Hi all,

Just thought I would give a "heads up", that on Thursday 18th June at 9m on the Sky Arts 1 channel, there is Neil Young & Crazy Horse performance. I know there are a lot of NY fans on here, from the recent NeilFest!!

That Sky Arts 1 is some channel - it's the first thing I check every time I put the TV on now, as it seems to have gem after gem. It's fantastic.

You are right Greeny, it is one of the first channels I go to as well. The Songwriters series and the Classic Album series are always very good, as well as some vintage live performances on most days to. The channel is a music lovers dream!!!

I loved the Albert Hammond songbook show. He showed himself as a true (and slightly unsung) songwriting hero. As opposed to the one on Martin Kemp from Spandau Ballet!!!! He kept harping on about 'True', as he didn't have any other worthwhile material to talk about!!!!

Isle of Wight festival yesterday was broadcast on the Intrawebthingy. Was good. Even Simple Minds were OK. Very dated, but still OK. NY was headlining.

Missed that bit though  :(

Regards.

I must be getting old - I was watching the IOW festival, and all the bands were total sh*t. They'd have been better off worrying about how to play live and the quality of their music instead of how good they look on stage. Something seems to have happened where image is now way more important than the songs or craft of music. But like I said, maybe I'm just a cynical old man, lol.

And the coverage itself was AWFUL. The presenters were just vacuous, wannabe trendy f*ckwits.
