Anyone else watching FFS? I'm not sure that this collaboration is working

I'm watching Weller again on 601 (red button).

So much tripe on this year on the limited availability channels - due to the BBC's insistence that Women's bloody football WILL be shown - over and over again, no matter what's on at Glastonbury.

Sack that bloody WOMAN who's the sports producer at the Beeb.

WE DON'T WANT IT.

Watching Balance on the red button now. Really enjoyed the last song. Think I may have seen them before on Jools?

Best set of the weekend for me was Future Islands'.
Gave them a round of applause when they went off - which I haven't done with any others.

Frontman Samuel T. Herring is a name to remember (which I probably won't)!
By:

Definitely worth checking out, Gentlemanjohn.

Raw, inspired - and different.

That's the man, Gentlemanjohn!
I remember being entranced with his performance on Jools that night - just the same as tonight.
The type of bloke you just have to take notice of.

Agreed, Ibrahima.
Really enjoyed Pharrell - but Samuel T. Herring has stolen the show for me.

Will definitely catch up on the whole set now on the iplayer.
Herring is a monster!

Same here Tommy, i'd forgotten about it but came back to me very easily when i read about the dancing bit, was a stand-out performance and look forward to hearing more. Also remember seeing another USA band Vintage Trouble on Jools last year and they did a monster set on the West Holts last night, i think it's worth catching if you like a bit of soul/r&b/rockabilly fusion sort of thing.

check out Future Islands legendary turn on Letterman in April 2014

althought i thought Later was even better.
By:

When: 28 Jun 15 23:29
Full set of Future Islands not available on the i-player yet - but they do have 'Waiting On You' which is the song I saw on Jools.

Just brilliant:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/events/e84mxj/acts/amjgfx#p02vtvmr

Will check Vintage Trouble out, Gentlemanjohn.

AA, the Letterman turn is reported on the BBC site:

"Future Islands call themselves “too noisy for new wave, too **** for punk” and their performance on David Letterman’s show in the US last March was the indie rock moment of 2014. Judging by comments under the YouTube video (current views: 4m), music fans have watched the clip repeatedly - mesmerised (and in some cases horrified) by singer Samuel T. Herring’s dancing, and delighted to have discovered a band that’s all heart and zero affectation."

That was a great set of block rockin' beats by the Chemical Brothers on BBC3. It made everything else seem puny by comparison. New album out next month. Happy

Will watch The Who and FFS tomorrow.

Very funny Ibrahima!

This is reminding me of that day at the Olympics when you, Crisp and I were watching in the morning - and I kept seeing things on replay and thought we'd won another Gold!

It does indeed, Ibrahima - but that morning will live long in the memory as being a particularly hilarious day on Chit Chat.
Was wiping my eyes because of some of the comments!

Sometimes chit chat can do that.

That is why some of stick around hoping, chit chat can rise again.

Then again you have made me chuckle many times, or i would not be reminiscing with you.

How ridiculous is this: Chemical Brothers on both BBC2 and the red button channel - with no other channels showing Glastonbury?

Just who thought this transmission planning up?
