We love a good bit of 90s nostalgia here at JOE, so Blur’s open-air gig in Hyde Park was always going to be right up our street.
The Britpop favourites produced an epic 23-song set, including tracks from new album The Magic Whip, as part of the British Summer Time festival.
Frontman Damon Albarn ignored the less-than-summery conditions to hand out ice cream to lucky punters in the front row, while fans of Blur’s 90s material were treated to popular earlier hits including The Universal and There’s No Other Way.
Among the other highlights was a rendition of Parklife, where the London band were joined on stage by former EastEnders actor Phil Daniels.
