Half a dozen?
Easily twice as many, imo

Stone Roses are one album and a few singles

Here's my thing about Blur.

I really didn't like it when they had crops and Fred Perry's and DMs. Same when they started wearing Fila tracksuit tops and Lois jeans. They're posh boys, and that felt like some weird cultural appropriation. Don't trust 'em.

No, just Sunday’s gig.

Definitely got the better support on Sunday with Paul Weller and also The Selecter, not to mention Steve “interesting” Davis on the decks.
