Blur?

[Muppetmark]

Absolutely fantastic show.

[Matt42]

That was literally incredible..

[reflekting]

Wow. I think that was possibly as good as their 2009 hyde park show. What a way to start the week.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

That was literally incredible..

Oh my god I wish I'd gone so bad Hoping they'll pop up on this IOW highlights show that's on just now.

[Mouseboy11]

Only one place to go now after a show like that..TO THE LO O O O OCAL

Crowd looks tiny? Silly London.

The right hand side of the stage is the VIP section which is probably why is was so quiet, the other side was heaving

that's the Corporate VIP side. The peasants including myself were over the other side making a huge atmosphere. I think Damon looked very emotional at the end of For Tomorrow.

Thats good then Sad I didn't catch them at any of these UK gigs, hopefully do an arena tour or reform again in the near future.

On the train back, thought they were pretty average actually. Enjoyed it, but the sound was weak further back and their mix seemed off for the first 45 mins.

Good but not great.

[Alcatraz]

I had a fucking great time. I paid 2.50 for my tickets and I'm pretty certain I'm never gonna get value for money like that again in my life.

 

Crowd control was truly bizarre, as shown by that picture

 

I was within the barrier, and slightly stage left with plenty of room to dance. I must have been one of the last few through the weird system (which was like the entrance to the Naughty Corner) as I looked back as Blur came on and a whole crowd were being held back by security

 

Nice warmup for next week for sure. My feet are aching now but they'll be oh so strong come Wednesday

It was carnage for the Libs last year, people were heading for the open spaces they could see which turned out to be fenced off VIP bits causing all sorts of crushing and agro.

IOW looks maaaaaaadddddd

Any chance of donating a little extra to teenage cancer trust for the privilege or am I being a bit cheeky?

I slipped a tenner its way seperately after i'd got them. I'm just shouting about 2.50 to make it sound more impressive!

Good lad.

[home to you]

That was superb! Managed to get really close and the crowd were in good form

[JamesBrew]

Just back from Hyde Park. What a set. The boys played a blinder - Damon put so much into it!

But of rain, bit of sun, plenty of beers! Ready for next week.

[Mouseboy11]

Thought the new stuff was great live as well! Especially Go Out

[Matt42]

Wonder how many of you I was stood right next to and you didn't even realise

I am actually dead after this gig though, has made me a bit worried for glasto considering this is effectively (three bands and a headliner) and my legs are gone!

If you are the welsh bloke then no you will not beat England in the RWC. If you're the Gills fan, no you don't have a hope next season. If you're neither of those, maybe I will meet you at Glasto.

[Hugh Jass]

Just got home. I was quite far back (next to pylon but the sound was pretty good. Thought Blur were good, not gonna lie I've seen them better in the past but enjoyed it a lot. Was great to hear some oldies I hadn't seen them do before - Thought of Cars, Message Centre, Stereotypes.

[Hugh Jass]

That was meant to say Pylon 8 but has put some weird emoti thing in instead.

[Mash011]

First time I've seen them and they were bloody incredible. Thanks for breaking your leg Dave, hard to think we paid £2.50 for that. Setlist not quite to my tastes (much prefer later stuff) but performance absolutely on point,

[the wonderwhy]

Glad everyone had a great time - cheers for sorting my mate out LaLaLand

 

Wow, that was unbelievable. Definitely gone straight in to my top 10 gigs - don't think I've ever sung and danced so much in my life! Thought the sound & atmosphere was cracking in the front pit, although I was kinda disappointed I Broadcast and Message Centre didn't get a better reception   I must have been the only person dancing to I Broadcast within a 10 meter radius! 

 

Got nice & wet during Metronomy but dried up quick enough once Blur were on and we were jumping around. Just got home and am lying in bed still buzzing.
