Employing controversial VAR technology, we re-examine various events on the rock and roll pitch and suggest a new perspective. Those key moments include …
… the “bucolic frolic” at Knebworth 50 years ago as seen from 100 yards away just past the burger van and featuring Tim Buckley, Alex Harvey, the Mahavishnu Orchestra, Van Morrison, the Doobie Brothers and the Allman Brothers Band. And a stark naked Jesus.
… when did the Age of Spectacle begin?
… how Two-Way Family Favourites helped start Live Aid.
… Waters v Gilmour, a feud way beyond candour and honesty.
… the moment Van Morrison first became ‘Captain Letdown’.
… memories of Wembley Stadium on July 13 1985 – Status Quo, U2, the non-appearance of Cat Stevens, the planned link with Ian Botham at Trent Bridge and swapping Tony Hancock lines with a man on Concorde.
... the three stages of rock and roll.
… life before mobile phones.
… The Revenant and Zone Of Interest, films that feel like the past without trying to make the past look cool.
… “the older I get, the older I wanna get”.
… Joni Mitchell and why we love an old curmudgeon.
… and birthday guest Andrew Stocks wonders why some bands can’t bury the hatchet.
