    Hang on....apologies, I got it wrong
    Born a woman, but now identifies as a man and uses male pronouns.
    That's why all references are "he" or "him".
    Now goes bt the name "Chris".

    Not bad for a 77 year old

    Thought they were dreadful. Time to stop, Debbie.

    However, Blossoms and Astley performing the Smiths is a thing of utter beauty. Self-deprecating, not taking themselves too seriously and just enjoying performing some classic guitar songs....

    She was excellent for a 77 year old.

    Obviously her voice wasn't as strong, but she put in a good shift there like.

    And she enjoyed herself.

    Put it this way, she performed 10 times better then Diana Ross did last year...

    Tied with Kylie for 'least likely to listen to live again'.

    Not a massive fan of Lil Naz X, but he's ****ing ballsy to be so 'out' as a black rapper. Far better to listen to than the likes of Kanye who was utterly turd when he played there.

    Saw Blondie about 4 years ago and they were pretty good. Debbie Harry’s voice still carried then, but could barely be heard today, not sure if it was her or bad sound mix.

    Aye Lil Naz surprised me, right about him being ballsy too.

    Can’t get away with Lizzo mind, not bothered about the image I just don’t think she’s very good.

    *edit - second song was way better than the first one vocally

    I can't abide Elton John, bumped into him once at Nice private airport, and always thought he sounded like a pub singer ...

    ... but I'll be watching to see what his show is like.

    I'm expecting a Kylie style performance with lots of shouting 'Glastonbury', heavy backing to disguise his voice and soppy guest appearances with tears, hugs and kisses.

    Or am I being cynical ...

    ... who likes him and why.

    Can't stand him but he is a good showman
    - he struggled to make it across the stage there

    I won't be watching, can't think of one song I would want to watch him sing.
    If my life depended on it I could maybe tolerate Pinball Wizard.....second thoughts, nah, I couldn't.
