"Kapranos dad dances across the stage. He's all swagger, with the purr of a 1930s radio announcer."

"Pink is unafraid to show the ugly parts, the hard parts, the parts that don't make it to Instagram, but also allows the joy of love in all of its forms to shine."

"Styles is a born charmer and his banter with the crowd is genuine, self-deprecating and funny."

"A flash of lightning illuminates the distant sky and, in that moment, the three aren't celebrated musicians they're just three guys who desperately miss their friend."

"It's Chris Cester that draws the eye, cementing his place as one of the most entertaining drummers to watch; he plays each song with an open-mouthed expression of barely contained fury."

"If there is something more pure and joyful than Beck doing the robot, we don't know what it is."

"'This is your song, Melbourne... It would do my heart good to hear you sing it with me,' says Neil when introducing 'Four Seasons In One Day'."
