neilb Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Yes, yes, I know its not on for several hours yet but i thought Id be cheeky and start a pre emptive thread as JH shows always seem to raise discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Well, I'll be full of Cava by then, Kylie and Roger Daltrey are on so it's safe to say I'll enjoy it to the full. I always nearly do.

ezbass Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Can't say I'm enthralled by the line up, but I may tune in for a sneaky watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stingrayPete1977 Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 (edited) Shall we also pre-empt a discussion about Dave Swifts fanned Dingwall frets? Edited December 31, 2010 by stingrayPete1977 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Initial thoughts... 1. Aguilar rig behind Dave Swift 2. My god, is that [i]really[/i] Alison Moyet.?? Wow! 3. Bellowhead get better every time I see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captain black Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Gilson Lavis, How good is he? God, Wish I played alongside that Bu++ger! That is some rhythm section tough. Absolutely first class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played opposite Jools' band a few times,and I think that Gilson has no balls or drive in him. He doesn't swing that much either.

tauzero Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 So, was there anything worthwhile to make me watch it on iplayer or download it? Saw a few seconds of Kylie being a chipmunk and (later) Alison Moyet not being a chipmunk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grayn Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I only caught half an hour of it but that was enough. Most of the acts were loathsome and the sycophantic talk was nauseating, as usual, with JH. Missed Daultrey, unfortunately. There was some nice basses on show, though. The guy in Vampire Weekend, seemed to be playing an Italia. And the house band's 6-string bass, looks amazing. Hootenaney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know that when he was sacked by Tilbrook and Difford, they were genuinely terrified he would savagely beat them up. They actually lived in fear for some time, even though he had made no threats. ps: B.O.T.D.

Balcro Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Well, I saw the line up and wasn't expecting too much. Only saw/heard it from 11.25 up to midnight and then had to rush around separating two antagonisitic cats when the fireworks went off. More fireworks outside than on the box. The whole vibe seemed wrong. Too many slow boring introspective ballads. Alison Moyet, Rumer (only heard her from the kitchen), the Secret Sisters, Ce-Lo Green . The talent may well be there, but I don't need four like that on the same bill. It's New Years Eve people, let's party. Balcro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Nimrod Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 (edited) I thought it was just dull; Kylie was awful, JH seemed on the back foot, there were too many slow songs (Plan B were good), Daltrey was poor (bad choice of song too). It didn't work for me... The Dingwall was worth a look though Edited January 1, 2011 by David Nimrod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niceguyhomer Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Being a fan, I waited for Roger Daltrey and wished I hadn't. He murdered the Blues and it was cringeworthy. I liked Secret Sister, thought they were good and Ce-Lo Green - he can belt a song out. Plan B were good but not my cup of tea. Best bit of the show for me was the Dingwall....and the end.
