Port Said Red Posted June 24, 2023 Report Share Posted June 24, 2023 (edited) 10 minutes ago, TonyTonyTony said: How talented is Slash? I keep expecting to see Wayne come along on saying "you guys wail" It's impressive but, although I enjoy odd songs, these sort of gigs remind me why I was never a huge raaawwwk fan, similar sounding songs leading into those familiar guitar solos and repeat. Like I always say about those whittering singers who put ten notes in where one was written, just because you can doesn't mean you should every time you get an opportunity.

And Its Smith Posted June 24, 2023 Report Share Posted June 24, 2023 Lana Del Rey 20 mins late for her set as she was doing her hair so they’ve cut her mic before her last two songs. Now she’s leading the crowd through Video Games with no mic. Amazing set from her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Licence is strict beyond 12 tho, especially that side of site. What did your mate think of the set?

I was watching it, and thinking it’s sad watching him like this. Apparently arrived in Bristol Airport today. Like I said he mentioned that he had 3 weeks off recently and said something like "I think I will be taking more, perhaps the rest of the year". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As good as I’ve seen. My daughter was there and said she didn’t care about his voice as the crowd and her was singing. But she said if not singing she was just watching and blown away seeing Slash.

I watched her getting cut off on iplayer, then watched her go to the crowd with them singing her songs, then eventually going off. Pretty sure it was well before midnight. I switched live channel and Christine and the Queens was still playing. Did he have a different curfew time or something?

I thought it was midnight when she got cut but I see Del Rey was due to play 10:30 till 11:45. Same as Christine and the Queens.

Such a shame as LDR has turned down 3 invites to play Glastonbury before now and can’t imagine she will be back in a hurry despite her being the one at fault. Guess she didn’t believe them when they threatened to pull her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the great songwriters whose music isn’t as widely acclaimed as it should be. Still got a beautiful voice as well.
