Anyone else? I tuned in last night and couldn't believe how bad it was! 1975 was headlining and it was so middle or the road.

Maybe I'm getting old but the music was awful!!! So bland. Im early 40s 🤣

What are your thoughts?

I do not like Lulu, but Mick was great and now it’s Ronnie. It’s the 70s again

Can’t stand Lulu. Any interview she ever gives she bursts into ‘song’ although I’d call it screeching.

Had the misfortune to witness her disgusting behaviour towards retail and waiting staff a couple of times (in Marylebone). She is one ugly unpleasant diva.

Real music at last. Knocks the attention seeking crap from yesterday out of the park!

Rod is a vision in fuschia and I loved the homage to Christine Mc Vie. At this stage I think he’s less a guilty pleasure and more just a pleasure

The fuschia is brave. I'd be worried about sweat patches it looks very hot up there.

WillowTit · 29/06/2025 16:53

Most of the singers musicians with rod Stewart do look older imo
Really enjoying rod Stewart, more than I thought I would

I wish his backing singers had been a bit older, not necessarily 80 but it seems a bit unseemly wiggling away with such young ladies.

I think they’re brilliant-a great change from the insipid young female vocalists like Gracie Abrahms etc.

Rod is amazing. 80! His voice hasn't changed at all.

Yes because it was dire 50 years ago too.

I'm more frothed by a rapper shouting death to the idf than any stories hamas tells us tbh.

What about Rod, any good in your opinion?

Saw Lulu when she was a surprise guest with Robbie Williams…

  1. didn’t think she was still alive
  2. oh, the voice has GONE. Couldn’t make out a word she was saying (despite it being Relight My Fire) nor did she have the power to give anything any welly
cannotbetooarsed · 29/06/2025 16:47

Rod Stewart is bloody awesome...am at work so feeling sad I can only see snippets! His voice is still pretty good for a guy knocking 80.
Nike Rodgers later,my two favourite artists ever.

BlueEyedBogWitch · 29/06/2025 16:47

Pretty sure that’s his daughter Ruby singing.

Dappy777 · 29/06/2025 16:45

I remember watching a documentary called "I hate the 1960s," in which various historians and social commentators blamed the '60s for everything that's wrong with modern Britain. It was slightly tongue in cheek, but only slightly. One of them said "For the first time in history, people believed that spotty, ignorant, semi-literate teenagers have profound and interesting things to teach us. They don't."

Sums up Glastonbury for me.

Mick Hucknall and Lulu coming on later!

Ok i will concede hes been the best so far 😬

BlueEyedBogWitch · 29/06/2025 16:43

Rod’s doing great!

Answer please…. Should one be more or less disgusted/ frothing/ shocked/ scandalised/ mortified (insert choice of outrage verb) by a rapper chanting words or by an army that holds the world record for creating child amputees?

To be as clear as I can be.

I'm appalled by what is happening in Gaza as I was about October 7th.. There have clearly been war crimes and Netanyahu should be indicted. It's evil. As was what Hamas did.

I condemn anyone inciting death including that earlier poster.

Do you?
