CaledonianGonzo Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Van is due to play after seeming to drop out a couple of years back, but he's too much of a torn faced bawbag to do Sunday teatime. Neil Diamond only did it a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Van faxed in a Sunday teatime gig in 2005. He could do it. And he sounds a lot better these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Winslow's point is a valid one - it looks like someone pretty good is lined up, so need to muddy the waters. And I say that as someone who had a ruddy blast the time I saw Neil Diamond. That said....if they put someone like #RightBaz in the teatime slot and D-Rozzle is actually headlining West Holts later that night you would not hear me complaining. Far from it, in fact.

The Nal Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Yeah a longer greatest hits special guest laden West Holts headliner would be better but she gets nowhere near the same amount of exposure from that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomicide Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 But will he bring Bert with him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 if Rod hadn't already delivered a universally derided headline set he probably would be near the top of any shortlist for this, if he was willing to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaledonianGonzo Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 I saw that in FOPP on Saturday. It does seem to be an official release. Wouldn't buy it, but you can bet I'd stream it. In fact, I just checked Spotify and it's not on there - but it does appear to be there as a bonus album on something she released this year called Pure & Simple.

I did google this before posting and saw that he played in 2002, a year I didn't go. Am a bit surprised at the set being universally derided, but then I guess so were Gorillaz and U2 and I enjoyed both of them…. Aerosmith might be fun too, in the Motörhead/ZZ Top slot.

Badlands Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Saw Reg last night tinkling his ivories at the local enormodome. Whilst he's never likely to take the gig, he'd be perfect fodder for the spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d give him a healthy 7 toupees out of 10. Not really much of a fan and tagged along with the missus and family out of curiosity more than anything but I had a canny night. His band seemed tight enough and he’s got some stonkers in his set. Though it must be said he’s got some stinkers as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
