Is it my imagination or has the music industry comeback… made a comeback? Blur have announced a one-off Wembley stadium show for July 2023 and Pulp are touring next summer. Pulp are reuniting for a second time and Blur last played a full UK set at Hyde Park in 2015.
Of course, my first thought, as a reasonable person, was: is there any way of stopping this, can we call in mediators? I’ll do it if you give me a megaphone and a modest fee. My thinking was: maybe they could still be talked out of participating in this naff and historically most dreaded of music industry ritual humiliations: the comeback, reunion, call it what you will.
