Pretty decent I thought.

Paul Weller was good as usual.

The BBC proms is a series of free live events that happen in the summer usually featuring classical music that are broadcast on TV & Radio.

This year they decided to the same with rock bands , hence the Electric Proms.

Prom comes from Promenade, IIRC.

They sounded good from what I heard - I tried in vain to get live tickets for them but didn't win the text lotteries...
