Yeah. Hot Chip sounds like a perfect ending.

Switched to BBC2 now for Arctics

I know I'm biased but Sparks have been predictably superb. Shame the audience wasn't a bit more lively, but they are appreciative. And getting on a bit

[Punksnotdead]

Oh my days! This Town Ain't Big Enough For The Both Of Us! My favourite song as a kid - utterly joyous. Can't believe that was nearly 50 years ago that was on top of the pops!

[brandycoke]

Sparks not playing 'Never turn your back on mother earth',..absolute sacrilege .

[Serenefishy]

Sparks have some absolute bangers they didn’t play tonight aswell.

That show was good as I recall. Was tempted by the FFS shows at the time but didn't have the cash and indeed recently relistened to their album and thought it was great.

Are we unable to watch Arctics live? Don’t they start now?

We saw The Who instead, regretted it instantly 😢

not being shown until 22:30, presumably so BBC One can show the news first

FFS were great fun in 2015 - good decision I made seeing them instead of The Who! Right after seeing Buzzcocks in Leftfield as well - perfect end to my festival!

I saw The Damned a few weeks ago. New stuff is very much music by old men for old men and all the punk classics have new arrangements to same effect. Great musically, enjoyed it, but the bite has gone.

Same, but will flick around.

 

[Punksnotdead]

I'm genuinely more pissed at this point in the evening than I would be if I was on the farm!

Alex turners voice is screwed. They should have canned the show.

I’m thinking that aswell but I don’t know if that’s me projecting because I know he was ill. Doesn’t sound strong

He sounds fine to me. Maybe at 95%?

Arctic Monkeys very quiet on BBC 1 - just had to whack the volume up on my TV!

[Meerkat]

Is Glastonbury channel not playing arctic monkeys for anyone else?
