Sky Arts and other music related programmes

Just checked, I ought to be able to get it. But I still can't despite retuning ect. Hmmm.

Yesterday 9pm on Together TV channel 136 on Virgin “Swinging London session musicians”, a one-hour treasure trove of characters and anecdotes, replete with atmosphere and with significant input from the wonderful Mo Foster.

Very  highly recommended.

I actually caught this by accident last night, excellent programme!

Was on Freeview channel 83 here - worth keeping an eye open for it as these channels often 

seem to re show stuff at random times.

Saw this on Irish TV a couple of weeks ago. Its a must see for any Gallagher fan, or those who might have a passing interest. An incredible talent.

Sky Arts tonight Friday June 21st, 8pm to 9pm.

 

Crowded House, Isle of Wight Festival 2024.

[diskwave]

[vbance]

I hope they show Wunderhorse from the big top stage at some point, stage time 2110.....fingers crossed.

 

[Mickeyboro]

I met one of our number today, PAJ Hartley, who is playing the Festival with Steve Young. Wonder how many chatters are there/participating?

Seen the BBs a couple of times, and they are superb.

The Darkness at IOW currently on, as good as ever

[steantval]

Really looking forward to Crowded House, always really liked the band, sadly very disappointed with this performance, musically it was ok, unfortunately Neil Finns vocals were flat and pretty dreadful, turned off after three songs.

Another one of my favourite bands that are now well past their best, I was surprised Neil Finn is only 66, not particularly old and appears to be struggling vocally, it just highlights the high level the vocals and harmonies were when the band were in top form.

I remember seeing the unknown Darkness supporting Def Leppard. Couldn’t work out if they were a proper group or a Bad News type pisstake. Come to that, I still can’t…😂

Yes, played very well but for a short set they could have put more “bangers” in

I missed that. I wouldn't mind seeing it again if they repeat it. But it is not on tonight's schedule .Do they often repeat these shows on Sky Arts ??
