'Indie heroes' James bring the roof off Llangollen Pavilion
The roar and chorus of the audience said it all, as Tim Booth and pals were unstoppable. Opening with Johnny Yen from their 1986 album Stutter, the band powered through a dynamic set featuring fan favourites like Seven, Come Home, Just Like Fred Astaire, and She's A Star. The reaction to Shadow of a Giant from last year's Yummy – the band's first-ever number one album – proved why these Manchester legends are as relevant today as they were more than 30-years-ago. The final run – Sit Down, Tomorrow and Sometimes – became a mass singalong, with 6,000 voices lifting the roof off of the Pavilion. A euphoric encore of Sound and Laid brought the night to a powerful close. Supporting James were rising indie stars The K's and singer/guitarist Tom A Smith. TK Maxx presents Live at Llangollen Pavilion continues on Thursday with headliner The Script.

🤖 AI vs Humans: Predicting the results of Premier League Matchday 26
Let us know your predictions in the comments! Last week, we pitted our special guest - UK rapper Kidwild - against an AI to see who could most accurately predict the results of Premier League matchday 25. Kidwild correctly called four results over the course of the matchday, but was unfortunately out of luck when it came to correct score predictions. Meanwhile, the AI was on fire, correctly Fulham's 2-1 win over Nottingham Forest and Liverpool's 2-1 defeat of Wolves, along with three correct results. That leaves the scores (three points for a correct score and one point for a correct result) at 173-154 in the AI's favour after 25 rounds of games this season. Let's see if this week's special guest, lead singer of indie band The K's and Newcastle fan Jamie Boyle, can get the human race caught up. Our AI is powered by Maik mit AI. Check out their website here. Watch the video to find out what Jamie and Maik mit AI went for in the three biggest matches of the weekend; Everton v Manchester United, Newcastle v Nottingham Forest and Manchester City v Liverpool. 'Breakdown In My Bedroom' by The K's is out now.
