June 9Jun 9 Anyone going to the gigs this week?I was London Stadium last week and going to St James later this week too! Must say I’ve never seen such terrible logistical organisation for beers at a major event as a side note at the London Stadium.Interested to see who he pulls out as a guest or what cover he plays.

October 30Oct 30 He is a bit ploddy these days, isn't he? I love the lad but I'm listening to Dead Boys and it feels miles apart from most of his recent stuff. I suppose being one of the UK's richest musicians will do that to you. He does deserve every penny, I'm just not getting the thrills I used to get from his music right now. Needs to do more AYEs!

Needs to do more AYEs!I’m a big fan but I do agree his first album had a bit more life and sounded a bit different. Apart from ‘People Watching’ which basically is ‘Getting Started’ with different lyrics the rest of the album just blends together with no change throughout.

His current status is a classic problem for working-class artists who don't have to live that life anymore.It's also why rappers like Stormzy now struggle to find anything new or interesting to say.
