    As I was saying to Elbow the other night, Dolly - yes, I do mind if you sing/mime new songs.

    Crowd control guys had a nice bit of coordinated dancing going on during Joline.

    Meanwhile, several crowd surfers were injured - sales of pink cowboy hats plummet.

    If the Glasto people are enjoying this, just imagine how Richie Kavanagh would go down over there. Maybe it's better if we keep him for ourselves.

    Kenny Rogers mustn't have been available for Islands in the Sun. Or Rob Brydon.

    Good song.

    Ah, of course. Island in the Sun is a Weezer song (which Dolly has never covered, alas!)

    And good evening to you, Ellie :)

    And good evening to you, Ellie :)

    Was she watching old videos of Madonna? :eek:

    She's doing a good set tonight, in fairness. I don't think I've ever seen her live before.

    Dolly doing a set of Weezer covers I'd watch.

    Dolly doing Dolly songs , not so much.

    Wow, she was actually 'trekking' :D

    Haven't seen that dance move since it was popular for one week back in 1990 :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,833 ✭✭✭✭ThisRegard


    She was good.

    As much as I was a fan of Kasabian from the beginning, I'm not pushed about watching them tonight, new album is a bit ****.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,722 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    Ugh...Kasabian :mad:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,833 ✭✭✭✭ThisRegard


    Their earlier stuff was good. Watching it now anyway, crowd pretty into it, sound is good.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,749 ✭✭✭✭grey_so_what


    I love the way the girls on the strings are wearing skeleton outfits, great sound in fairness....:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,833 ✭✭✭✭ThisRegard

    Yeah, there's a great deep sound and I'm liking the arrangements with the strings and the odd trumpet here and there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,749 ✭✭✭✭grey_so_what

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,444 ✭✭✭✭Skid X


    Kasabian always do a good show. Nice and lively for a Sunday Night, that's what you want when the energy levels are low (at the festival) .

    What's happenin Grey?

    Was wondering where you've been.

    As far as Summer is concerned, I can't remember anything before the football...seeing pitches in my sleep...

    Looking forward to a bit of normality next weekend!

    Saw them live when they first hit the scene with their first album in Spirit as it was then on Abbey Street, ears were ringing for hours afterwards but it was great fun.

    Just noticed that the volume control on the iPlayer goes up to 11, ha.
