I either wanted to be converted or witness a car crash disaster, but got neither. The "introducing the band" section was like Japanese water torture.<BR/><BR/>Although her entire performance pales into insignficance compared to the agony of being trapped in a people jam during Newton Faulkner's stet. I had to endure his solo acoustic cover of Bohemian Rhapsody, which think may well be the worst thing I have ever heard.Delhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10804947827499336453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16460150.post-90172132975741204992008-07-02T13:50:00.000+01:002008-07-02T13:50:00.000+01:00Istvanski - They don't get it, do they?Malc - An h...Istvanski - They don't get it, do they?<BR/><BR/>Malc - An hour of Winehouse was taking the piss.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340519450159428760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16460150.post-38233333033180406252008-07-02T02:06:00.000+01:002008-07-02T02:06:00.000+01:00Backtracking just a little. . .
