Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

You have at least a couple of things that make it not quite the scenario I described in my comment. Yes, warm-up acts are kind of an ad, but they're the pre-show ad. People who watch movies prefer the "trailers" before the movie, not interspersed within it.
And trailers work. Sometimes. Lots of parallels with support acts there.
Secondly, the main band being terrible is not the norm. You went there expecting them to be good and to hear your old favourites, not their new stuff. Maybe you would have liked some of their new stuff if they hadn't been hopeless at everything else as well, but that isn't the main thing you were there for.
Drag has autism. Drag doesn't know if they played new songs or old songs, it was too loud and drag left during their first song. It hurt to be there.
What. A drag?
They are talking about themselves in the third dragson.
