well SteveO....
Noel Gallagher was asked to perform,Paul Weller also....both declined, and both quintessentially British artists,as important to music in the UK as were The Who and Kinks IMO.
also read somewhere that Stones and Pink Floyd were also asked to perform...thinking maybe The Stones should have been there but theyd robably have to wheel Charlie Watts out in a wheelchair,maybe they'll do the paralypics LOL, PF, with the crap between Gilmour and Waters..there'd be more chance of a Beatles reunion i'd have thought!
i have not seen the closing ceremony as yet so i cannot comment on sound,song selection or of the artists who performed there.
