I've almost *only* heard that he puts on a sucky show. And when *I* saw him 1 1/2 yrs ago he blew. I've told the story here already, but suffice to say he was stoned out of his gourd and forgot what he was doing for most of his breif show. Actually, recently I've been hearing good reviews. Has he gotten better live? Anyone care? Then you said things like:

Um... it pretty much sounds like the show sucked and you had a thoroughly lousy time! You rave about how good the place is and how good the show was, but then you drop the giant boulder of salt which is your litany of awful things which happened at that show. If I had the same experiences as you I would definately forever hate not only the venue but Tricky himself! -Chris Fahey
