Quick highlights and a short interview...
Footage of Blur performing at the 100 Club last week has emerged online - watch it below.
Blur's re-union has been marked by special, seminal shows. Set to perform at Hyde Park this month as part of the Olympic closing ceremony, the band agreed to play a one off warm up in London.
Taking place at the 100 Club, the show came at the behest of Converse' Represent project. Fans crammed into the historic venue, and Blur responded with a set which fuses classic material with lesser heard rarities.
Footage of the show has now emerged online, complete with a short Blur interview. Also starring: Swiss Lips, The Bots and essential Brighton newcomers Savages.

Meanwhile, Damon Albarn is continuing to tease fans with the promise of new material. Speaking to The Sun, Damon Albarn admitted that the Hyde Park show would be their "last gig in the country this year and probably for a long time".
He then added: "But that doesn't mean it's the end of Blur. If someone wanted us to do an album for a film I'd definitely be interested in something like that. So that's the offer."
Go on Damon... you know it makes sense!
