Blimey, I'm no music snob and I bow to no man in my appreciation of good pop music, but this... this is cynical, bland shíte.

The ladies loved it, mind.

It was happening where I was staying for a work do, and the bar staff thought it would be hilarious to sneak us in halfway through. I was about 9 pints in so it sounded like an amusing idea. I was wrong.

There were many, many ladies of a certain age who were clearly deeply committed to Jason, Howard and the other one. Is that who I mean?

And there it is.. As you say. The Ladies.

They had dancers and a gospel choir and a huge set that was like a sort of Transformer... BUT THE BLANDNESS! It actually made me nauseous.

Fair enough. Tbh I have seen them at Wembley Stadium when Robbie William rejoined. Had an invite by a friend who had a box. I thought the stage design, lighting & theatrics were incredible. Music was shíte but glad I went.
