Talking James Blunt 0 - Jason Mraz 1

Always find it amusing when the support act makes the main event look dull

Have always liked Mr Mraz but thought he was nothing exceptional until Friday at the SECC in Glasgow.

Made Mr Blunt look about as talentless as he clearly is (admittedly not helped by a faulty PA)

I don't know how many others on here have discovered Elliott Smith, but if you haven't he was like a mega-talented James Blunt, I actually don't mind James Blunt, although he's a bit limited as a lyricist. If you haven't heard any of Elliott Smith's stuff I can strongly recommend it, his lyrics are fantastic and he played almost all the instruments on his albums as well.

I was reading a few quotes in the Independent the other day about critics of James Blunt .

The one made by Noel Gallagher tickled me:
I'm not being an **** for the sake of it but are you telling me that James Blunt and KT Tunstall are a soundtrack for your life? F**k off. James Blunt? I'm sorry, but f**k off."
I couldn't put it better myself

Hence why music is such a subjective thing. Each to their own etc

Just look at how many albums Coldplay have sold

All I'm saying is that Jason Mraz made him look average (that's being very kind to Mr Blunt)

Noel Gallagher clearly believing his own hype.

2 Good albums and then disappeared (further) up their own ***holes.

Paul Weller (after being told Oasis couldnt support him at the Brits and he could duet with Mr Blunt) "I'd rather eat my own sh*t"
