Blur Set For Glastonbury

There is some exciting news about Glastonbury 2009.

It has been revealed that Blur are set to play there as part of their fantastic return

Rumours have been flying around for a long time, building up fans anticipation. Well, front man Damon Albarn has finally announced that Blur will be performing at this summers festival.

“Yeah, we’re doing Glasto this year” he commented.“We need a few more warm-up gigs to get back into it, ready for the big one. Glastonbury’s great.”

It is believed that the band first began to implode in 2002 when Graham Coxon was reportedly asked to leave during the making of Blurs seventh album ‘Think Tank’ . It was apparently because he didn’t turn up for recording sessions.

Therefore, Blur have not toured since 2003, but now they could be coming to Glastonbury.

However, despite all of the excitement, the news has not been confirmed, as yet. So we will have to wait and see.

If Blur do make it, they will be joining other headliners set to play at Worthy Farm,Pilton in Somerset. Such as the legendary Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.

The Glastonbury Festival lasts for five days from Wednesday the 24th to Sunday te 28th of June 2009.
