With all the activity in the Blur camp, fans on this side of the pond have been wondering if they’ll get a taste of the action. Rumors are pointing to some US dates later this year. To coincide with the live shows, the band’s label is prepping a compilation for those who might have missed out on Blur the first time around. It’s a dollar-sign deal to be sure, but the track listing is interesting, if it speaks to what the band might be thinking in terms of setlists. The 25-track double disc set is called Midlife: A Beginners Guide To Blur and is set for release on June 15 by EMI.
