Has Blur announced any US dates?

[Gribbz]

No idea.

[Amneeziac]

Coming from a site whose front page feature is "Celebrity Big Brother is Back," this doesn't mean all that much. It doesn't change the level of expectation I had of them being there at all.

[Gribbz]

Yeah, it's all good.

Just thought I'd share.

Let's ask Perez Hilton. His ghostwriters scooped APW, after all.

Wait a minute, Dale Gribble isn't from Tucson...

Celeb Big Brother is a big deal in the UK. You can't run any sort of publication without covering it. It'd be like overlooking the SuperBowl here.

The CIA was onto me. I have a new identity. "Rusty Shackleford."

Really is Blur a headliner? In America?

Subheadliner, Gorillaz are bigger here.

Well...there are better then JJ or The Killers...

Well...there are better then JJ or The Killers...

I am not saying who is better, but who is a bigger draw really. I just dont see people flocking to see Blur.

Any time I saw them I do not recall it being sold out. (Which was the Palladium and the SB Bowl)

Plus I really dont think the Killers are a Coachella type of band. I just dont see it.

[RedThom]

truer words cannot be said.

[Gribbz]

Not sure about them headlining...

another excellent article:


P Diddy made sure New York revellers got back from the ball safely on New Year's Eve by teaming up with City Taxi & Limousine Commission to give people free rides home.

Diddy said: "New York is the most iconic New Year's Eve city. Let's show everyone a holiday celebration doesn't end on the stroke of midnight, but when everyone gets home safely." Pimp my New Year or what...

[Gribbz]

P. Diddy is quite the philanthropist indeed.

Subheadliner, Gorillaz are bigger here.

STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sonofhal]

This newspaper is quite often wrong. I think this article makes it no more or less likely that they'll be there.

I'd like Blur to headline, seeing as that would give them a bigger time slot. Gorillaz has a new album coming out also. If Damon were to do a Gorillaz -> Blur, then I think that would be a good set-up for ticket sales, depending on how the rest of the day is.

But still, I don't know if Blur would start everything with Coachella. I'm sure they're all cool with Paul T and Goldenvoice. I mean, Blur has been to Coachella before, and The Good, The Bad, and The Queen were able to play their entire album in 2007; but Blur is such a British band. I can't see them making their first show in America.

No.

Yes.

If you're under the age of 25, that maybe true, if you're over the age of 25, the opposite is true...

& you won't convince me that Gorillaz have had more singles, just more videos (but since we're talking about an animated-visual band, that's bound to be the case, isn't it?)

Gorillaz -> Blur would be fucking EPIC!

but yeah, I would be shocked if Blur started their reunion comeback at Coachella... but i've also predicted that their first US show will be Coachella 2010

I think this argument came up before and to that I said....Daft Punk...big French act that decided to make their pyramid debut at Coachella...

i hope you're right... i really, REALLY do...

but check the article, the only quote or source is this:
Our source says: "Coachella is huge."

wow, way to go out on a limb.

Don't fool yourself though...this article has been re written like 14 different times by all sorts of newspapers...I am just saying that Coachella has done some amazing things...and based on that if Blur did their 1st show there, I wouldn't be surprised...

I would take Blur as a headliner over 95% of the crap pushed by this board... easily.

I would too actually...not in my top 10 headliners but it would make up for JJ and all the talk about The Killers...whether I would watch them would depend on whether something epic was on the other stages (FSOL, Fever Ray, Royskopp...)

[Xenocide]

i would put them in my top ten headliner choices, easily (and most of those ten would be longshot, wish acts)...

i can only think of a handful of acts i'd skip Blur for in a conflict, and most of them GV probably won't book anyway... pussies.



Blur >>>>>>>>>>>> JJ
Blur >>>>>>>>>>> Coldplay
Blur >>>>>>>>> Morrissey
Blur >>>>>>> The Killers
Blur >>>>>> U2
Blur >>>> Neil Young
Blur >>> Radiohead (yes, i said it!)
Blur >> Oasis
Blur > No Doubt

[Gribbz]

" Blur >>> Radiohead (yes, i said it!)"

That outta upset some folks.

[Xenocide]

fuck em.
