    I was all set you slag off ZZ Top, but they’re actually alright. They could do with the bass player actually playing the base, though; rather than playing the lines on a keyboard.

    The drummer seems to have got hair dye on his face when touching up the beards.

    I only like concerts in the dark, but there’s s certain magic when you get that sunset/twilight combo at Glastonbury

    I’m a big fan but this is a bit underwhelming.

    edit: ZZ Top I mean.

    edit: so far.

    That goes for all outdoor gigs, but agreed.

    @ plop.

    Well I’m coming from the other direction, so we’ve probably hit on the same conclusion 😆

    They messed up there lol.

    ZZ Top were rifftastic, as expected. Dusty is recovering from a shoulder injury, and so having trouble with his bass.

    The Reverend Willy G still turns out some superb guitar work, and that guitar he was playing was stunning!

    Got Muse set to record to watch later on as well.

    Yep, he can play some, but not all of a gig, so he’s got a custom bass keyboard set up. Complete with keyring!

    Been watching the red button. Some funky Russians with the lead singer from The Fine Young Cannibals on vocals.

    Brilliant throughout the early-mid naughties, then turned to sh1t IMO.

    Was a big fan 10 years ago.

    Yes.

    And that’s a good thing! Watching live and it’s gooooood.

    yes, but with really good jackets.

    They don’t contain quite as much wankery as the classic prog bands, or even modern bands, such as Tool, but you could probably describe them as a commercial prog band.

    I liked that Christine & the Queens woman gyrating on the grass.
    But that reggae band? What was the point in that? It’s like a rock band coming on and playing Bill Haley covers. ugh.

    White Denim on the red button. Awesome as always.

    Never heard of them but caught last 2 songs on iplayer – was captivated, they are something special I’m quite gobsmacked by it! Underworld atm, making me smile a lot. Karl’s in fine voice.

    Always been a bit of Queen in the newer Muse stuff. Not necessarily a bad thing, but I do prefer the earlier work. As said before, Bellamy is a quite astonishing guitarist at times, especially considering he sings too.

    They sound HUGE.

    Thanks for the tip on Underworld, I was waiting for them to come on scheduled TV after Muse. Cannot wait to see them at the end of July. Glad you liked White Denim.
