:mad:

I cant believe it.....I am so mad, upset and want my licence fee back...yup all of it!

I was screaming at John Barrowman to shut up, I could see the boys on the tv monitor in the background with Graham Norton blarting on. THEN they put the wrong track on the screen 'Sure Shot' instead of 'So Watcha-want' - didnt play Sabotage...gutted, truly gutted.

BBC = Beastie Boys Can-we-show-them-any-less-respect-so-lets-talk-rubbish-over-them.

Sorry, just REALLY bitter and wanted more of the boys.

Adrock looked amazin' - MCA was just awsome - Mike, well what can I say but sweeeeet.

bbc cut two songs from a headlining act, they also did it to metalica but they play all of james'cunt'blunt songs which of these acts have sold more records i think the two that the bbc decided to edit.it fucked me off everything is always aimed at pleasing the sheep out there.

mtv italy showed all of the 4 tracks, wich its pretty strange considering they kept on saying they were showing the same footage coming from the bbc... i guess we've been pretty lucky, as they cut of most of the other's acts sets... like metallica, redhotchilipeppers and so. but they did show us the entire enrique iglesias set from hamburg(n)

i was so f@?king annoyed! i'd sat through a fair bit of drivel, waiting patiently - the minute they cut the last song from spinal tap and went back to the end with a 'you have to see this' comment (i'd like to, you changed what was on my screen, not me!) i knew then the beastie boys might get cut!

they suffered the worst though, cutting the first song and then chopping up intergalactic, when the gap came i was pleading with adrock to be quicker cause i knew they would cut away!

saw them do the end and sabotage later on though on the interactive bbc channel - money mark diving over his keyboard redressed the balance

they were fantastic and i thought pretty much the crowd thought so too!

Yeah, I too was annoyed, I mean christ its a music concert & they show pointless interviews with pointless celebrities tagging themselves on to a good cause. Seeing the boys on the monitor in the background was really grating!!:mad:(n)

Good use of the runway thing into the audience on Sure Shot, sorry, I mean So Whatcha Want (sarcasm)!! I couldnt get the interactive thing to work dammit!!

Graham Norton saying "We cant save the rain forests yet we still have Metallica" pissed me off too, obviously they aint gay enough for him!

I thought the Foo Fighters were awesome though.(y)

The BBC's coverage says everything that is wrong with todays music..show talentless drab to the max..and cut quality, and I'm not just talking about BB. I'm just surprised Girls Aloud weren't headlinig!!!..lmao

Time to meditate with my Electric Worm ;)

thank god they didn't play off the grid.
classic performance, they did great, yauch seemed subdued though. Loved it all, except the one beat that mix master dropped in intergalactic about halfway through, totally didn't work

BBC are wankers full stop. They have a prick of a main DJ, Chris Fat Bastard Moyles. I remember when TT5B came out, he was interviewing Noel Gallagher from Oasis, and he and his wife are big BB fans, and Moyles asked him what song he wanted playing, he was like " C-Check it out" by BB..and kept saying it..play it man, it's banging, me and the missus love em. You could tell that fatty wasn't happy because he really doesn't like BB. Funny as fuck though as Moyles is a kiss ass when it comes to the Gallagher brothers.
