly dashed.

Frankly, it's a wonder any of us can live with anyone else at all.
