When Damon Albarn isn't doing Monkey operas, Gorillaz and The Good The Bad And The Queen he might well be thinking about doing a Blur reunion. Now, after an "enjoyable lunch" with Graham Coxon - the one band member who might oppose a reformation - Albarn's up for it…
"It's very possible I'll go back to Blur, it really is very possible," Damon Albarn told the BBC. "The truth be known Graham and I have been hanging out together a bit. He's great, it's fantastic to get my old friend back. So it's good but I can't really say any more than that."
Graham Coxon left Blur in 2002, and - after recording 2003's Think Tank without him - Albarn stated he "felt uncomfortable" about continuing as a band.
A bit busy
It really wouldn't surprise MusicRadar if Blur did reform at some point. But, seeing as how Damon Albarn's opera, Monkey: Journey To The West, is on its way back to London and a new Gorillaz album hangs in a "halfway finished" balance, we don't recommend holding your breath.
Oh, and let's not forget that Coxon is currently recording with Pete Doherty. Maybe next year, then?
