The Angry Budgie on Tour - Blur Hyde Park 2nd July 2009

Right sorry for taking so long to post this, the gf booked two tickets to go and see Blur for the first of their two days at Hyde Park. We tagged on a couple of extra days in London to do the sightseeing bit too!

Ill admit that Blur are not my thing, I was more an Oasis fan back in the day. But I know the songs and was looking forward to it anyway! We stayed just of Hyde Park so had a nice stroll through the park to the venue. After Download a couple of weekends before hand, its funny to see all the food stalls and bars that must do the festival circuit! Tuborg must have a monopoly on festival beer too!

So cant really remember the support act but hey ho onto Blur. A darn big stage saw the return of Blur and the crowd go wild! The band looked pretty happy too! Ill admit most songs I wasn't 100% familiar with but I was with the hits. Thanks to good weather and good music it was a top evening. Though ill admit to wanting Blue to play Song 2 on repeat for 2 hours!

But they couldn't so highlights were:

'There's no otherway'
'Park Life'
'Girls and Boys'
'Country House'
'Tender'
'Beetlebum'
'Coffee and TV'

and 'Song 2'

So even though im not a big fan, I enjoyed the gig and our time in London village!

Anyway as mentioned sorry for the lack of updates, its the summer slow season!
But upcoming highlights of the blog will be going on tour to The Offspring, Holland (again!) and DragonForce. Plus things will get exciting in the run up to the new season! So keep peeps!
