Saw them at aclfest. I heard how bad it was at week 1 but thought it was exaggerated because how awesome they were years ago

Went week 2. They were terrible. They looked bored. They didnt play many of the big hits. Like 30 minutes of bored people watching a lot of meh. Then a hit. Then nothing for 20 min. Ended way early (but like 5 minutes later than the previous week)

The last time they played they had the audience eating it up. It was a well crafted setlist. Kedis talking and working crowd. When they hit give it away the crowd went apeshit. 10s of thousands all the way to the back. This time people had just sat there for so long that it was a dud and i was really close to the stage.

I had a bad experience in Dublin, but that was mostly cos of people throwing alcohol constantly and being on coke. It's put me off going to big popular bands tbh, too many going there to just be annoying.
