Best song you ever heard in a concert when the headlining band got mad and walked off after one song by the opening band.

Kind of specific but the Black Crowes walked out after one song after this band opened up for them.

Never had that happen. The only time I've seen someone walk off the stage was Ariel Pink. He opened for Slint at the Brown Theater. After a handful of AWFUL songs with a crowd that couldn't have cared less, he just went "Boy I'm tired, I might just call it a night" and the audience started cheering so he walked off

Apparently their crew was backstage smoking pot and the cops came back there. They got mad and walked out. Came back out about 5 minutes later and gave this long speech about how they came to give us the gift of their music and now the cops were hassling them. Ranted on for a minute or so and walked off and never came back. It was at Louisville Gardens in the early 90's.

I saw Elvis Costello at a Jai Ali fronton in Bridgeport CT back in the early 80's, Imperial Bedroom tour. Left after 3 or 4 songs. Came back half hour later.

Tom Petty was so high in a show in Jersey on his Southern Accents tour, he just kept flipping the bird and mumbling. Lasted a half hour.

Since then, eff him.

walked out of The Police... they were so goddamn boring.

Saw Neil Young in the early 80's at Commonwealth Convention Center. He played a set with just him, his guitar and harmonica. Played about 8 or 9 songs. He took a break and was coming back with the full band. Apparently had food poisoning and never came back out. What I saw was great though.
