All this teasing and suspense is killing me :bomb: I've been listening to Blur nostop for the past few days to get in the mood!

Good idea! I may have to try doing this too.

Preorder the vinyl now! :bomb:

Ah yes just seen this!!! Hmmm I may have to :lol: are you?

 

On another note, wrong thread, kind of, but in 'Last Living Souls', the Gorillaz song, that bit about halfway through the song where Damon sings with just the piano, well I just think that is one of the most glorious pieces of music from him I have ever heard :wacky:

No. Just no.

I think it's funny, no need to get cranky.

I only managed to catch the second half of Under The Westway, but what I heard sounds great! Can't wait to hear The Puritan as well :D

 

Here's the link: http://blur.co.uk/livestream/

They're gonna play The Puritan on Radio 1 now!

It's awfully quiet around here!

Anyway, I've been trying to think what would be my ideal Blur setlist. Obviously I will be ecstatic whatever songs they play, but something like this would be amazing! :wideeyed:

 

(Theme From Retro intro music)

Beetlebum

There's No Other Way

Girls & Boys

Star Shaped

Blue Jeans

Bank Holiday

Badhead

Good Song

Out Of Time

Tender

Stereotypes

Chemical World

Country House

Parklife

End Of A Century

No Distance Left To Run

Death Of A Party

This Is A Low

The Universal

 

For Tomorrow

Song 2

Popscene

Globe Alone

The Puritan

 

Strange News From Another Star

He Thought Of Cars

Sing

Under The Westway

 

TFR intro and opening with Beetlebum because of the 15th anniversary of Blur (the album) :)

Also, this was really really hard! Especially as it pretty much has to sum up their entire career in one setlist. I can't imagine how hard it must be for the band to actually make the setlists for real!

That's quite a brilliant setlist. The only one I'd really like to see not included here is Essex Dogs.

M.O.R.

On Your Own

Essex Dogs

Coffee & TV

Ooh now you come to mention it, Fools Day and Coffee and TV need to be in there somewhere. Get rid of Country House, easy.

 

And Caramel I'd love to see.

Essex Dogs is ok but it'd kill the flow of the show, I'm afraid.

 

Just one month to go! :dance:

I just got an email saying my tickets have been sent :awesome: :wacky:

I think it'd be magic to end the first half on Essex Dogs.

Under The Westway is so beautiful I literally sat there listening to it crying, I dont know what is going to happen when they play it at Hyde Park then :lol:

It's going to be the last song and the plug is going to be pulled half-way in as they broke the 10:30 deadline.

 

Hyde Park is a horrible venue for music, have the wind blowing the wrong way and your screwed for sound.

As long as that doesn't happen at Wolves Civic Hall I won't care :P :laugh3:

 

I went to see Kings of Leon in Hyde Park last year and it wasn't too bad. The weather was great but I can't remember how windy it was. It was pretty much my first ever concert though so I can't really compare it to anything :\

Had the best day of my life in Hyde Park.

 

3/7/09, Blur. Absolutely incredible.

 

Been there for five gigs (Blur, Basement Jaxx, Jay-Z, KoL, Stevie Wonder), each one's been fantastic. I've heard sound complaints from others (KoL the year after I went, Arcade Fire), but it's personally my favourite venue in the world.

 

Literally, cannot wait. So excited for the Olympics, but simultaneously, dying for the end of it :P
