flicked over now and again to watch it bloody appalling vocals/audio absolute crap watched it tonight to see if Elton was better when he walked (shuffled) onto stage i thought he had shit himself and he was crap after 2 minutes i went and got ready for bed by the time i came back the wife had turned it off she said it was bad

I made an effort to watch all the headliners this year and I'm glad I did.

 

I thought Artic Monkeys were enjoyable but nothing stood out as spectacular, GnR were a proper headline act and although the vocals weren't perfect they still worked and Slash was obviously brilliant and Elton John was a great way to end. An amazing performance and nice to see the hits one last time.

 

Saw a few other bits I liked as well, the Lewis Capaldi performance was a tough watch because he comes across as genuinely trying to keep going.

 

One year I might actually go...

Not an Elton fan at all but after a slow start I thought he was pretty good certainly drew a crowd who seemed to be loving it.

Just catching up on it now. He's a legend for sure, with good reason. Obviously lacking the energy of his earlier years and a bit overblown with being a live performance, but still, pretty good for a 76 year old .
