Olympic Games Closing Ceremony.

Post by **jones jones** » Sun Aug 12, 2012 1:30 pm

Managed to watch the first thirty minutes than gave up on it. As brilliant as the Opening Ceremony was so unbrilliant has been the Closing Ceremony ... so far. Hope for the audience's sake it improves.

Haven't seen the opening ceremony yet. Couldn't watch it at the time and it's nowhere to be found on replay, most annoying

Totally agree, confused and disjointed.

It's settling down now but the start was dire.

Oasis minus one ?

Who would ever have thought it.

(that means they can't have Paul Mcartney tonoght, or they would clash)

Not in the slightest!

Robbie would have been better taking Jessie j's place.

Robbie would have been more comfortable in the chorus line wearing Theia's cardigan than frontlining with the professionals. Jessies at least got a decent voice

I think I'm just disappointed he wasn't in there somewhere.

I'm amazed given Gary's recent devastating news.

The show went on, it's the only way.

Go Daltrey. It's odd, I can watch this and see who's missing at the same time.

You can't mean the one you and Uncle Kram knitted and which I never received?

It's really good to see you back, Snowfire :-6

Folk I spoke to today all loved it so I guess I should have hung in longer.

I got better for sure. Brian May and Jessie J were good as were The Who at the end
