Sucks for the people that paid $400-$500 for floor seats on day 1.
One of my most memorable live shows was a Brian Jonestown Massacre show where Anton Newcombe, the lead singer, showed up very late and clearly intoxicated. Halfway through his set, someone through a water bottle at him. He threw a fit an then stormed off the stage.

I went to one of his shows a few years later. Anton had totally cleaned up and was walking through the crowd. He stopped and chatted with me and my friend for a bit. Now that he's cleaned up, his drug fueled antics can be looked back on less tragically.
