Am listening to Chic. Damn good.
Brilliant show.
Jeeeeeeeeesus the bass player blowing my mind !
Jerry Barnes. He's something else, even if he is channelling Bernard Edwards genius bass lines.

Vague recollection from a Chic documentary that Nile Rodger's Strat has played on something like $2 billion worth of records!

I listened live earlier and we're watching now.

The best of the weekend for me - the man's just so talented, and surrounds himself with insanely talented people.

...and age hasn't withered him one iota, unlike some this weekend.

Yes, in the presence of greatness, no question.

That tedious, fat, black-haired, dormant goon with the iPhone on stage with Chic can FRO. Energy sucking tosser.

Quite looking forward to Ed myself. The missus dragged me to his gig at Manchester a month or so ago and to be fair, it was bloody impressive considering it's just him on stage. Bloodstream in particular was mesmerising.

Killers smashed it with All These Things and Mr Brightside....Brandon said that 'you do the John Peel stage twice in your career, once on the way up and once in the way down'.....I feel this was a big of a swan song for a fantastic band. The crowd were amazing....must admit I had tears in my eyes singing along with my teenage daughter. Those two songs in particular bring back so many many memories singing along in the car.
Love The Killers, that was the best version of Mr Brightside I have ever heard, Sensational stuff from a brilliant band.
