Scary Transit's Stream-of-consciousness

Damon Albarn biography

Disclaimer:  Please understand that this bio was written in early 1997.   Scary Transit knows that much of the following information is inaccurate and outdated.  Still she thinks she is very funny.  (And may Baby Transit add that Scary now knows a hell of a lot more about Blur... maybe too much... in a charming way).

Damon Albarn was born in Whitechapel Hospital somewhere in or around London.  I don't know where, but I do know it supposedly gives him the excuse for a cockney accent.   Damon's parents are both artists, and his dad even taught at an art school in Colchester.  Damon's parents used to help Graham with his art.  That's not why Damon and Graham became friends though.  Graham and Damon met each other at school in Colchester.  Damon was a year ahead of Graham, not so much because he was advanced, but more because he was a year older.  Even today, Damon is a year older than Graham.   Damon is an Aries.  He was born on the same day as my friend Dayna, who is one crazy girl.  She was born a good eight years later than Damon though.  Still, I bet they're a little similar, if you buy into astrology stuff.  Damon plays the piano, but he played violin in school.  The piano is a challenging instrument, but Damon sure makes it seem easy.  I'm sure the violin is hard too, but I've never tried to play it.  Damon went to acting school, but decided he wanted to be a musician.   He ended up in a band named Seymour which ended up being called Blur.  He's the singer for the group, and he likes to point out that he writes most of the songs.   He sometimes plays the guitar too, but still it's not very campfire song sounding (see Graham's fake bio).  He has a really good voice for pop music.  I'm a singer too, but I sound awful on pop music.  I guess I'll leave that to Damon.   Damon is known for being confrontational and arrogant.  He always seems very nice in interviews though- even though he might be a tad cocky.  We know two girls who met Damon.  They thought he was arrogant before they met him, but ended up liking him a lot.  Damon is also known for being good looking, and that he is.  Damon doesn't seem to mind talking to the media as much as Graham and Dave do.  Maybe that's why every one knows a lot more about Damon's personal life.  Like, for example, his relationship with Justine Frischman from Elastica.  My friend Dayna with Damon's birthday likes Elastica.  I think that's cosmic.  But he don't care if I live or die.  That is why I love him, I love love him.
