Apparently Blur are releasing a 7" vinyl single containing two new songs. Source here.

Hopefully this will lead to a new album and an appearance at Glastonbury 2011 maybe?

I got the impression it was more to highlight the importance of record stores for Record Store Day, hence the limited number of copies in a limited number of outlets.

Imagine it would be highly unlikely that they would play 2011 having only played last year.

I can't see them coming back so soon.  But I do see them as one of those bands that will tour forever like the Rolling Stones.  So maybe some day but not for a long time yet.  

On a side note (kinda) - NEW BLUR SONGS!  :P :P

Really hope they don't continue doing gigs - the Hyde Park and Glastonbury shows were a perfect way to sign off after the way they fizzled out last time without Graham. A seriously perfect way to ensure that the legacy of Blur goes unharmed is to just go "We've shown what we can do, we'll leave it there".

One of the very, very best gigs I've seen mind you.
