OH LORD, IT'S HARD TO BE HUMBLE...

Blur are going even more low-key than the last time they went wilfully and self-consciously low-key. They're planning to play "a couple of pubs" around Christmas, says Damon Albarn.

Might I suggest The Rhino in Chaddesden as a potential venue? That'll test their reflexes.

Why? Why? Why are they becoming so reductionist, you're wondering? Well, that's because they're releasing an EP that's not going to be actually by them, or something. "I think we're gonna do an EP first, sometime by the end of this year. But you probably won't know about it. It'll just 'come out'. It'll be so, sort of, underplayed. It'll come out but you won't know it's us as it'll be so, well, not us.". Got that?
Blur : yet, somehow, NOT Blur.
Cheap, I know. I couldn't help it.
