I do like a bit of Timberlake mind, I only wanted to see 'bring back the night' live and that suited me.
The whole show was actually damn good though, he can do it.

He tours with his own band 'JT and the Tennasee Kids' so it's not completely a "Justin Timberlake new album tour" which was a welcome twist I didn't expect.
He did a couple of solo Elvis tracks very well and quite a cool tribute to Michael Jackson with an acoustic 'Why'.
Some old 'Miami Sound Machine' vocal samples thrown in the mix even.

I thought the £95 price tag for our seats was a bit steap but when I came out I said the next time we go to a show like that I'm hustling for floor seats or VIP and enjoy it properly.

Floor seats were £500 a pop mind.

I'd have gone to see Madonna back in the day in her prime (90's) but not now, she's fucked.

Ouch!

I've made a solid decision to see more acts before the good ones get too fucked.

Clapton is gonna be awesome, standard.
I regret never seeing Michael Jackson because that guy could do it right up to his death bed.
There's still chance to see Bruce Springsteen.
Possibly Buddy Guy if I can get to the states cos he's still touring.
I've seen Joan Amatrading and that was brilliant, she's fucking awesome live, far better than any studio album.
I saw Oasis at the last gig of the "Standing On The Shoulders Of Giants" tour before they disappeared for years, epic.
I went to the Prodigy's 'Warriors Dance Festival' 4 years ago for their 25th aniversary, 65.500 people sold out, epic.

Regret not seeing The Stone Roses comeback but hey, the touts won that bid. lol


We were even going to see Maveric Sabre before he was famous at The Cockpit in Leeds for £10 and went to the cinema instead at the last moment (women!).

Elton's changed the set to the songs that he can just about hit the notes for. it was embarrassing. much like McCartney at the Olympics. hasbeens the pair of them. my favourite band of all time is the rolling stones but i'm never going to see them in their decrepit state.
