Dear readers,

Wow, what a journey it's been since Blurballs' "Country House" opened its doors in early 2010! Like a Magic Whip, time has flown, and here we are, more than a decade later in 2024, still buzzing with the the latest updated posts about Blur and the gang.

You've been there through the highs, the lows, and the Beetlebum moments, always ready to Tender your insights and share your Girls & Boys enthusiasm. It’s been an End of a Century kind of adventure, but instead of fading into the 1992 blur, we’ve danced through the years with Damon's melodies and Graham's riffs echoing in our hearts.

Your support has been as steady as the beat in Parklife, as vibrant as the chorus in Charmless Man. Every comment, every like, every shared post has been a Blur of activity, making our blog a true Great Escape for fans. You've turned our little corner of the internet into a bustling Bank Holiday, a festival of Blur's charm.

Together, we've traversed this Modern Life Is Rubbish world, turning each day into a celebration of Blur's music. From the melancholic strains of No Distance Left to Run to the energetic beats of Go Out, we've covered it all, with a bit of Gorillaz's feel-good incense thrown in.

As we Stand on the Horizon of more Blur-filled days, let's raise our Coffee & TVs to the memories we've shared and to the ones still to come. You're not just readers; you're our Band Mates in this Blur journey.

Here’s to more Song 2 yells, more Beetlebum whispers, and more days under the Westway.

Thank you for making Blurballs a Stereotype-busting, Charmless-Man-defying, Parklife-celebrating haven.

To the End and beyond,

Writers of Blurballs
