Grassie Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Looked earlier to see what time it starts - 11:20 until 1:45am. Is that shorter than normal? I'm sure it usually starts around 10pm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezbass Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I tuned in and out and because of this it did rather seem that I was watching last year's show: Seasick Steve (I do like him, however); Ruby Turner; Gregory Porter; Boogie Woogie. The only thing that marked it not as a repeat was Dave Swift's choice of bass, an Ibanez BTB 6 stringer this time, if I'm not mistaken.

Ashweb Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I think the outfit was worn to divert your attention away from the lacklustre performance. To my mind she seemed to sleepwalk through most of her songs on autopilot. Must be hard to keep the enthusiasm for a song you've been singing almost continuously for the last 30 years.

Grassie Posted January 6, 2017 Author Share Posted January 6, 2017 Gonna skip Hootenanny next time. Me and the missus have watched it every year for probably 8 or 10 years, but this last one was pòor. We'll be having a party with proper, danceable tunes and loads of alcohol. You're all invited. BYOB. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
