Blur - Absolutely Mindblowing

I wasn't especially a fan when I went along but they were awesome.. best set of the festival for me. Tender and This is a low were amazing and The Universal was the perfect end to the festival.

I thought reading through the lines of what Damon said to the crowd that maybe the reunited band wasn't so happy to be together.. I thought maybe thats why he was crying and emotional.

It was a great show. Can't help but think it's a bit of a farewell though because I just got the feeling that Graham wasn't looking best happy (though he did have a big smile towards the end).

I just think him and Daman don't much like each other any more.

Oh my baby,oh my baaaaaaabaaaaaaaaaaaaay.....

good to see them together again, whether we will see some new material or not remains to be seen, but i dont think they could have played a better set. they were the first band i ever got into along with Oasis (and Space!!) and brought back memories of buying my first album - The Great Escape - when i was a kid. A cover of D.A.R.E. would have been cracking! :P

I thought that as I watched them last night.

As others have said, never been a huge fan and have never seen them live before but I thought it was a great performance. We were in a great spot in the crowd, lots of flares burning, everyone dancing and enjoying the moment - a really nice vibe :P

Absolutely amazing - the highlight of the festival for me. But then I was always a big fan. It's so rare to be at a live performance where virtually the whole crowd is singing along.

That was the first time i ever saw them live, and i feel lucky as i thought i would never get the chance.

I got the feeling they all enjoyed it - Damon certainly and even Graham looked like he was really getting into the songs again which surprised me.

Did someone say Blur?! :P

If there's anyone who didn't know (that's none of the triangulites then :D ) I was on the barrier!! Just ridiculously great - loved the whole show so much and still haven't stopped grinning...

One of those 'I was there' moments for me

future_shock, did you see Blur?

:D

    • Healey's first budget with be Oct 28th
    • Been going for 10 years. Wasn't massively keen on the lineup beforehand - although as usual after some research I did start to really look forward to it. We had a brilliant time, felt more like old school Latitude, lovely vibe and we met some nice people. We saw loads but highlights for me -   Lime Garden Florence Road Jalen Ngonda David Byrne - Not a fan of him or TH really but we went out of interest and it was one of those festival shows that you'll never forget. The staging was off the scale. Eleni Drake - Up on BBC Introducing, what a haven that stage is.  Westside Cowboy Getdown Services - Probably highlight of the weekend for me. Absolutely brilliant and have booked tix for them in Bristol next year. Everything Everything - They're my favourite band so I loved it when they were added. A great start to Sunday and met loads of their fans up near the front. Alex James Britpop - We enjoyed it and Gary Stringer FFS! David O'Doherty - Saw him twice, brilliant as usual. Self Esteem - Adore Rebecca and the show was as live affirming as always.   Overall, it was such a brilliant weekend. Beforehand we said that we might give it a miss next year but I'm pretty sure that we'll be sucked right back in!
    • Me too.  Reckon they must have more this year.   Not bad is it - ended up paying same price as this year.  It still represents great value for me.  Well, until I check my bank account the Monday after the weekend.
    • Well mayors have more powers to do that sh*t...but they have to make the numbers add up.
