Worst Stage Lines

Sign in to disble this ad
Sigh---so many stage lines are lame, trite, cliche and over-used.
.
Here's 2 of'em I really hate to hear:

1."Are you ready to rock? I SAID, ARE YOU READY TO ROCK?"
Gawd--gimme the puke bucket when I hear that.

2. "OK! Alright!"

"How's everyone doing tonight?"

Fantastic, until you started pretending that you give a crap.

"I can't HEEEEEEAR you!"

A musician who can't hear 5,000 people screaming at the top of their lungs. How novel.

I don't usually like hearing that first one either although I will say that Ozzy can pull it off pretty well and I never really get bored of hearing him say it.

"Wow! Look at all of you!" says the famous rock star while on stage before starting to play, to which I retort, "You're a famous rock star you play shows for this many people or more on a daily basis. Don't be surprised."

I saw a band at about 2pm at festival. The lead singer came on stage and announced "I f***ing hate playing afternoon gigs"

It was 12 years ago and I've never bothered seeing that band again.

From the pages of history, The Best of the Worst:

"F*** off! Get off my f*****g stage! The next person who walks across this f*****g stage is going to get f*****g killed!"


For ten points, name the speaker, the recipient of his tirade, and the venue. (Fifteen points if you're under 40.)

The lead singer in my front band regularly asks for a job on stage and once "Shhh'ed" the audience because they were too loud during the intro to our "ballad"... luckily his insanely awesome dancing and stage presence make up for his tactless stage banter... gonna have to talk to him about that lol.
