This song is about a fan who told all his friends about the band and how awesome their shows are (Local H has a reputation for putting on amazing live shows), only for the friends to be disappointed when the band goes through the act halfheartedly. What follows for the fan is embarrassment and ridicule ("All the kids, they hold a grudge, you've failed them and they won't forget it").
The line "What the hell was wrong with Joe?" refers to the drummer of Local H at the time, Joe Daniels. Unrelated to the song, Daniels left Local H after their label merged with another company, leaving the band without a label for Pack Up The Cats. Local H was on a three-year hiatus while frontman Scott Lucas looked for a new drummer to fit the band, eventually choosing Brian St. Clair.
