Alt-J are awful live, not missing anything there. QOTSA and Phoenix aren't exactly genre mates!

Love that last album Alt J did, so will play once Eltons done his thang.

QOTSA are on fine form, Homme has aged damn well, the beard really suits him.

Did I just see a massive fire in the front of the crowd??

Edit - Maybe not! No idea what tricks my eyes were playing on me

At least the guest for Tiny Dancer wasn't Ironik

Odds on Dave popping in for a track or 2?

He's been everywhere else this weekend.

Rumour has it, some poor bloke was trying to crimp off a length when Dave appeared through the skylight and helped him wipe.

Brandon Flowers looks like a radical preacher at some yank mega church.

Who's that wearing the fishing net?

Elton sounds like Vic Reeves’ club singer.

I'll need therapy now for that mental image, thanks.

Not convinced it was Ru Paul either, but they can do all sorts these days with surgery :cry:

Indeed. They're playing a lot of the newer stuff, which is still good. I really hope they finish off with some more Rated R/Songs for the Deaf/Era Vulgaris though.

You summoned God is in the Radio, good job

You never know - QOTSA and Elton might team up to belt out Fairweather Friends to finish off the night.
