The bassist suggests that plans are unfolding

Blur bassist Alex James has again suggested that a reunion is unfolding.

Speaking to DJ Simon Mayo on BBC Radio 5 Live yesterday (December 6) the bassist admitted that he met erstwhile guitarist Graham Coxon recently.

James said : “I saw Graham last week. There may be some news there but I don’t want to rush anything.”

As previously reported , Coxon recently admitted he would consider rejoining the Britpop legends.

Asked about a reunion he said : “I haven’t been approached about it. I think about it : would it be fun? Would it be a bit too scary? What would the dynamic be in a studio? Would I have to do promotion? Would I tour? You know, it’s a lot of thinking."
