Sitting at the in-laws hating this. Can’t believe I have to sit through another 45 mins. Just shit. Is it just me?!

I am not sure meglet, will have a Google.

They would have been on the legend Sunday evening slot presumably like the lonely single BeeGee one year. Sad

They are amazing live. The drummer is awesome.

CrispbuttyNo1 · 29/06/2019 23:39

I love the killers and brandon is hot 🔥

superram · 29/06/2019 23:39

I love but thought psb and jm were a good addition. Defo wish I was there (in a luxury air conditioned cabin with vip access yo stages .

You should have just switched over to The Chemical Brothers on BBC four.

Bobobobobob · 29/06/2019 23:42

Get off my mumsnet ..... in a ghost ghosty stylee😁

Pet Shop Pensioners. Utterly embarrassing.

gnushoes · 29/06/2019 23:43

they are SO FUCKING DULL. Not wild about the Chemical Brothers either TBH but they're an improvement.

FleurNancy · 29/06/2019 23:43

LOVE them. So YABU.

RobertSmithdoesmyhair · 29/06/2019 23:43

Brandon Flowers and Johnny Marr doing 'This Charming Man'? It couldn't be any better! Love them!
Drummer is a bit of eye candy too! Grin

Quintella · 29/06/2019 23:44

I hate them too, in a good natured way. They are the epitome of dull corporate rock and it all feels.....so plastic. But lots of people I know really love them and I love people to be passionate about music.

How amazing did Chris Lowe look in his gigantic hat? Grin

YoThePussy · 29/06/2019 23:46

What was really good was the little burst of the new Love Unlimited Orchestra shown earlier today from the Park Stage. Nothing like a bit of Barry White.

Neil Tennant, OMG so old looking, come back that lovely young man with the dark curls.

Cruddles · 29/06/2019 23:47

My wife, who likes generally boring music, said they were shit early on. Been watching Chemical Brothers

DishingOutDone · 29/06/2019 23:47

@Quintella - Mark Radcliffe had it when he referenced Ken Dodd.

WatcherintheRye · 29/06/2019 23:47

There can't be anyone who doesn't think 'When you were young' is a great song, surely?

Sarcelle · 29/06/2019 23:47

I missed half of it, but the last bit, the bit I saw, was amazing. You are so BU.

Sausage01 · 29/06/2019 23:48

Tut! Away crazy people and wash your ears out! Love the Killers.

DishingOutDone · 29/06/2019 23:49

So I love the Killers, I think PSB spoilt it, but not as much as the Killers' drummer stupidly spinning a drumstick into the crowd - what a dick. Johnny Marr's face said it all.

julensaor · 29/06/2019 23:49

I think the music is ok, but what makes them dull is the lack of a rock lifestyle, isn't Brandon mormon with piles of kids, no drink or drugs, no edge to them. We want batboys rocking it out and a bit of drama. (Same goes for Coldplay, good music but the drabbest most uncharismatic frontman in history).

julensaor · 29/06/2019 23:50

*not batboys - batboys ffs

julensaor · 29/06/2019 23:50

*BADBOYS jesus h christ

Better than Janet Jackson - who I’m sure was miming
