I watched Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds and they were ok but his voice was to far back in the sound mix meaning his vocals were too quiet - as was the lady playing the scissors 
I had never heard of Yungblud and I thought they sounded like a poor punk revival band. I'm of the age that remembers the Pistols, who were much better at it... However, question for the musicians among us: do you think they had a tape machine playing a backing track? The band was just a drummer and a guitarist yet I could clearly hear bass guitar and some keyboards. Or... is there some sort of computer gizmo these days that generates a bass line according to what the guitarist is playing?
As I mentioned earlier, Noel's set was actually pretty good - I was amused though that the crowd needed some Oasis to get going. The scissors ... I liked that to be fair .. interesting sound.I had never heard of Yungblud and I thought they sounded like a poor punk revival band.

I saw the Pistols last in Brixton Academy on the night it was filmed for DVD et al... That was a bloody good gig ...
Re Paul McCartney
There is a file availlable that shows the performance in a good light
My second youngetrst who loves the Beatles is watching it now and thinks its great.
On a reasonably large 65" screen it looks good and sounds good the comments about the soundmix are interresting on the songs I have seen/heard it sounds quite reasonable
With regards to the wider question of i player. I think the BBc have not done themselves proud.
Considering one of the plans it to move into streaming they seem to be somewhere behind other players
Unfortunately I have not been able to find a source for the Lilly Allen performance ............so far

It's like a slow motion car crash, in fact it actually really sad and what's worse is 'they' will tell her it was an epic performance.doogalman said:

Jesus, it's painful watching Diana Ross murder her catalogue.... like a bad x factor audition in places.
Have to agree. kevinon said:
Years and Years had an eye-popping stage show.
Again, probably not to everyone's taste, but if pop is meant to annoy the Daily Mail; I think Olly suceeded.
Probably not the target market for his act being a heterosexual red blooded manly man but his act is a bit creepy. I'm struggling to work out who his market is.Again, probably not to everyone's taste, but if pop is meant to annoy the Daily Mail; I think Olly suceeded.
Diana Ross must have told them she could still sing, the old girl wouldn't even get a gig a Glastonbudget

Sam Fender played a blinder, and has immense boyish charm was a better show. With zero gimmicks.
