I’ve just watched the whole set, best act I’ve seen so far I think including crowded house!

She's absolutely proving she deserves to be on the line up. And yeah the band is stellar, some brilliant Gretsch shredding on the go

Enjoyed Plant much more than expected. JS McPherson on guitar I think. Also Viktor Krauss? PLus, unexpectedly, a Calexico tune

I aim to watch Plant tonight, I'm going to guess the 'Calexico tune' was Inner Flame by Rainer Ptacek?

I'm a big Giant Sand/Rainer fan and Plant helped with the tribute album named after that song. I don't know if Calexico have released it, but Joey and John were the rhythm section for Giant Sand  and Rainer was Howe Gelb's best friend.

She put on a great show; the crowd loved her and her guitar player played a tasty solo.

Big Thief are fantastic. UFOF is a masterpiece.

Noel Gallagher really is boring.

Drummer was awesome.

Nowhere near as boring of the predictability of someone saying something like that.

For a boring act he is doing well playing the slot before Paul McCartney and tens of thousands of people singing his songs back to him

Enjoyed TLC and Plant's still got it!

Oddly enough now that Robert Plant can no longer reach those upper registers he's a better singer in my opinion because of it. He's obviously looked after his voice but as a singer gets older they lose the top end. If you ever saw Zeppelin live then Plant used to ruin songs by all the screaming and wailing and over indulgence and could become tiresome. He was obviously reined in on the studio albums, which is just as well, as Zeppelin wouldn't have become my favourite band of all time. As you say @crosstownvamp he's still got it and Plant and Kraus has been the high spot for me so far. It was a graveyard shift unfortunately and I think the audience might have enjoyed it more when they were mellowed out a bit more at the end of the evening when we lost the light. Alison Kraus' stuff with Union Station is worth checking out. She's a superb talent.

Wet Leg looked liked they'd only just started playing guitar a few days ago! 
(did anyone see the white sticker labels on the side of the singer's fretboard?

Real buzz about them though - and somebody's got a talent for songwriting there... (kinda Elastica meets Wicker Man vibe going on there as well).

And let's be honest - Dry Cleaning is a crap name for a band.

Yes but she's learned that all important F barre chord and could play it all over the neck. What a waste of a telecaster. I'd have confiscated it.
