Twice I've seen The Mars Volta they've been supportless...First time was great, the second time was about when Frances The Mute had only just come out. Lets just say they didn't really try and win the crowd over and would rate it as the 2nd most uncomfortable crowd/band I've seen. Well when you can hear murmurings over the music its a worry
Band I've seen who got the worse reception (unfair to I felt) The Locusts supporting the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
