The Blurs put on an amazing show that
night, and much to their fans' great pleasure, performed a broad
selection of tracks spanning their entire discography. The big hits
that topped the charts and the obscure sleeper b-side classics that
only the die hards knew the lyrics to, each wove one into another
blurring the lines between one piece and the next. It was a
celebration of thirty years of music that for three glorious hours
flowed like a river, at times peaceful and others powerful but always
beautiful to behold. A critic from the times who had never much been
a big supporter of The Blurs was forced to admit in his review of
the concert the next day that their music was “respectable enough
if you like that sort of thing” but was nothing short of impressed
with their ability to perform live and out of focus.
