I love Weld - one of my favourite live albums and a proper old school racket.

What utter nonsense

The main point though was environmental impact of that, for what amounts to a few narcissists prancing about on stage and a load of people going to watch, in the eyes of the eco warriors that mostly attend these sorts of events, how can that be justified when the environmental footprint is as big as it is? You've got working class people being charged for driving work vans into London to do actual hard work day in day out, yet these people are paid to bring in this environmental impact? The whole thing is outright hypocrisy.

I'm personally not against events like these, btw. But that's not the point being made.

So the stage crew, sound/light engineers, local crew, caterers, truck drivers, forklifts,  telehandlers, security people etc etc should all do about 10 days graft for nowt then?

He improved as it went on. There seems to be an issue as the opening songs have been a bit dodgy for a quite a few of the acts. John fogerty was also good for 80 years old.
