@PeachyKeane, I never said that though! In fact I said in a comment to clarify that some variety would nice but I wasn’t talking about making way for young presenters & kicking out the older ones. I don’t agree with that at all! It wasn’t an age thing- it’s just wanting a bit more diversity & range of opinions.

More stuff has gone up iplayer now: https://www.bbc.co.uk/events/e35wxj/performances#all

Ooh thank you for the link! Much easier to navigate than trying to find stuff on iplayer on my TV 😂

I'm catching up on Orbital. Tilda Swinton is such a legend.

Absolutely loved that set in all its insane brilliance, Mel C too 🥰

Weren’t there people upthread who had links to BBC staff? IPlayer is SO bad it’s impossible to navigate. With all the BBC spend it’s baffling.. Can’t they open up BBC4 and 3 earlier temporarily for events?

Earlier in the days those channels are used for CBeebies & CBBC :) you wouldn’t know it but they don’t use separate channels that close, they swap

I need to know what conditioner the lead singer from the psychedelic porn crumpets uses, his locks are luscious.

AuntieMarys · 30/06/2024 14:48

Dexys were pretty good! Kevin looked terrific

dapsnotplimsolls · 30/06/2024 14:55

Just watching The Streets now - security must have been stressing!

LOVING Balming Tiger, another Korean band, v quirky. Thought Paloma Faith was not v good, her voice was a bit grating.

EachandEveryone · 30/06/2024 15:03

Oh I’m settling in to watch James. Laid brings back such good memories

Appalonia · 30/06/2024 15:03

sugarbyebye · 30/06/2024 11:57

It's a shame they're not broadcasting the early stuff. There's a lot of good things first on.

Agree. Saw Jalen Ngonda in concert a few weeks ago, he was fantastic, such a beautiful voice, like a cross between Marvin Gaye and Prince. Felt like seeing a superstar in the making!

When did Tim Booth turn into Ming the Merciless??

ages ago! He's been repping that look for a while now.

Appalonia · 30/06/2024 15:21

Oh gosh, chap from James is crowdsurfing! Brave 😂

GellerYeller · 30/06/2024 15:21

LOVING James. I’d love to see them live. Kudos for the crowd surfing Tim!

EachandEveryone · 30/06/2024 15:24

I fancy him it’s the hip action😀

I look forward to Janelle Monae later but that’s all I’m bothered about on the Pyramid today

PeachyKeane · 30/06/2024 15:25

They're amazing live, saw them first in 1987, and most recently 2 weeks ago. His crowd surfing is hilarious 😂

dapsnotplimsolls · 30/06/2024 15:25

Brave to crowd-surf face down! This song is making me a bit teary thinking about next Thursday.

Wasn’t it amazing, absolutely brilliant set - but yeah Mike Skinner was up to all sorts heading off into the crowd like that!

He is incredible . A great front man

I hadn't realised Janelle Monae was playing. DD saw her last night in Brixton and said she was amazing.

I am seeing them next weekend!!!

Has something gone wrong with the sound for the violinist in this song? Can't hear it at all.

I desperately tried to give those Janelle Monae tickets away but no takers. Bloody cancer I just couldn’t risk it. I’ve seen her twice at Glastonbury and she’s fantastic live.

its a shame EBTG won’t play live I still love them

IPartridge · 30/06/2024 15:44

Tim Booth is 64! I'm continually bemused this weekend at how old everyone is (forgetting how old I am)

sugarbyebye · 30/06/2024 15:46

Mdou Moctar is bringing the saharan psych vibes. One to add to my spotify playlist. Can't beat a bit of desert rock on a sunday, just a shame there's no sun.

I love James but will watch that on catchup I think, as I'm sure that'll be added to the archives.
