Quite impressed by Fred Again. Excellent grooves…
Never heard of them before.
Would have thought Warpaint would be your cuppa, John Peel now
Sparks quite poor, imo.
Yes, the new stuff is only OK. Now on the hits and has picked up.
Seems billy nomates has been getting some abuse

Hope the Arctic Monkeys pick up a bit. Lame so far.
That’s a real shame, she’s always been such a trouper.
It takes guts to walk on stage, press a button on a laptop and just go for it.
Yes,was watching her earlier and thinking it takes balls to walk onto a massive stage with no props
Overly contrived so far.
Yep, very poor /boring. I’m out.
I’ve gone for kellis now hot chip
I’m quite liking the way the lead and drummer look like they are reinacting the Godley and Crème Cry video
Artic Monkeys are only headline acts in the imagination of their agent.
I had big expectations for the Monkey’s set. Been a bit boring so far, they really need to lift things a bit.
The local police recently closed roads around Ashton Gate stadium when the Arctic Monkeys played there. I now realise this was to control the droves leaving early.
There’s a faux theatrical gloom, going on, I guess it’s designed to be ‘cool’ but It’s joyless and self conscious. Like a plastic Nick Cave and thin white duke pretending to be from Sunset Strips underbelly. The crowd seem OK with it but from my sofa it’s like watching a film you want to be good with the growing realization the director is having a screen wank and I’m the tissue.
Should have been Right Said Fred.
A perfect summary.
FoL2 seems to be enjoying them. Seems a bit flat to me, but I’m sure they’ll ramp it up for the last few songs.
I’m trying to decide if Alex is deliberately trying to look like Clint Eastwood in the Dirty Harry films.
