Ahh, you got tickets?
Nice one! Damn. I haven't been to a gig in ages. I should get some lined up realy. How are camera obscura? I think I've listened to a few of their songs at some point.

Yeah, but not for Hyde Park.
Just an arena thing. Can't wait. You might get a ticket if you look... I love Camera Obscura. They have that wall-of-sound thing going on most of the time, all symphonic and Phil Spector-ish. Like a poppier B&S I suppose.

Even so, it's still Blur.

Welcome!
And seriously, try to get a ticket. Where in the country are you? I got Manchester tickets with ease :-)

Thanks!
It'd be great to see them live - and yes, nostalgic. I remember listening to them in school.

Ah, school
I once sang along to Girls and Boys with the girl who used to bully me. It was a beautiful moment. We'd moved on, she was no longer beating me up and calling me names. I have still rejected her invitations THREE TIMES on facebook though. I'm not an idiot.

Mutual bonding over Blur
Not bad! And yeah, I've noticed a spurt of old school "friends" adding me on facebook. Must be something in the water.

They're just being nosey
They want to rifle through your profile. And laugh. I was tempted to accept. So she could see that I'm ok nowadays etc etc. But I don't care enough to open some bloody portal!

Huh. The noseyness I don't exactly understand
I mean, who realy wants to know how someone you went to school with is doing 5 years on? Apart from 2 or 3 good friends I honestly don't think I'd recognise half the people that I went to school with, let alone want to be friends with them or find out how they're doing or whatever. And yeah, I understand not wanting to open a portal or something.
