That story really is incredibly cool. I always love it when I hear stories from other fans who meet my favorite celebrities and report back that they're really nice and cool and everything. It makes me feel a lot better should I ever be lucky enough to get such a chance.

Says everything really. Happy birthday, hero.

Thanks for being sweet you guys! I love Damon fan stories, I've honestly never heard a bad one, he's incredibly kind. That was the last one I shared publicly tho. Pretty sure some tumblr people legit hated me and Laura after we kept hanging out with him last year so i stopped sharing whatever..

[Wintergreen]

Aw, that sucks. I'm sorry you had to deal with that.

Am I envious whenever I hear people talk about meeting someone I want to meet? Sure. But it's not their fault they were in the right place at the right time. And it's cool to hear the stories anyway, because they're always entertaining and interesting and fun, and I like knowing fans have such good experiences like that. So yeah, share away!

And you're welcome .

That's a darn shame, was looking forward to Prince Barry.

Damon out on his birthday lmao the peep show sign

also i have a full rocket juice d/l if anyone wants it i can private message it to you, i feel a bit bad giving away damon's stuff for free since honest jons is kind of a small record label, but i think privately is a little better then putting it on this thread publicly.

This is the single greatest thread/Forum thing to ever exist. Ever.

I found this... and started at page one. >< Sototallyworthit.

He then went on to say that he feels it might be the last song he ever writes for Blur, adding: "I don’t really do anything with Blur any more - there’s this concert this year but its not a full time thing at all. Maybe this tune's a last little coda to the whole story."

Damon: I never close the book on a project.
Graham: There will definitely be a new album.
Alex: There will definitely be no new album.
Damon: Don't count on a new album.
Graham: There will probably be a new album.
Damon: Maybe we'll release EPs.
Alex: We still meet up and play music.
Orbit: I am working in the studio with Damon and Graham.
Damon: We came up with a song about Notting Hill carnival, but it's not relevant anymore.
Dave: We're working on something.
Damon: Under The Westway could spell the end of Blur.

Your guess, my friend, is as good as mine.

I'm thinking they just want it to be a suprise and just want to hide the fact it was leaked.. It's kind of like the Gorillaz thing, the whole no one was originally supposed to know it was him? He isn't particularly the best with secrets and surprises I think.

Well he's either doing it because he wants everyone to believe nothing he says, or he's just being totally honest and they actually do have no idea what's going on.

If it's the first one, he can't keep messing us around and then give us no material, that's just mean.

If it's the second one... well they've been under the impression at least once that there will be a new record, that doesn't just come from one song, surely?

My bet is that there are a few bits and pieces of songs here and there. And they are working on something new, but it's taking a long time to figure out.

Well thing about that is, there was an interview, and for the love of god I can't remember where I saw it, but none-the-less, the interviewer asked about the rumors that he'd been practicing with Blur, and he was about to answer, then he leaned back and asked "Am I allowed to talk about that?" then he turned back and said "Its nothing... Yeah, it's nothing." SO possibly it's back and forth because someone is telling them not to discuss it, possibly?
