Damon Albarn hints at Blur O2 show

Damon Albarn has hinted Blur will play London’s O2 arena.

The 'Beetlebum’ singer – who recently revealed he had repaired his friendship with former guitarist Graham Coxon – indicated the band are considering playing a reunion concert at the massive venue.

Damon said: 'I went over to see Kanye West at the O2 this week and it was good. Do I miss all of that? Not really, but I’ll probably do it again at some point.'

When asked which of his groups – Blur, Gorillaz or The Good, The Bad and The Queen – Damon would play there with, the frontman simply smiled enigmatically.

However, earlier this week Damon said a reunion for Blur – who released their last album, 'Think Tank’ without Graham in 2003 – was looking increasingly likely.

He said: "I can tell you genuinely that I'm getting on really well with Graham at the moment, so it's distinctly possible."

Damon’s opera 'Monkey: Journey to the West’ runs at London’s O2 arena until December 5.
