Paul Young might be alright too I suppose.
OK I just watched a bit of a recent live clip and I take this statement back, oof.

Just checked a couple of videos out, had assumed you just meant that his voice was fucked, not that he was fucked.

Bez and Shaun Ryder on different days is like splitting the aces in a blackjack hand.

Not really? Part of their formula is a headlining Rock act and/or a legacy one, and the Blink reunion tour did surprisingly well, so *BOOM* both boxes checked off by booking them.

Pogue Traders?
― bae (sic), Saturday, 18 May 2024 16:17 (one week ago) link
I will only be satisfied if this is a Rogue Traders cover band formed by members of the Pogues.

That said, a pleasant afternoon could be had surrounded by kids who are seeing Nouvelle Vague, the Blockheads, the Stranglers, a Black Grape tribute band with Shaun Ryder in it, and Rex The Dog apparently fulfilling the implication of his last single having a big JX-y synth patch and cod-diva vocal hook.

Does Bez DJ, or just dance while someone else DJ's, or crash other people's sets?

What is Kingmaker 4AD? A set of Kingmaker songs filtered through a chorus pedal?

Having seen him recently in a Lewisham pub - essentially, he dances as his wife DJs. He also offers commentary, for instance general 'come on's and reminding people that Manchester is a good city. More hype man than MC.
He occasionally intervenes if he isn't feeling the music (Pacific State got cut short).
Seemed good-natured, lots of time for crowd members getting photos with him.

Oh and the selections were mostly 70s-90s indie/baggy/dance crossover nostalgia, though without any Mondays or Black Grape (which seemed to frustrate parts of the crowd).
