In an era when the elder statesmen of rock might start to consider hanging up their microphones and leather pants, Blur stomped onto Britain’s biggest stage this weekend to stake their claim for the big time.
Playing two nights at Wembley, Europe’s second-largest sports stadium, is a bold move for a group with humble indie roots, but lack of ambition has never been a problem for Damon Albarn and his bandmates, who returned from hiatus to tour Europe this summer. Blur quite simply knock it out of Wembley’s capacious park, playing a superbly varied setlist of both hits from their mid-1990s heyday, and more reflective album tracks.
On the tearaway anthems such as “Song 2,” “Parklife” and “Girls and Boys,” few other acts can match Blur for their infectious energy and singalong magic, but their unique quality is the way they effortlessly change gears – a move that also gives the more mature members of the audience time to catch their breath.
