really? what's the gist?

 

That it was a mistake to get Jay-Z to open for them as he was better (it's entitled Viva La Hova :dozey:)

 

The costumes are ridiculous, the balloons are butterflies are soppy, the mass sing-a-longs don't make up for the fact that their songs are "debilitating to the soul" and that it felt more like watching an episode of Songs of Praise. Billie Jean was rubbish.

 

It concludes saying:

 

"If even in the credit crunch, the average listener still values live music as an essential pleasure, no matter what the support, well we can take comfort in that - even if we do have to sit through Coldplay to do so"

I got told to fuck off by a former NME journalist on Twitter the other night - he was watching The South Bank Show just to criticise them and I suggested he might use his time more productively :rolleyes:

 

Typical British cynicism... can't the press just be happy that one of the biggest bands in the world is British? Do they want the radio to be full of American rock like it was back in the day with Nirvana & Pearl Jam and every copycat band that came along after them?
