They're no One Direction more like One Dimension. About half a dozen decent toons and that's yer lot very limited with that lead singer.

Brilliant band, under-rated by wannabee music snobs that think it's cool not like them.

and what a load of pretentious bollocks about Knebworth.. bloody Robbie Williams did more dates which puts that in perspective...I can understand why people who were about 14 at the time would be impressed.

 toys out of pram baron |

By:
Robbiw Williams done more dates because Oasis decided to do 2 nights only at Nebworth. They could've done 10 nights
as 2.6million people applied for tickets. So that's more people who tried and didn't get tickets for Oasis that went to see Robbie.. |
|
By:
A lot of people like tat it sells very well.
|
|
By:
Yep all these millions of people are wrong and you are correct.
|
|
By:

|
|
By:
Loved Oasis and Brit pop from the 90s.
|
|
By:
The Stone Roses were miles better than Oasis plus they were United fans not fans of the oil rig
|
|
By:
Preferred the original version of Wonderwall
|
|
By:
I preferred the Mike Flowers version
|
|
By:
I think everybody who's picked up a guitar in the last 20 years prefers their own version.
I know I do. |

By:
According to this thread looks as if the "Leavers preferred Oasis and the Remoaners didn't..how very strange

If there's one thing the middle class and the privileged fear and despise it's people from the bottom of the social scale who are articulate and achieve something in life, especially if the latter don't care about being socially acceptable to those selfsame privileged types.
The Gallaghers were that in spades. Twenty years ago they invoked genuine hatred in a couple of people I know who were from that comfortable social profile, and who have both gone on to become Remainers and Stalinists (or Corbynist social democrats, as they prefer to call themselves). |

By:
ive never heard such twaddle , this is about musical abilty not political beliefs , the gallaghers are from Burnage which is about 5 miles from where i live and believe me there are far more under - privileged parts of Manchester
|
|
By:
good post sfbtw, I enjoyed hearing about the early life of oasis
and it was striking some of the similarities between their background and members of the Beatles |
|
By:
John Lennon was more like the Gallagher brothers than perhaps people realise
|
|
By:
Really lfc are you trying to say that Oasis were on the same level as the Beatles ?
|
|
By:
no I meant the story of the band and the people and where they came from , well the Beatles and that story was something like a miracle
|
|
By:
Oasis were not quite that , nothing could be .
But still it's a marvellous thing |
|
By:
I'm always intrigued by the early story before fame , Beatles in Hamburg in Liverpool those black and white days
Well it was the same in Manchester |
|
By:
I find it interesting that with the invention of rock and roll , well with the invention of the electric guitar really
Suddenly there was this explosion of musical talent , first in America and then England And it was ordinary young people who suddenly found they were able to write songs etc It makes you think what about the generations before who were equally talented ..but no one ever knew They were waiting for the invention of the electric guitar |
|
By:
Do you know just 2 guitars , drums , and a base guitar , that's all
Can be as musically intense and emotionally powerful as a complete symphony orchestra That's astonishing when you think about it |

Commercial radio played a big part too. It actually enabled those voices to be heard. Elvis heard the blues, and Lennon heard Elvis ... and eventually Noel Gallagher seems to have heard everything.
Mind you, at the same time those musical voices were emerging, so was literature from writers of a genuinely non-privileged background. Think of Len Deighton, born in the Marylebone Workhouse hospital ("trumps everybody's ace, doesn't it?" as he observes). It was the War, as much as anything, I think, which suddenly made a whole generation think they could be more than factory fodder. The War wrecked the lives of so many who entered it as young adults, but it somehow seems to have inspired those a few years younger to shake off the shackles. Maybe the experiences of their elders and parents from 1939 to 1945 meant that they were the first generation brought up with a sense of having nothing to lose, and a healthy disrespect of inherited authority. |
