They never really finished properly did they?? Coxan left so they just stopped. Damon shit on him really and I think looking back he might realise that now. They have done some great songs, I never thought any of there albums where OUTSTANDING there was always one or two real shitters on there (IMO) but they did good singles. I heard they've been offerd a Million quid by live nation just for the one gig at Hyde park, cant see Albarn needing the cash but the others might??

I read on a page somewhere on the net that Caxan says they never really split up, they just didn't write anything new, he always considered himself as a member of Blur, bit like what Powers said with the La's a couple of years back, he said that despite them splitting, he always considered himself as a member of the la's any time or place, let's hope very soon aswell.

Should be going should be a good crack getting a hotel and all that also £45 to see one of your fav bands of all time isn't much of a price to pay to be honest.

this was on nme.com:
Liam Fray says he wants to go to next July's Blur gigs at Hyde Park in London wearing an Oasis T-shirt. The Courteeners frontman says he was "Oasis throughout and through" when he was growing up. "In the mid-'90s you couldn’t even mention Blur's name out loud in Manchester," he said (Daily Star).
seems a bit odd, was there ever a massive rivarly? or was it all papers/nme hyping everything up? i know a lot about the 2 bands, but all the rivalry stuff seemed to come from the nme.

Hmmm, he was a young lad at the time and apparantly (I wasnt of age then) but there was actually a fair bit of Blur/Oasis related bullying in youngsters at the time, but I dunno how true that was. I think the comment was largely tongue in cheek as all the Blur V Oasis thing ever was, in my opinion, was an agreement by the NME to sell more papers and Blur to sell more records

I was a bit to young for it all me but I think it was just something that NME/Oasis/Blur used to sell shit at the end of the day.
