Last Friday, Blur announced they would headline Belgium's Rock Werchter festival next July, and teased more live dates to come. They didn't keep us waiting long. According to a tweet from Primavera Sound festival, Blur have added two more gigs to the calendar:
BLUR ( @blurofficial ) WILL PLAY AT PRIMAVERA SOUND 2013 #PS13 #OPS13 twitter.com/Primavera_Soun…
— Primavera Sound (@Primavera_Sound) October 8, 2012
Blur are confirmed to play Primavera Sound in Barcelona, Spain, on 5/24/2013, and in Porto, Portugal, on 5/31/2013. Still an ocean away from where I'm sitting. But, as the band stated on their Facebook page today:
We're off to Primavera next summer, Barcelona and Oporto here we come. More as we know it…
I'll take that second sentence as a good sign. More, please!
