I did too.
And as expected the COS were absolutely crap!
A German 80's synthi pop band that went on about communism etc.
Now Anthony may like to give new bands a chance but at least he could choose one that had one of the following qualities:
1) can sing.
2) looks good.
3) can play musical instruments.
4) currently in this year not thinking back 20...
And they had neither.
James Brown was much better, although you could tell his age was having an effect on his music as he let his band do most of the entertaining while he kept taking a back seat.
The Chili's were excellent, the crowd were roaring with excitement every time they started a track.
Unfortunately, IMO the mic/PA system was a bit naff & Anthony's words were very hard to decipher, leaving us to go off what we knew they should be from the music listened to.
After 4+ hours waiting for them, my back was giving me agony & the big fat bloke behind me kept sticking his sodding knee in my back.
But the wife enjoyed it, which was what counted as it was for her that we went.
Next time, I think we will stick to Manchester, Cardiff was too long a drive.
