Cheers

Thanks all. I had a great time. I will write a wee blog about it on my DJ site and will post a link when I've done so.

With a few weeks of hindsight - these have been really good tracks. Momentary Bliss has really grown on me. Could be a challenge to ever perform live though, it depends so much on Slowthai? The videos have been great too. Do we know how the band is funding this? Are they still in partnership with EM...

Many thanks folks. I've a Northern Lights tour booked for the first night (fingers crossed), Golden Circle tour booked, and also a trip to the Blue Lagoon (very excited about that).

I wouldn't say there was a backlash to Beetlebum as such, but Blur definitely featured less heavily in a lot of sections of the pop-centric media following that, unclear if by design or a rejection from the mainstream or a bit of both. I remember the NME (or possibly Melody Maker) claiming it was d...

I'm aware some folk on here may have been to Reykjavik given Damon's affinity for the place. Which, interestingly, is getting mentioned again after years of it not being mentioned. I'm surprised it turns out he still has a house there. I thought Iceland had maybe gone the way of other Damon obsessio...

Whoever put this CD together nailed it. Do we know who it was? Graham? I see Chemical world, Sunday Sunday and Stereotypes as second tier Blur songs and it's interesting none of them made the Best Of. It's also interesting that there's a single edit of There's No Other Way, but the full length versi...

Pretty great reaction, from memory. I had a tape of it from Mark Radcliffe's Radio 1 show, he must have played it around 20 December 1996. I wore that tape out. One of their very best songs IMO and still an absolute delight to listen to today. The Great Escape gets a mixed rep but the response at th...

It's pretty good.. Better than everything on The Now Now. For me personally, I feel the latest phase of Gorillaz has been a bit reckless output wise. Bit of a lack of quality control as a lot of the material lacks depth and purpose if you ask me. I absolutely love the first 3 Gorillaz albums(I see ...

I wonder if the cinema release of this is some kind of contractual obligation to justify Jamie's son being on tour with them? Seems really odd he has just made a standard tour film given the rather unique access he has to Jamie. I agree with the poster above who said there should have been focus pla...

I turn 40 in February. I would really quite like to tank a bottle of wine and watch B-Roads. Would anyone be able to share a copy with me in the strictest confidence? Thanks.

.... M.O.R, The shit Blur singles collection: M.O.R Stereotypes Bang Crazy Beat Ong Ong Lonesome Street Chemical World :P I really like MOR! Both versions. And the live version at Glastonbury 1998 is thrilling. I really like Ong Ong as well. Agree with the rest. Chemical World has always sounded ve...

I think they sold a litle bit of soul when they made the album, they gave everyone what they wanted I think they did for 3 of the 4 singles. Stereotypes, Charmless Man and Country House are all a bit generic. Although I love Stereotypes. But aside from that, the rest of the album is definitely a pr...

How much do we think it's going to go for?

I dunno - £1500?

Is that just a total guess? I would absolutely pay that.

Yeah. A solo album is a great idea and would be really fun. They will have chewed it over. I think they were probably stopped from making The Now Now a 2D album by Warner. I think that record deal is up now, so they may be more flexible from now on.
