    Blondie giving it socks from 6 PM, sounding better than she did back in 2010 at RockNess Festival.

    If you want to get into it, you got to get out of it. (Hawkwind 1982)

    Debbie Harry is 78 is two weeks.

    78!!

    It's a pity Chris is too ill to play with them anymore, but great to see Jimmy and Clem still pumping out the bangers.

    Clem Burke is one the great percussionists of the modern age in my opinion. His sound IS new wave.

    Was going to ask where Chris is. Shame. Are my eyes playing tricks on me or is that Glen Matlock on bass ?

    He's a funny auld character is Cat.

    Spreads a message of peace and love in his music and when speaking at his shows, but several times in the past said that Salman Rushdie should be murdered under the Fatwa for his writings.

    Religion eh?

    Wouldn't normally be a fan, but that Editors set was absolutely fantastic. Cracking cover of Seal's Killer too.

    The photo with building is a venue called the meat rack in the Block9 area. Other photo is a newer late night stage called IICON. Big sideways head with crazy 3D lighting projections on it.


    Lana Del Ray was a joke. I should have ditched my friends and gone to GnR instead. Half an hour late because she was getting her hair done, no apology, then just plows on and tries to play the full set and they pulled the plug on her. She needs to get her head out of her arse.

    Leaving aside any dodgy politics, he played a fantastic set, that I hugely enjoyed. Wouldn’t have called myself a fan particularly, but he has some back catalogue. Brought me back to my childhood. I never knew he wrote Here Comes My Baby. Great cover of Here Comes The Sun too.

    Cat mixed some good songs with a lot of very boring stuff

    Dermot Kennedy is em..you either like it or don't

    Seems a good lad though..very good performer. Crowd very low key. Hopefully they engage a bit more...

    And I hope I'm not looking at old coverage 😆

    Didn’t really think so. Dished out all his best known stuff, kept the new songs to a minimum.

    Elton's mobility looks seriously shook. I know he's 76 but didn't realise he was that bad on his legs. Don't think he'll be bouncing around tonight like Axl....

    Strange for a man with his career to start with a cover. Voice sounds good, looked very unsteady on his entrance. This is looking good though, should be a good night with loads of hits.

    This has ‘going down in history’ vibes about it…

    He, and the band sound on top form.

    Bit early for that kind of talk, but it is supposed to be a special set with four different special guests.
