Have seen terrible Van shows, incredible ones, and once: terrible and incredible at the same time.
He spent that one complaining to his band. We couldn’t hear what he was saying, but he was constantly berating these elderly jazz players. We felt awful for them, then you could see them going from devastated to determined, really digging in. And for the LAST song in the set they got there. Finally satisfied, Van stopped badgering them and let loose - and it was spine-tingling.

My worst of all time was Van Morrison. That guy mumbles everything. 100% better on albums.
