Did anyone else see Jamie tune up the acoustic guitar completely by ear whilst carrying on a conversation with the others? If I'd been in there I'd have gone home in the face of such musical giftedness (it's a word)

JC was great last night, wasn't he? Was gonna turn over but stayed watching after he turned up. However re. the guitar, it's actually not difficult to tune a guitar to itself. Even i can do that. Hope they show a lot of the JC bits tonight...

Well sure, anyone can - what I meant was he didn't use anything to tune the guitar to in the first place (ie the piano) to get an accurate E - just his ear! Most impressive

Loads of people can do that... most muscians have to do it on stage if their guitars go out of tune

Jamie Cullum is a fantastic musician but tuning a guitar by ear isn't really that impressive.

E A D G B E gets drummed into your head within the first week of learning a guitar and it never leaves you!

?? Are you serious? You can hear a perfect note in your head and tune your guitar to it? Maybe it's just me who doesn't have perfect pitch then...

Most people don't, but a lot do... the frustrating part is that they're not always people who are particularly musically talented in other ways! Or maybe I'm just jealous.

What was going on with his hair

And

Is he just a US artist now? He seems to have disappeared in the UK.
