Saw The Streets at Reading in 2004, I see what you're getting at as although it's a rock festival primarily (or at least used to be) he totally won over the crowd. It was a really great performance by him and the rest of his band.
I've seen Foo Fighters many times, so I'm used to Dave Grohl talking a lot and his 'style' but I dunno, it just seemed excessive tonight. I know you'll never please everyone though, I do think it's crazy they only played four songs off their first two albums though! [Post edited 25 Jun 2017 0:30]

I've seen The Streets/Mike Skinner 6 times- he has never disappointed. By far my favourite artist.
When I was about 16 I took advantage of my Dad (Lucan) when he came home from the pub. I convinced him we should bid for tickets to see him on ebay. To his dismay he wasn't outbid. He drove so we were both a lot more sober than we would've wanted to be. He even admitted afterwards that he was a natural performer.
I wouldn't even be able to name a Foo Fighters album so can't really comment on that. As someone who was indifferent towards them though, they have now rocketed up in my estimations. |  |

They need to play some more stuff off their brilliant first two albums. Can't believe they played fecking Wheels, it's rubbish.
I'm a huge fan but all the talking is bloody annoying too. Compare this set with the one they did at Reading a few years ago and it's no contest (great Queen cover mind). |
Yeah.., thought under pressure was excellent - a good tribute to both Freddie and Bowie I thought. |  |

I worked in the student union throughout my time at Exeter and saw the streets several times. We did their after show lock in one night - dont remember much, but recall Mike Skinner being unreal at table football. I fancied myself as relatively decent, but barely won a point over several games. |  | | |

I'm pretty sure he mentions table football in his autobiography, which I need to reread.
I'd say he was the best British artist/band to come through in the noughties. | |

Yeah I was talking about them the other day, they've really been forgotten by a lot haven't they- which is a shame.
Silent Alarm was a great album. | |

Yeah, it really does look like something special.
My brother-in-law loves them and was supposed to see them when he broke his leg, he'll be gutted when he sees this.
Oh well, I did get him a second hand dvd of them for Christmas. |
Now watching the rest of the show on iPlayer (went to bed at 11 as I was knackered).
I was also meant to see them (at Wembley) just after he broke his leg.
NEED to see them. So good. | |
