I now see Korn as a massive band, excellent music and spectacular showmen. I was at their gig in the Glasgow SECC on Wednesday, and all I can say is, I now have the utmost respect for the talents possessed by Korn.
It's not every day that you listen to a live band who sound better than their music does on a digitally mastered CD, but Korn pulled it off. A massive video wall in the background played some of their most famous video whilst they were singing, Freak on a Leash still being superbly spectacular.
The show was topped of by a blinding encore with Jonathon Davies sporting a leather kilt and playing the bagpipes, there's no other way to send a crown in Scotland absolutely mad.
As for the support act, the first band were an unknown, Trust Co. and were reasonably good. Considering I didn't know any of their songs before hand, I throroughly enjoyed their set. The big attraction, and supposedly a reason why a lot of people bought tickets was the support set by Puddle of Mudd.
Now, to be fair, I like Puddle of Mudd's music, but as a live act, they weren't too good at all. The band pandered to shocking the 14 year olds in the crowd and left everyone over that age feeling a little annoyed. If, in this day and age, it's good for a rock band's lead singer to ruin every song his band plays by shouting "suck my d!&*", "give me your hate" and loads of other jibberish after every other line of every song, then I must be far too old to go to a Puddle of Mudd concert.
