Haven't seen any yet, I was going off them from 2017 and amazed at the guitar and other sounds from his 'bass'. EDIT: Just put it on but it was the BSL version. Brilliantly inclusive!!! She knows it all, does great facial expression and does air guitar - love it!

Well Friday was ok...
Foo Fighters (always good value) Texas - Charlene Spitteri is as amazing now as ever
Arctic Monkeys... did about 20 minutes worth of decent stuff, rest was m'eh!
The Damned, and Billy Bragg were on another stage, but not managed to see any of their performances on tv/or online...
Tonight, Guns n Roses are the highlight for me... saw Axel and Slash in the mid 90's sat in a park in Holland just jamming acoustically to about 100 of us, think they were in the middle of a tour, and having a night off, smashing the local beer!

I might stop watching G'n'R and just have the fond memories from seeing them years ago :(
Shame, as we said Deborah Harry still has it, as do Sparks, but Axel seems a bit like a bad GNR Rolling Stones tribute band singer :(

Axl so low in the mix and the sound guy is doing him a huge favour... Musically great and Slash absolutely brilliant. Arctic Monkeys last night.... thought they started well, then a big lull and then end was OK as you'd expect with those two closers (not a big 'Monkeys' fan).

omg, this is so sad,her set was brilliant

I saw Sleaford Mods, who have worked with posting support for her last night, but didn't know why.
Self Esteem has stepped away from managing a lot of her social media herslef, as although she gets a lot of support, again it's the few bad apples that stick out, and I suppose when you're a largely unknown artist, you do it yourself so see the comments.

Well i quite enjoyed G'n'R, struggled with hearing a lot of Axel, not sure if that was deliberate or not from the sound guys/girls?
Not the voice he once was, but still hit some notes throughout, Welcome the Jungle, was the highlight for me... i know they played a lot of stuff from their less successful albums, and some of Slash stuff...
Watched Chrissie Hind she was also still pretty good, no idea why they called it the Pretenders, perhaps its because the others were pretending to be Pretenders?
Cant believe people raving about Lizzo, I felt like Renee from 'Allo Allo', was looking for some cheese to stick in my ear's!
Didn't catch the name of the young girl who was singing where the presenters were, very soulful, a touch of the Adele about her, and Amy Winehouse (but much better), she could definitely be on the Pyramid Stage.
Rick Astley, have seen him before, he is a great crowd pleaser entertainer, loved the Smiths Cover he did later with some other band i'd not heard of.
Manic Street Preachers, saw them at Beautiful Days a few years ago, whilst not really a band i would pay to listen to, they were were really good.
I know Norman Cook/Fatboy Slim was on late last night didnt manage to see that, so will have to hunt it down on iPlayer/Catchup... also need to find Paul Carrack as he was on yesterday also... if only in the hope he did 'Living Years.
Today is all about Blondie for me...
My next gig for real, is Hyde Park in two weeks, to see to see The One and Only Piano Man... Billy Joel!
