There are no more one-offs at Coachella. It would have to be a two-off.

It seems so quaint, doesn't it? All those issues of Blurb are part of the download that came with the CD box set. I've read the first two or three and they're pretty goofy.

Ok, but Damon has to want to tour with Blur here. Damn Damon.

Damon Albarn performed with Bobby Womack at the Apple Store in Soho tonight (the Q&A and show were filmed and will supposedly be up on iTunes for free soon), and he was gracious enough to hang around and meet people after. Damon signed my vinyl copy of Modern Life is Rubbish and became really animated when I told him we'd gone over for the Margate show ("It was so hot in there!"). I asked if Blur might play in the U.S. and he said they were talking about it, but they'd only come if there was some demand for it. I assured him there would be.

Really nice guy, Damon.

Womack was absolutely brilliant, by the way.

**Fourthisto** · 09-19-2012, 04:18 AM

That's INSANELY cool, Stupor. Jealousy abounds.

**Spooks** · 09-19-2012, 05:11 AM

Awesome free show indeed! Nice pic Stuporfly! Bobby Womack's brilliant LP is one of my favorites from this year and I'm glad he's still got it. Everyone watch Booby/Damon/others on Jimmy Fallon this Friday! Maybe Damon will stop by ATP this weekend

ps I think they would have came here by now if they wanted to. They were never that big in the US like Oasis/Radiohead...

but we can only dream the Stones Roses/Blur being at Coachella 2013

Considering Barry Hogan's irrational hatred of Blur, I'd doubt it.

From Blur's official Facebook page...

Thank you for waiting... Rock Werchter is about to announce that Blur will headline next July. We're excited.. hope to travel in 2013 to play to more of our lovely fans who we haven't seen for a while. Don't know where yet, we'll tell as soon as we do..
Stand by..

YES!

**Boourns** · 10-05-2012, 02:58 AM

Primavera, perhaps?

**Boourns** · 10-05-2012, 09:58 AM

Yeah, surely. I can't imagine they'll be back at Glastonbury already, so maybe Isle of Wight or just some arena shows.

On a related note, I wonder why Pulp still hasn't announced a proper tour to go along with that Sheffield date, which sold out in a jiffy.

**Gribbz** · 10-05-2012, 10:02 AM

U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!

**concertgoer** · 10-05-2012, 10:42 AM

Really hoping for Coachella and I also would also fly to Chicago or the east coast for a show.

**Fourthisto** · 10-05-2012, 10:44 AM

Same here... I'd go anywhere for a show - especially if it was on a weekend, so I could make a full trip of it.

It's probably just a one off home town xmas show. Like those NYE ones The Flaming Lips do every year.

The European dates will likely run through to mid summer as the act has also announced it will play Belgium’s Rock Werchter, which runs July 4-7.
“More as we know it…” says a note on the band’s Facebook page.

SOUTH America? Are you kidding me?

**concertgoer** · 10-10-2012, 06:36 PM

I am starting to get fucking annoyed

**Spooks** · 11-13-2012, 06:09 AM
