Looking forward to watching some of the past highlights on the dedicated iPlayer channel over the next few days. My highlights:
Tomorrow has Janelle Monae at midday - I didn't know I liked her stuff till I watched her set. She was fabulous.
Sunday has the epic David Bowie 2000 set - in full for the first time I believe - at 9:30pm and the Killers at 4:30pm.
Monday has Christine & The Queens (Gary Deegan's faves, I recall) at 11:30am, a cracking afternoon of Arctic Monkeys, PJ Harvey and then Amy Winehouse (from 3-6pm) and Blur at 11:30pm.
I've already missed Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Fontaines DC, LCD Soundsystem, The Cure and Radiohead from yesterday, but I presume I can catch up.
Bit disappointed they aren't reshowing Chic, REM, Earth Wind & Fire, Iggy Pop, Patti Smith (who I'm listening to as I write), Bruce Springsteen or the Verve's sets but you can't have everything.
I'll try to dip into some others because there's always something I enjoy a lot more than I expected.
If you're watching, hope you enjoy it.

She was introduced by Christine ( and the Queens ) as one of her favourite artists . I hadnt heard of her before to my shame . She was absolutely fantastic . I shall be looking out for her tomorrow .

Arthur Lee tonight on BBC4. Legend Made a point of watching that & really enjoyed it. I must give Forever Changes a proper listen - never really got beyond Alone Again Or, even though that’s one of my all time favourite songs. Did Arthur Lee’s Love play at the Music Hall shortly before he died or am I imagining it?

Did Arthur Lee’s Love play at the Music Hall shortly before he died or am I imagining it? They did play the Music Hall, possibly twice. I think that might have been the following year. He came out of jail, in 2001 I believe, and played plenty of gigs in the next 5 years I saw them at Wrexham only a few days after that Glastonbury show. No orchestra there though unfortunately

It may not be live, but I've enjoyed watching the BBC shows this weekend, there's been a good mix of young and old.

Really looking forward to seeing Bowie’s 2000 set in full (BBC2 at 9:30). As my son said the other day, he’s a genre in his own right.
Enjoying a bit of Nick Cave at the moment - was supposed to have seen him in Birmingham in May.

James Brown, James Brown - can't see his name without hearing Tom Tom Club singing 'Genius Of Love' "Stepping in a rhythm to a Kurtis Blow who needs to think when your feet just go"
