redfiona99I knew there was something I meant to write.
Lou Reed was on Jools Holland. And he was chatting to Jools by the piano, and was most cool.
He was being all complementary about everyone else. It was sweet and whimsical as Later tends to be.
He played one track off 'The Raven' or whatever the Poe thing was, called 'Song for Atermisa' or something similar. And then 'Perfect Day'. Complete with his yoga guru (does yoga have gurus, 'cause if not, I've used the wrong word again) doing Tai Chi to it.
Major sign that this was Later, that all seemed perfectly reasonable.
The Vines were on. I like the bass player and the drummer, it's just the singer I want to garotte.
Kings of Leon and Goldfrapp were blah.
McKay (who's new, and does this who slinky, funky RnB thing) was very good.

Oh yeah, and I saw the Metallica Icon thingy. I'm not a 'Tallica fan, but I do wish they'd have left the songs alone. I didn't see Sum 41, but of the people I did see, Korn were the only ones who put up anything like a reasonable performance.
I'm not entirely certain what it was the Avril was singing (enunciate more clearly dear girl), but I'm pretty certain that from what James Hetfield was saying it isn't a female-orientated song. I'm also of the opinion that girls who don't have strong enough voices for me to hear what they are singing shouldn't be allowed to cover metal songs.
Oh and does someone want to tell Lars Ullrich that air drumming to your own songs sets new levels of nerdiness.
