I did get my old dog a Parka that made her look like she should be back in the 90’s and mad for it (tit pic to crop out child)

Just watched it on YouTube. They sounded fantastic, but man, that was a dead crowd.

Yeh the crowd seemed pretty lame towards blur at coachella. Felt really bad for blur as they were giving it loads… they’re amazing live. Crowd gave zero back to the band. Anyone see Damon’s justifiable minor diva moment where he said to the crowd that “that you won’t be seeing us again, you may as well f*cking sing along” 😂 it did make me chuckle!

'Dad rock' for Tik Tok influencers. Blur solely went for the pay cheque & a nice holiday in CA.

I always thought Blur failed miserably in America apart from when 'Song 2' came out which did okay.

Yes I saw him in Liverpool. I was astonished that he was singing lyrics from an iPad because he couldn't remember them all (they're burned in my brain) and he kind of took a breath before hitting some of the higher notes and asked the audience in advance to help him with some of them! He joked that he's not going to pay for a warm-up band so he sings a few of his newer songs first which I really enjoyed as well like Omega Man and You've Got No Life Skills Baby. He had a cold the night I went so he was drinking hot lemon tea without any milk because he doesn't drink anymore he says. I was going to attach a video but it's too large. I really enjoyed hearing the whole set in full and it made me feel more nostalgic than I expected it to.

I saw him in Bath and his voice was in great shape. He doesn’t move much on stage now, but he can still sing like the old days. You’ll have a brilliant time!

I couldn't get time off for any of the Six gigs.

I did the AOTGL tour, and it was good reminiscing but a bit passive. He didn't really seem to be enjoying it.
Hopefully this is better

Paul Draper was done for stalking wasn’t he? I’ll pass.
Yep the Anchoress after the relationship ended.

I ended up on some FB group he is in and he's had a few ranty meltdowns there, he's clearly not well mentally

I'm still on the FB groups, but he's very quiet on social media these days. During the time that he and the Anchoress were working together they both frequently used to post and then delete sweary rants, it quite clearly not a healthy relationship for either of them.

I don't think he was actually convicted of the stalking, which doesn't necessarily mean he's innocent of course.

He clearly has issues but nothing will change my love for his music and his voice, Mansun are one of the most important bands to me and that will always be the case regardless of the behaviour of its members!
