Day 301 - Live at the Brits with Tree!!

No I'm not at the O2, but on my sofa with a mushroom en-croute and a glass of red (yes I know, New Year's Resolution - no mid-week drinking but its been in the decanter since Friday and must be going off.....).         

OK - so it's the Brits!!  Over the years there have been some cringe-worthy evenings, who remembers Mike Fleetwood & Sam Fox in 1989?  Classic moments such as the Union Jack Dress, thank you Geri and the gorgeous vision in silver from 2002 - still "Can't Get That Out Of My Head" Kylie....


But generally the British Phonographic Industry Awards get it wrong in my opinion and give the statues to useless articles - for example Lily Allen and Blur or they try to be too cool and award obscure artists, that leave you asking....Laura who??

So it starts in 10 minutes, I have various modes of recording devices ready - it will be live....there could be tears, expletives, spoilers (beware) - anything could happen at #GMTlive!!

20:00  OK here we go.....I actually have no idea who is performing!!!?

20:04  Great start, gotta love Ant & Dec and it's Taylor.....

20:08  That dancer got a good view of Taylor's **** - I do like Swifty!!  She's on she must have won Best International Female....good start!!!

20:10  #SamSmithBrit

20:12  Its the battle of the British Boys....SMITHY, SMITHY, SMITHY!!!!

20:14  Rita and Orlando are annoying......Ed, oh dear......boo!!!

20:16  Break 1 already......another glass of red, go on then!!! 


20:22  Best Group....none of them really???  Clean Bandit maybe......they make lively tunes!!!  Royal Blood, showing my ignorance.....never heard one of their songs, are they worthy winners!!?  Sorry if that is a shocking comment!!

20:26  What a voice Sam has, spine tingles - stunning....if he doesn't win something I wont be happy!!! #treerage

20:36  Ellie looks nice....but this is awkward!!
20:36  Any except St Vincent.......who?
20:37  Yippeee, Taylor....great album, well deserved!!!

20:40  From the intro, and start of the vocals.....Royal Blood not for me, sorry!!
20:41  Make this noise end!!!  Hilary and Melissa bet you like this group?

20:50  Who is the twat in the hat next to Simon?

20:52  Moneys on Paloma....
20:52  Ella well deserves it but she is X-factor.....Brit curse!!!

20:53  Well done Faithy.....she is a unique talent.  Great speech Paloma.....but a bit long winded!!!  End now...please!!!

21:00  Ok, Sheeran that was not bad, bit of a noise.....quite clever, but seen that done by a teenager and much better!!!!

21:08  Oh it's a Kardashian.....my she is a big girl!!!

21:11  Well deserved award Sam.  It is great when Brits make it big globally - oh its Kanye!!!

21:12  Fecking awful and why sing a song with all these swear words.....bored, going to do the washing up!!!


21:16  Absolutely dreadful.....

21:17  Hozier.....I love the Church song!!!!
21:18  It was always gonna be Pharrell....he is "Happy" chappy.....

21:26  I'm ready to cringe.....just don't dance!!!

21:30  Sorry Take That fans but they need to STOP, bland tune and even Barlow is starting to sound a tad off key....the performance almost saved by Howard's energetic drumming!!!  Who is the little tramp at the back....oh its Mark!!!

21:32  Best single.......GHOST, GHOST.......

21:33  Ok, well done Fleur.....
21:34  Oh, I meant Mark.

21:36  First Aid Kit......????
21:37  Well done the Foo's - you happy Tiffin?

21:39  We are off to Budapest.....come on Ezra!!  I actually like his voice, are you shocked....I prefer his other song though!!!

21:50  Come on breakthrough has to be Sam!!!
21:50  Yehar....."Money on my Mind"

21:51  And Ant & Dec hundreds are following my live blog.....well actually it has had 26 hits!!!

21:55  Paloma, is so good - mesmerizing - great staging and what a performance!!  Good luck Madge following that...... 

21:57  Jimmy Carr was NOT funny!!

21:58  1D.......YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!  Here comes Syco....

22:07  Getting bored people......writing birthday cards #birthdaycard spoiler


22:09  Predictable.....Congrats Ed, he has a lot of fans.....but just don't get it!!!

22:10  Here comes Madge...will it be vintage classic stuff or her new dribble!!??  The after party is at 5 Jackwood.......

22:12  Whoops!!!!

22:14  This is awful, such a bland song.....I think she should go to A&E, she might have broken something!!

22:19  Not a bad Brits, some great performances but the talking point will be Madonna's dramatic fall and then singing "Watch me stumble"......sorry Madge, you need to head to the same musical retirement home as Take That.....and please drag the absolutely dire Kanye West with you.

22:22  That's all folks......
