Became obsessed with Andre Rieu and his Johan Strauss Orchestra during the covid lockdowns as his programmes were running constantly on Sky Arts. Sadly during his last two tours it clashed with things I had booked, but today I've bought myself a ticket to see him in Liverpool on Friday night.

Just back from this tonight and it was tremendous. Andre Rieu puts on a great show.
 
Went to see John Power at the Leeds city varieties last night.

Fantastic story telling and performance
 
Heading home from Sefton Park and BBC Radio 1 One Big Weekend

It's on tomorrow but the Champions take precedence for me so I won't be there.

On Friday I saw The Wombats, Natasha Bedingfield, James Hype, Biffy Clyro, Confidence Man, and Tom Grennan (plus surprise appearance from Mel C).

Then today I've seen Ed Sheeran (special guest), Tom Odell, Sugababes, Blossoms, Wolf Alice, and Sam Fender.

Was about £40 for each day and most acts did around 45-60 minutes. Really well organised, especially compared to when I went to Slam Dunk festival in Leeds a few years ago.

I've seen him once, and he was shit. I'm quite a fan of his music, but this was the laziest button pushing ever seen at a festival. On a bus is the right place for him.

Yeah he's created some great songs over the years for sure.

Was at Radio 1 One Big Weekend and one of the actual acts was James Hype who was a dj, genuinely no clue how he was any different to the radio 1 djs playing songs on the main stage between the advertised acts. It's just turning the faders up and down a bit.
 
Calvin Harris' consistency in releasing one incredible track every exactly five years and absolute dross in between is bizarrely impressive

Hearing One Kiss was the only way I knew the bus had arrived, I could see FA 😂

I was listening to the The Late Challenge this morning. Gareth Roberts was saying there needs to be a conversation around Liverpool and Pyro.

Yeah I think it's time has passed, was good fun when it was the odd thing but now everyone is doing it it can become overwhelming.
 
Great to see Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band performing at Anfield tonight. Nearly three hours of rock n roll!

Amazingly it's the first time Springsteen has actually played Liverpool after over 50 years. Was just a magical night.
