@Arthur, any love of Jake Thackray?

And BB has joined them on stage a few years back to sing California Stars. The hugging and backslapping seemed genuinely friendly enough.

Disappointed that the Nilufer Yanya album isn’t nominated. It would have benefitted from the wider exposure. Agree that Lil Simz the likely winner though.

I see Jack White has been added to the Park Stage at 6.15. Might be a good concise spot with less time for self indulgence.

Big hit machine, sing alongside. Perfect for the afternoon slot.

Billy Joel.

His Piano mic is much louder

Funny but I think Let Me Roll It is the first time he has struggled a bit with. Great band and playing though

Exactly. It’s not as if it’s Van and Eric coming on

Maybe they’ll insist on cutting out any flat notes

Next year, Elton plays “Island Girl”

Wot! They’re not showing Macca live on iplayer. They must be worried he was going to play “Give Ireland Back To The Irish”

But Eddie, you think EVERYTHING is overwhelmingly meh

Just realised that it was Jason Falkner playing with St Vincent. Very good he was too.

That Norman Wisdom film was an oddity, was it “What’s good for the gander?” Or something like that. I just wasn’t ready for Norman in a sex comedy. Or to have him shagging Judy Geeson (IIRC)

And here is an example of her reflective side on the gorgeous Space and Time (with added Spooner Oldham)

The album sounds quite “one paced” on early listens.

West Ham Vs Liverpool in 2006 was a good see saw ride of a game

That pass was Hoddle-esque. And TAA is nominally a full back!
