I missed Joy Crookes set today, does anyone know how i can find it on iplayer.
Saw quite a bit of her this afternoon and I must say she looked like she was really enjoying being there and connecting with the crowd, I do prefer catching these non mainstream artists rather than watch headliners go through their greatest hits albums yet again.

Odd one really, fans go to concerts/ festivals and only really want to hear all the artists old big hits, yet if you went to an arena to watch a comedian you’d come away feeling short changed if they just went through their repertoire from 20 or 30 years ago.

As for Billy last night, was she singing all her tracks live without any backing track help?

Amazing! McCartney sounds like an 80 year old. Thank the lord the crowd knows the songs. Well, some do.

Still, should stimulate sales of the back catalogue which are brilliant. I do love Venus and Mars.

I'm no fan of Macca and whenever I've heard him in recent times he's invariably been out of tune but for an 80 yr old he's doing a fine job here...... although he is slightly helped by the vocals not being prominent in the mix

Far better than I expected to be fair, enjoying the set so far

Exactly what I was thinking, his vocals are quite low in the mix.
Very suppressed but as an actual closet Wings fan, I can hear the actual track in my head, which is just as well.

I always thought the idea was so that you can find your mates again.

Nobody wants anecdotes.

Not a fan of Macca but he's doing OK for an octogenarian. Although he seems to be as plastic as Dolly Parton.

Macca doing a good job of it. Can't believe he's 80, looks younger than he did a few years ago!

At least he's stopped dying his hair but yes, he is in tune and most of his songs are very high so, fair play.

Really? He doesn't look like he's had any plastic surgery to me (unless I'm mistaking what you mean)? fking hope I look as good and can do my job as good at 80 I'm telling you!

I've just realised the ridiculousness of what I said. I can't remotely do it now and I've got another 15 years to go...
