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.
