Venue: Worthy Farm Location: Pilton, England, United Kingdom Date: June 28, 2009

In June 2009, Blur took to the iconic stage at Glastonbury Festival, showcasing their dynamic presence with a live performance of "Tender." This was a significant moment, marking a return to the spotlight after a lengthy hiatus. Just prior to this performance, the band had released **“Think Tank”** in 2003, which was a pivotal album that signaled a shift in their musical direction, embracing a more eclectic sound away from their Britpop roots. The Glastonbury performance came as part of their reunion tour, igniting nostalgia among die-hard fans while drawing in a new generation. Interestingly, this festival was notable for being one of the band’s first performances in years, which added an electric atmosphere to the crowd, filled with anticipation and enthusiasm. Their ability to weave old favorites with new material during this era demonstrated not only their musical evolution but also their undying connection with the audience.
