Glastonbury

Been flicking through the channels tonight and first of all found Primal Scream. Now I love Primal Scream, but it took me half a song to even recognise Country Girl, they were rubbish. But never mind cos I have never laughed so much as I did at the Rolling Stones. Honestly tears were running down my face. Charlie Watts looks like he has been wheeled out of an old people's home, and popped behind a drum set where it all comes back to him. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards look like a couple of old queens. Ronnie Wood is the only one who looks remotely sane.

But then sanity was restored cos I found Johnny Marr on the red button 8-) 8-)

Red Button coverage has been far better than BBC2 and BBC3.

It does not have the opinions of da presenters, just the music.

Apart from catching one Elvis Costello song this afternoon I haven't seen any of Glastonbury yet. I looked at the running list yesterday and there was less than four hours of music that interested me over the entire festival.

I was quite interested in Elvis Costello, but couldn't find him. Was he any good?

We've recorded some and will probably do the same today, no doubt will skip quite a bit.
I quite like just tuning in to random acts I wouldn't necessarily choose :)

Tim, who used to play drums, was very impressed with Example's drummer

He was, from what I saw anyway.
I was hoping to see Public Image Limited around about now but can't seem to find them on anywhere.

Mmmmm love a bit of Mr Marr 8-)

I also thought the Stones were amusing, although tbf Mick IS coming up to 70 any day now, so yes his face is a great contour road map, but hey, if I can leap about like that at his age, I'll be happy :D 8-)
