"A big concert full of energy...fun and happiness"

....or a load of old hasbeens with CDs to shift supporting a couple of upperclass spongers in trying to improve their public ratings by bathing in the reputation of their dead mother's sad death?

Oh come on mate, it might to an incredibly boring event but give these chaps a break, they're the only decent thing to come out of the Royal family in years.

Actually 2 likeable, fairly normal blokes.....Which is amazing considering. It's not fault they are where they are now...

The 70,000 tickets were sold out within 30 mins of being issued,looks like the touts will make a fortune.

I think listening to Pharrell Williams is a great way to celebrate 10 years of dead Di

I'd love to watch it, but unfortunately I've checked the calendar and it's bath night.

By all means have a concert, but PLEASE don't televise it. The original weeping-in-the-street-hysteria was bad enough, we don't want to set the professional weepers off again.
It's about time this unfortunate lady was left alone.

Must have been the introduction of new genes

though I suspect she would have loved all this worship from numpties, after her oscar winning performance with Martin Bashir

I have a similar vital engagement. I think I'm flossing that night.............

I have an appointment with beer so unfortunately can't make it

[drskhaled]

Well i spose the money is going to charity which cant be bad. But yeah i agree with some of the sentiments here. A young mother of two tragically died, very sad, but was she worthy of the national mourning? the public outpouring of grief was frankly over the top, especially when you consider mother Theresa died shortly after and barely a whisper (yes she was a missionary in India, but clearly loved by all who knew her).

Anyway let the princes have their concert so the popstars get their publicity and Elton John can sing that cringeworthy ballad again.

[Jammyb]

Nope. But I am expecting to see some dirty tackle.

Mother Theresa
Not very pretty though was she?

Not known for tipping off the press for a good photo opportunity.

Going about exhaustive good works for all your simple life is no substitute for being a "patron" to a couple of sexy chariddees and bonking playboys. She needed a better PR team.

She could have been a saint by now if she had played her cards right.

Well, at least I got the Cockney Rhyming Slang!!!!

Or at least I hope it was!!

And on a more serious note - maybe they should have labelled the concert as:

'Our Mum knew jack sh*t about music, but this is the celebrity has been middle of the road pop tastic event of the year for sad gits who are like our Mum - but still alive'
