Ten or so years ago you would have got some pretty long odds on a potential Noel Gallagher and Blur collaboration but, showing that time heals all wounds, Gallagher himself is hoping to share a stage with Damon Albarn and Graham Coxon at a Teenage Cancer Trust benefit concert next year.
Gallagher is on board as a curator of a series of shows which will take place at London's Royal Albert Hall and said in a press conference yesterday that he would love to play with Albarn and Coxon.
"They'll be playing Blur songs, I would think. I'll be playing mine. Will we share the stage together? I hope so. I'm up for it. It's always good to have a little jam", said Gallagher.
"I'd initially wanted Blur to do it, because they've never done it", he continued. "I was on tour with Graham, and asked him, and he said Blur has kind of been put to bed. It went back and forth, and they said they'd do it. And yeah: 10 years ago, who'd have thought it?"
