To be fair, i don't really care.
Stalker? You're confusing me for the half-Spanish kid (his name, Carlos).

And now off topic (or what, should that be on topic), i feel that the Kilburn performance is my third favourite relesed gig, with Alexandra Palace at second. The latter is a good example of Blur at their most commercially successful time, whilst Kilburn is a good example of an early gig, in contrast to one of their later ones (Think Tank tour, not Hyde Park)

I never actually saw Hyde Park, so I'm not sure what to go for...

I can't remember the Princess Charlotte gig being in Starshaped? Or am I having a blank moment?

It has to be Hyde Park for me, Blur were great in 94 when Showtime was filmed, but the performance, the love and the sheer scale of such a huge gig wins for me. I did like the energy in Showtime, but then again Hyde Park had that too.

Kilburn was ok to see how they started out but its a million miles away from whow they evolved as performers.

Yep, though I've thrown out the VHS player a long time ago.. I heard the quality of the DVD wasn't all that, so I never bothered getting it.
