They have turned closing ceremony into some kind of a music concert with the participation of all the local bands and solo singers
pretty disappointing
This is shite. The opening ceremony incapsulated everything that was great about Britain. This show is simply presenting our boring and unimaginative streak.
Oasis are the superior band, easily. Loved Damon Albarn but no way do they touch Noel and Liam as a combination.
This is basically a party. Too much of this country's shit exports. One Direction, Jessie J, these no-marks don't deserve to be there. I can see why they've done it this way. The opening ceremony was so fantastic they were never touching it.
Oh ffs, the British are redefining the concept of exacerbated patriotism... both ceremonies have been nothing but a major glorification of all things British. It's Britain, Britain, Britain and Britain... jeez, it's the Olympic Games guys, it's the international event par excellence!
Beijing was very Chinese though and I found it very educational. It taught me about their culture. Just this time, it's my own country exporting its culture elsewhere.
Nah man, Blur have way more integrity and a thoroughly cohesive back catalogue, while Oasis wrote 1 good album and about 10 good singles, same old material after their first two albums.
I don't get what people expect from the Olympics in Britain except British stuff, especially when Britain has quite a lot to brag about in terms of contributions to modern culture and living, even if some may not like them all.
The games encompasses not only sporting prowess, but a bringing together of cultures from all over the world, with the host showcasing their own cultural contribution.
After two weeks of solid sport, who wants to see some naff theatre version of sport when you can have music and something creative.
Poulter is a good player, he hasnt won enough for his talent but he's the first guy i'd have in Ryder cup matchplay, he's been one of the best players for us in that comp many times
