I think there are many that could do to consider what that period must have felt like to live through, and show some respect to those that did.
My daughter complained when we had that cold bit in September so I offered her a hot water bottle The look of horror on her face
Just watching the pride of Britain awards That little lass who was burned in a fire Jesus Christ I’ve got some thing in my eye
Yes. Some people throw the word brave about for things that are nothing of the sort. Brave is the way to describe her. And selfless. Puts the rest of us to shame.
On a different note, did anyone on here go to the Dylan concert at the Bonus Arena last night? I thought it was brilliant, it's a while since I have seen the great man live, the voice was surprisingly clear and the band nailed it. Never thought I would see him in Hull, a coup for the arena management and the city. There can't be any other artist of his era who has their last album played in its entirety as the core of a tour. There can't be any artist whose latest album is good enough to warrant that degree of exposure. Simply great
That was probably the best I've heard a band sound at the Bonus, the look and sound wasn't really what I was expecting, it was great though. Probably the first and last gig I'll ever go to where the performer hid behind a piano all night.
Except when Bob ventured out mid stage and looked a little unsteady before retreating to the safety of his piano! Still we may all be unsteady at 81!
Not too demanding this, a gentle warmup for Chazz's Saturday quiz... https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/s...o-these-24-ex-hull-city-players-play-for-now/
But who goes to a gig, where the artist doesn’t play any of his greatest hits, and plays his latest album in its entirety, **** that, Paul McCartney apologised for playing two new songs out of 30 at Glasto, you know the artist by the hits, I bet 90% of the audience never knew most of the songs, and going on reports I’ve read, it sounded boring as ****. Even Burnsy said it was plodding, £100 to sit on your hands for an hour and a half, ha.
Mr Dylan playing hits/songs known by many, would last until the following Monday. Pandering to his audience is not something that could ever be levelled at him either.
Why should he play 40/50 year-old songs? He played his latest album plus 8 other great songs which fans would recognise. So 'even Burnsy' said it was plodding, is he the great oracle now? I used to think Castro was the curmudgeon of the board, you're hard on his heels!
