Black Sabbath - First time they were great, second time they had major technical problems with the sound which could not be rectified on the night.

Gary Moore at St David's Hall - the balance of the sound was all wrong. The bass was far too loud, which meant that all GM's solo's were drowned out. Me and a mate even went to a different part of the auditorium to see if the sound was better. It wasn't.

Rainbow - Yet again Mr Blackmore was a great letdown live. Played for himself not his audience.
Agree about Clapton.
Saw him at an outdoor concert in Dubai about 4-5 years ago.
Came on, started playing, went through his set and said goodnight at the end.
Did not say one word throughout the set and no song introductions.
His playing was great but the whole concert seemed dull and uninteresting
