WS_Jack_III Posted August 16 Report Share Posted August 16 Did anyone see her this year? Unfortunately she was part of clash hell for me and I missed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurdy Posted August 16 Report Share Posted August 16 Caught the last three tracks including the bit with Billy Bragg. She was ace and well received by the crowd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoyed her too, she put a lot into it as always. 1 hour ago, WS_Jack_III said: Was she doing her usual act or now with a band? The usual, I saw more things than I typically do in there and most of them had a modest band if any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, I've just seen a video on YouTube where she performs 'Balance is Gone' with a band and it claimed she's touring with them later in the year. The performance was alright but lost a lot of the energy of her usual style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gigpusher Posted August 16 Report Share Posted August 16 Yes I caught the whole set and the only person who joined her was Billy Bragg at the end. I thought she was fantastic as always. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's certainly possible my judgement was "clouded" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A video from somewhere else, I just wondered if she had a band at Glastonbury too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has she ever done this before or do we think it's a response to the criticism? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furq Posted August 17 Report Share Posted August 17 1 hour ago, clarkete said: Oh. In my mind that would only reflect very poorly on the abusers. Indeed. She probably felt terrible for a day or two, but she (rightly) got an incredible amount of support from fellow performers and the public, and loads of free publicity. A net gain, in the end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WS_Jack_III Posted August 17 Author Report Share Posted August 17 I think a few of you are missing the connection I'm seeing. She got lots of abuse for singing to a backing track and is now doing a tour with a band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
