Justin Timberlake and the Tennessee Kids take to the stage with Pusher Love Girl. The backdrop is white with shadows of JT and the band with streaming white lights – simple, sexy. What I love about Justin Timberlake – he is a contemporary artist with ‘real’ sophistication
In 2013 JTstarted off great but derailed a little. Despite the weakness of too many tracks and parts of his live show, he did a pretty credible job. But when you are playing in these leagues pretty credible won’t cut it. JT? Great? Yes. Greatest? Nah, in hindsight that experience has passed him by.
It isn’t like nightclubs or superstar performances, or blues great: it is the thrill of youth, the thrill of the new. One Direction were terrific.
In theory, Marina And The Diamonds schtick, Bjork goes pop, should kill. In reality, opening at the Izod for Coldplay Friday night, all her flaws became apparent
