i saw the Blur/Pulp thing in Los Angeles in what must have been 1994. I saw them again in San Francisco, when i lived there, in 1996.

I really, really wanted to go when they toured America behind Different Class but I was only 15 and I probably just wasn't able to arrange it. I wish I had at least gotten the poster from the record store. I still think about it.

Jarvis Cocker has sparked rumours of a Pulp reunion, saying he'll "think about it a little bit more".Although Jarvis dismissed rumours Pulp would be performing at next year's Glastonbury Festival, he admitted the furore surrounding these allegations caught his imagination.He told this week's NME: "I suppose it made me think a little bit - the fact that people did seem interested, that made me think about it a little bit more."

So how about we start rumors about The Smiths headlining and get all rabid so Moz sits up and takes notice?

Also we can all wish for a billion, zillion dollars each.
So, they're reforming?

jarvo said on aus telly a week or so ago that they weren't..

i was surprised at how vitriolic russell was about jarvis's 'pop star' era in a recent interview for a MOJO special. he left because he got sick of all the attention he was getting but reading jarvis's interviews circa the late 90s you'd never have guessed there was any animosity between them. it's true it was never the same when he left, no matter how good some of the tunes were.

They have reformed and will play at the Primavera Sound festival in Barcelona in May 2011.

my rule: it's not a reformation unless there's FRESH MATERIAL

So, it's a 'reunion' at this point, right?

the line-up: Nick Banks, Jarvis Cocker, Candida Doyle, Steve Mackey, Russell Senior, Mark Webber

I never saw them first time around but I would see them if they came to my town. I hope this reunion lasts.

Metro this morning said they haven't played for 15 years. Which is odd, cos I could've sworn I saw them a couple of times around 99-01

This line-up has not played for 15 years.

Who else left apart from Russell Senior, who isn't even listed as being in the reformed band in Metro?

Dunno but they're wrong, he is in this reunion.

first gig for 9 years tonight in Toulouse apparently. funny place for a comeback. chatter about the gig, setlist etc here:http://baritalia.activeboard.com/t43039550/spoiler-2505-setlist-in-le-bikini-toulouse/

That setlist is surprisingly narrow in it's scope. What, 95% His'n'Hers and Different Class?

So like.. 100% what people want to hear? I kid, I kid. I can't believe Manon didn't make it either.

Me too. I made a joke last night that we should go to Europe and see Pulp for our honeymoond and fiance was like... yeah, no. Then told me *maybe* if Arcade Fire were also there, because he's always trying to get me to turn around on them. Sadly they are together in Ireland a week before his vacation. And he probably wasn't serious anyway. Le sigh!

(I will send them an A4-size version of this placard to them beforehand, so they can rehearse it first, as it'll be shit otherwise).

It's never coming back to the setlist. Face it. It's gone.

I don't know, I think it's pretty awesome that they played fucking Countdown in their comeback set.
Still, I'll be the one in the crowd at Wireless chanting "Tun-NEL! Tun-NEL!"
