Alex James has an honorary degree. XD He was an A-student in high school aiming to do science at Oxford but failed his exams due to playing in a band instead of studying. Then he went to art school to study French lit and failed out due to playing in a band instead of studying. Then he became a rock star.

Blur are frightening overachievers. XD;; The three members who are not Graham are currently heading a digital animation software firm, an organic farm, and a multimedia entertainment complex respectively. That's besides running for Parliament, going to law school, publishing books, hosting TV series, flying planes, staging operas, organizing the Beijing-London Olympic handover, putting out a few records here and there, and so on. Ironically I was totally fine with them not reuniting the band as the upshot was Damon and Graham are putting out albums twice as fast. XD;
