blew off the stage

From the bio of the group Bang:

I got an email from a guy that said, ‘I’ve waited twenty years to tell you that you blew Black Sabbath off the stage that night”. We knew that we had stolen the show from them. It’s something to have idols that you look up to. It’s another thing to play with your idols. And it’s an even greater thing to blow your idols off the stage!”

The next year, he adds, was Black River's zenith, when the group blew the Wallflowers off the stage (admittedly, not tough to do) at SunFest on ...

"The Meters are in august company with Dave Matthews Band and the Disco Biscuits as bands who have blown Phish off the stage."

As someone with more than a passing familiarity with these matters, I assure you that the last of these has never happened (and don't recommend you perform any independent investigation of same), sound a note of distinct skepticism as to the second, however technically gifted some members of that band may be, and might even raise a question as to the first, however much greater its material (and at least a member or two) may be, given especially the increasingly Decemberist playing of their once-great until-recent keys man - who some in the original incarnation recently replaced temporarily with the keyboardist of... Phish - and the tendency of some of the New Orleans bands to sometimes phone in their standard repertoire.

Though to be fair, in their Behind the Music the members of Def Leppard talked about getting blowjobs offstage during the drum solo, so it might be referring to that.

According to the VH-1 Behind The Music, Grand Funk Railroad blew Led Zeppelin off the stage in Miami in 1971!

counter: "If I listen to our records from that time now, I think, 'My God, we were incredibly good!'" laughs Page. "We really blew everyone else off stage and in that way created a separate status for ourselves in the music world."

I could definitely see this. Fucking Tiny Tim could have blown Zeppelin off the stage at the concert where they filmed Song Remains the Same. Plus Grand Funk were pretty spectacular live.

Zep was still pretty tight live in 71 I think. I'm sure Grand funk was too.

The Van Halen tour is legendary for breaking up the Ozzy era band. The only people that say Bang blew Sabbath off the stage are the guys in Bang. BOC vs. Sabbath would have been a sight to see.

Gentle Giant apparently performed the amazing feat of blowing Crimson off the stage before Fripp and co. came on:

Next up was the surprise of the night. Gentle Giant came out and played the most complex, pristine music I had ever heard or seen performed live. They played about 32 different instruments between the five of them. The roadies stood at the sides of the stage and just threw them instruments constantly. They weren't just blowing "parts", but actually played each of these sometimes "unrelated" instruments on a virtuoso level. All of them played on the drum set at the same time and were completely coordinated musically. The recorder fugues they played, as well as their totally original vocal arrangements were jaw dropping. They performed with incredible showmanship and excitment and whipped the crowd into heights unknown. They totally blew King Crimson off the stage.

By the time King Crimson came out, the audience was completely drained. Robert Fripp the leader/guitar player sat on a high stool the entire night, John Wetton played bass and sang lead vocals, David Cross played the Mellotron and violin and Bill Bruford was terrific on his drumset. Their songs were long and drawn out. They just didn't connect with the audience. When someone hollered out for Robert Fripp to introduce the band, he dismissed the request by saying, "That is not important, however what is important is the name of our next song"

responses very much in characteer

lol just found this whilst reading an acid mothers temple review

"and i will say that the opening band (mammatus) even blew them off of the stage!"

If that was at Bottom of the Hill I was there- that did not happen (though Mammatus was pretty entertaining)

Some great response connected to that, including info on exactly how hard it is to smash a guitar, tricks (and models) to make it easier, tales of failed attempts, etc.

Just watched the clip... I assume those sparks from the amp were rigged beforehand? (What a bizarre thing for people even to be talking about the next day, let alone complaining about.)

I've not seen the "incident" yet, but this made me laugh out loud:

Phoebe Bridgers's recent guitar-smashing performance on SNL has earned her a new wave of fans. Watch her "Diary of a Song" from 2020, where what was once a ballad transforms into a rock song. https://t.co/O3IznQB6wH

"earned her a wave of new fans", really? Used to be (I know I know) one could make such claims after a decade or so, in retrospect.

'Fans' = likes
