I started to write a review of Banquet’s Big Day Out
Then I realised I was just talking about how shit Wheatus were and not mentioning anything else
So here’s all you really need to know
Wheatus are not a good band. You may love Teenage Dirtbag and let’s be honest, who doesn’t?
But the band it came from are truly, truly awful.
Their brief taste of fame 12 years ago has left them overconfident and arrogant.
The Chester-from-Linkin-Park-Look-A-Like who fronts them started the set by saying “We aren’t a setlist sort of band, so what do you guys want to hear?”
Then got pissed off when everyone said “Teenage Dirtbag” by saying “Oh come on, I thought you were a music crowd”
It was a music crowd Chester, don’t get pissed off because you only wrote one halfway-decent song in your fucking 17 year career you absolute toss piece.
And drinking whiskey on stage only works if you’re Seasick Steve, or at least not wearing all red with your trousers tucked into your socks.
Their fault for assuming that people:
A: Actually know other Wheatus songs apart from Teenage Dirtbag.
B: Think they know another Wheatus song before realising it’s a Weezer song.
They actually covered a Weezer song
Awfully
