Old Seymour live video surfaces online

A historic Seymour live footage has been uploaded to YouTube today (Dec 8). The video, which may be the oldest one featuring Damon, Graham, Alex and Dave, shows Seymour performing "Superman" at the Harlow Square on 18th December 1989.

The video has been stored over the years by the gig organiser scissorkicks who says that more footage from the same gig may appear in the upcoming Blur documentary No Distance Left To Run.

Meanwhile, more interesting facts and memories about Seymour's early gigs can be found from Rhodri Marsden's blog. Rhodri was an on-off member of The Keatons who were supported by Seymour numerous times in late 1980s (including the gig at The Square).

Update added December 10, 2009:

Sadly, the video is not available for public viewing anymore. Scissorkicks has posted an announcement explaining why did this happen.
