Is this the first time a song has been performed 2 years on the bounce by 2 different headliners (live and let die by the way) 

Performed in 2022, outright butchered in 2023. 

[Calvin Klein]

voice in rocket queen is a mess. seems like the sound guy is just playing with faders 

[jparx]

They sound great on the tv. Crowd seems a bit lost outside of the hits but I’m sure it’s loads of fun there in the pit.

[LoraMaze]

I don’t think he’s sounding as bad as he has been recently! They’re smashing it!

Rose sounds as good as he has in a LONG time. Civil War sounding mahoosive here

I am loving this. It's brilliant. 

[Whizz]

They're performing Live and Let Die again!  They performed this just half hour ago!

[jparx]

I’ve always been in the optimistic camp with GnR, and I always thought they’d be great in the field but pants on tv. Well, I’m very wrong. They’re great on tv too.

I'm not a follower of GnR (so I can't compare how he sounds to previous shows), and I understand aging is inevitable, but he's vearing in to sounding like Herbert the Pervert at times and the sound guy is having trouble staying on top of things.

I do find it funny that AM get stick for playing stuff from the new album, but people seem quite happy about GnR playing B-sides from the Chinese Democracy era...

GnR belt out their classics, all of them, as you’d expect to hear. Arctics skipping a load and then intentionally playing the rest in a way that makes them unrecognisable to purposefully avoid a sing along is the difference.

November Rain into Patience! Getting a bit emotional at this, ngl.

2010 (Muse) and 2011 (U2) - Where the streets have no name

This is good. Axl's voice is a little ropey but otherwise, very very solid indeed.

Not sure what that Velvet Revolver cover was about though, mind. Axl attempting high notes on a song in which Scott Weiland didn't hit any high notes.

Yeah seemed a strange choice to try and hit high notes he couldn’t hit on a song that didn’t require them. I thought they’d started playing Sliver especially because it was an easy one for Axl to nail.

[Andre91]

GIMME SOME REGGAE!!! 

[FloorFiller]

Only a brief shot of it when they lit it up but doesn’t look like their crowd has depleted much at all and is still right up to the back, which is a surprise, even with them nailing the performance. 

[neil999]

Flawed,but think they are nailing it...listen to the crowd singing back...

[broken monkey]

In the crowd now and they’ve nailed this. Crowd has remained enthused and the big hits have been spot on. So much better than AM last night.

I've just come from Loyle Carner and walked through the middle of the Pyramid with absolutely no issue. Camera must be doing them massive favours. you could play 5 a side in the gaps

Fair enough. Was an incredibly brief glimpse of the crowd being lit up. Not the embarrassing only up to the sound desk type crowd some were predicting, anyway.

Rina a must watch for early 00s pop/nu metal banger nostalgia fans. Bonkers amount going on on stage for a non headline festival show too.

The nu metal thing with her feels a bit forced. A bit like MGK or Yungblud doing "pop punk".

Was never going to be a perfect headline performance, but a massive, massive improvement on last night's dirge.

Just a fact mate, I was a bit shocked tbh. I'm enjoying the last few tunes now
