Alex James writes in his
latest column to The Independent that Blur were
very close of performing at this year's Glastonbury Festival.
"Blur very nearly played
Glastonbury this year, and there was a pang of regret when I
heard Damon's mum had nixed it at the eleventh hour."
Despite the cancellation,
Alex appears to be quite happy they never made it to the stage: "I was
looking forward to showing off to Claire and the kids, but I
suppose the important thing was to have been asked, and
listening to all that screaming I felt pleased about how
things had turned out."
He concludes with optimistic
words: "I'm sure it'll happen one day".
