They played it in Hyde Park three years ago so you never know. A truly lovely piece of music but it does lower the energy somewhat.

True true. I'll keep my fingers crossed. I bet I end up seeing them at Hyde Park and Glasto in the hope of different setlists.

In terms of criminally underrated songs I'd love to see Strange News From Another Star make an appearance, but like NDLTR it's not exactly a party anthem.

from 2009 i would drop-

tracy jacks

jubilee

badhead

trimm trabb

i'd put in 6 new songs, and something like MOR,sing,charmless man and some rarities

thats massivelly different, but still crowd pleasing

I think they've played badhead almost every time i've seen them. Love that song. And i think i'm alone in adoring Tracey Jacks. Helluva track.

Hehehe it was the Steely Dan sheen to Ghost Ship that had me pining for a numbah.

Fuck yes, that's it. Steely Dan. That's an inspired and gloriously accurate comparison. Spot on Wooderson.

Not alone - possibly my favourite track from Parklife, banging tune.

Incidentally Damon wasn't the only one blubbering at To the End in 09, I was a wreck!

I had a rough year in 2009, my girlfriend at the time broke up with me then attended the festival with her new boyfriend/my ex-friend whom she cheated on me with. So I was a blubbering wreck during To The End / This Is A Low.

Also sob story over : I then went to uni and ended up with someone much better looking .

The denouement to this anecdote was more blunt than i expected. Made me chuckle. Well in son.

Met my girlfriend during blur 09. Would be an absolute dream them playing. Just them releasing a album is amazing. I would absolutely love them to play - special night if so. Tender would make me cry like a baby.

First gig we went to together after that festival was the last ever oasis gig at v fest and we love Noel so if it's Noel then Blur we'll be blubbering wrecks before blur come on...

I'd definitely keep the ones that I've put in bold. They played Sing at Hyde Park in 2012 which was excellent. I'd love to hear Charmless Man live.

    • Brighton centre is a weird old venue for the Mary Wallopers - a great band, a really good live spectacle, and its a saturday night as well which sets it all up - but its at the bloody Centre? a charmless nonsense of a conference centre? Brighton dome is a ten min walk away and is so much nicer a place to see bands its ridiculous!    ah well, i'll probably mosy along anyways . . . 
    • So bad honestly. I get that bad weather happens but their communication was non existent. When you're managing crowds of tens of thousands of people, it's just not good enough. I left when Massive Attack was cancelled (the first time) and it genuinely did feel unsafe trying to get out. No one knew what was going on, people still sitting in the ground when there were hoards of people trying to leave, no crowd management at all...   I've been to PS enough times to know sometimes you need to just roll with it but this was way worse than "the bar queue was 30 minutes long".    Today will be better but still feel super disappointed.

    • Solid list...  but i must ask?  are you excluding Lime Garden & Tomora as you didn't like them or is it that you havent listened to them? 
    • It was Brooklyn last year, and I seem to remember a Guinness tent
