He’s probably the number one music journo in the UK so that’s massive!

BBC2 is on if anyone wants a rerun of that incredible end!

No one expected this! Exceptional set!

What a fucking curveball!

Here we go!!!

Best RQ they’ve done since the 80s! Axl amazing at the end!

They’re on fire! So much energy!

Genuinely think the sound is programmed to lift Axl’s low/mid notes and soften the high notes.

Brilliant so far! Some difficult songs to come but the crowd are loving it!

iPlayer! Come on!

Rick Astley and Blossoms my highlight! Come on Axl, best that! Really pumped for Guns!

This is a big moment. Noel and Wet Leg don’t have the issues that Axl has with his voice, nor were they headlining the Pyramid Stage last year. Having watched Madrid this morning, they started really well and Axl’s voice was okay until around the middle. Tight set list and Axl doing okay on the big hits like SCOM and hopefully they’ll be okay. They’ll certainly bring more energy than AM.

Just about to say that. Mardy Bum was awful. Turner has disappeared up his own arse. Really flat set. I think Guns have a chance if they pick the right songs, at least Axl has energy. Just needs his voice to turn up.

Jas Mann was it? He was!

The tune itself was a grunge-type dirge! 😂

Also interesting that they visited the studio. I honestly think (and hope) that’s Axl trying to work out what is working and what isn’t.

Listened Back in Black this morning - genuinely thrilling! His current level isn’t like ‘02, he still had the power behind it then. That being said, if they play the right songs and he puts the power into the right moments he may be okay. Listened Jungle from Oslo and despite an awful start the middle and end were decent when he put some rasp into it.

No way Elton is ruining his big moment on Sunday to duet on the Saturday. McCartney on LALD is a lot more likely. That would be something.

Interesting opener, but they have a lot of strong material to play. Subdued opener, but if they go into sometime like Brianstorm next the place will erupt. Calculated.

It’s a cool video, but only what has preluded the other gigs on the tour. That being said, they clearly know this is a big one. Come on Axl!

Honestly feel a great set would be Appetite into the rest of the hits. Jungle would get the crowd going, I’m not sure ISE will!

Defo. Enjoying the coverage so far. Praying for Axl. Spent the week making excuses for him! 😂
