Blur - The Universal (Wolverhampton Civic Hall, 24th June 2009)

Epic finish to an epic gig... the freeze frame at the end is intentional; the last 10 secs or so of video were jacked, and it was either that or lose the end of the song. (Unless that is you think it looks good this way, in which case I'll just pretend it was purely for artistic reasons :P )

Ok you video'd it - so I guess you have the whole gig? Did they actually use the piano that was on stage at any point? My mate Ade & I are certain they didn't but cant think why they would bother to have it there if not!!!

There was a piano at Hyde Park last week that didn't get used either lol xxx

Didn't record the whole thing, sorry - was concentrating on enjoying the gig / singing along. What I've put up on YT is 90% of what I recorded. The keyboard player was right outside of my field of vision behind Alex so I don't really know what he / she was up to. Don't remember hearing piano on any song though.

Wow, great vid! thanks for uploading, I was sat at the front in row A . What a great gig. By the way the freeze frame at the end works beautifully! Perfect!

[sighkid]

Glad you liked it :) I do like the freeze frame now; rather than simply use the very last frame I could've (before everyone stood up and blocked the view) I sacrificed an extra second or two of video to use a more appropriate frame instead. It works quite well; I should maybe try it again sometime on a different video.

This video is amazing, I went there aswell but I missed the atmosphere as I was at the soundcheck. on the plus side I did have a convo with Damon and the group. Fantastic Afternoon/ Evening.
