for me its a personal turn off, when the band not only starts talking about how they wrote and the song and how it means to them but also starts cracking stupid jokes that no one laughs at and only the guy who is trying to communicate is laughing.
on the other hand.
always have a back up plan if something should go wrong during the set.
example, during the set your guitarist's strings burst and he doesnt have a extra guitar so he has to borrow or worst still get in a new string,
the vocalist probably has to keep the audience 'into' the band and not allow them to turn off.
also for the vocalist, if you cant scream please dont.= instant shut down
