10 points to anyone who can find the video of 'Dare' Live with Shaun Ryder being a complete car crash, its titled on Youtube as something like "Greatest performance ever!!" or something.

I'm already ridiculously excited about the prospect of Melancholy Hill .. Please, please, please be true !!

anyhow, how come they're suddenly so popular? Sales-wise, the latest has bombed.

If this is true...

It will be a serious battle between Gorillaz and Groove Armada for me!!

[manudave]

Isn't it the 40th anniversary headline slot?

[eFestivals]

Probably because they hardly toured the first 2 albums.

due to a lack of interest.

Yet suddenly there's major interest when the latest album hasn't sold?

Gorillaz are about the only big band left whose live show is still an enigma.

if not actually seeing the band is called enigmatic, that is.

Or have they come out from behind the screen?

Why were so many people in uproar about having football shown on the big screen, but are now spaffing themselves at the prospect of a cartoon as the headlining act?

Glastonbury 2010 - the year of the screen.

Nice little interview with Jamie Hewitt and Damon Alban here. They talk about gigging behind screens and say they would never do it again. They play out as a full band now with Damon Alban, Mick Jones and Paul Simonon from the Clash. I will wee my pants if this is true. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00s7cx8
