Damon Albarn

[Guest]

Saw him last night at the Rivoli Ballroom and he was great!

He played things from all over his career. My highlights were the Gorillaz tunes, and Mr Tembo. He also played Out Of Time and This Is A Low (Both solo on the piano).

Any chance of him being there? I met his guitarist, and asked him about Glasto, but he just dived the question haha.

It'd be a cool moment to see Mr Tembo in the sunshine!!

(On a side note, met Dave Rowntree and my mate asked him what the chances are of a new Blur record, and he said "Right now, I'd say very good.")

He's in Poland I think? I thought we might get a secret slot form him somewhere but I think his tour dates suggest he won't make it.

[GeoHall]

I think it's a real shame if Glastonbury hasn't snapped him up

He's playing a very small venue in portsmouth near me and I tried to get tickets, I think about 100,000 people were trying to get tickets for a 400 capacity venue

[STEatT]

Seeing him on Saturday at SOS 4.8 in Spain so I will try bump into him/his band and ask him the question

[Jonny Hobbs]

I think he has dates over the weekend?

[Jonny Hobbs]

It appears he is at Down The Rabbit Hole in The Netherlands 27th - 29th June, but i guess he cant be playing all the dates?

Yep - love the album and also tried to get tickets for the Bristol gig - classic seetickets routine of getting to enter card details only to be told then it's sold out.

Well, he's playing the Netherlands fest on either the 27th or 28th, and then Poland on 29th.

So it's possible he could squeeze in Glastonbury on either 27th or 28th - but that would mean 5 dates in a row which seems unlikely...

Would love to see this - the setlist for last night looks great.

Seeing him tonight at Queen Mary University's Great Hall but would be great to see him at Glastonbury too

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

He was brilliant at the 6 Music Festival earlier in the year. He's exclusive to Latitude (not sure that really matters) but if he doesn't end up doing Glastonbury this year, that's probably why.

I'm so gutted I missed out on Bristol tickets, would love to see him at Glastonbury, a nice mini acoustic set would be good. One can dream

[Andeeroo]

Hopefully this will be case of another broken exclusive. Picked up the album yesterday. It's up there with some of my favourite stuff he's involved with. Stellar stuff.

[changingman67]

He was on Zane lowe tonight and said he wasn't playing.

Sounded good.

[CHRLY]

Would have been a brilliant west holts headline

Jack White is a UK Festival Exclusive for Glastonbury but is supposed to be playing Lattitude.

Damon Albarn is a UK Festival Exclusive for Lattitude but...?

I like him amd think his solo stuff is really good, but I ssaw him at the 6 music festival anf I Don't think it worked live, too slow

[nowyouregideon]

In an interview with Zane Lowe the other he just gave a flat "no".

[AdamWillingham]

If anyone has a spare ticket to his Bristol gig I would be eternally grateful, thanks

shame - he was excellent in London last week

"I like him amd think his solo stuff is really good, but I ssaw him at the 6 music festival anf I Don't think it worked live, too slow"

I get your point. I love blur and am hopefully going to latitude - but I wouldn't be at all surprised if I ended up watching royksopp instead.

The setlist looks ace, it shows the breadth of his songwriting through the years. His band look really tight as well. I still cannot get into the album though!!
