each to their own opinion of course...

mine is that Jack Johnson is the most boring, generic, ‘safely blandly pleasant’ music around. it's what American fratboys put on before the crowds show up at their parties. Absolute rubbish.

The only reason he filled Hyde Park is that every American in London (and within an easy train ride of London, especially from the air bases in Suffolk, etc…) was there.

and 8pm on Sunday?!?! …not on the Pyramid ‘special guest’ slot surely!!! i've always thought the 'penultimate sunday pyramid slot' was a special one, what with acts like Roger Waters, Manics, Nick Cave, Primal Scream, Simple Minds, Morrissey having taken that slot. big acts with a long history or even a past pyramid headliner... Jack Johnson wouldn't come close to being in that class. put him on JazzWorld (renamed ‘SnoozeWorld’ for the Sunday only because of him)

And this is not an anti-American tirade…I’m US/Brit dual citizen, and am writing from America...
