Seat68 Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Will it be with Barry and Stig or just the mouthy clowns. Enquiring minds need to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Another reason not to go to Glastonbury next year... Saw them headline there way back and they were typically obnoxious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 A pair of words removed with mostly bang average to shite songs, elevated by a few early actual bangers. Who also suffer from having some truly obnoxious cult fans. Happy Monday guys Obviously each to their own and hope anyone going enjoys it. But they really are massive dickheads 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted August 26 Moderator Share Posted August 26 The real question is of course, how many Oasis fans will be going cold turkey just to afford the tickets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 (edited) I'll get you some tickets Bicks. You must be a fan considering how you keep commenting on them The excitement is building. Edited August 26 by Xela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 I get the dislike of them as people and they're never going to be held up as musical prodigies but they are THE anthem band of the 90's. I wont be joining the clamour for tickets but I always think you have to hand it to bands who even people who aren't fans of know a lot of the words to their songs. To not recognise this sort of reach as impressive is where the musical snobbery kicks in imho. I absolutely loved definitely maybe at the time and also owned what's the story. Slide away still gets a nod of approval. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To pick another act whose peak was the same era, I'd wager a far greater number of people could sing along to a Spice Girls medley than could an Oasis medley. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 I’m surprised they’re gonna do Glastonbury as it’s clearly a cash grab and Glasto doesn’t pay that well. It’s not really their crowd either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're veering very close to the 'define famous' argument again (Waldemar Januszczak vs. that woman whose name I've already forgotten).

I'd say the same thing applies myself, love them or hate them, people of all ages/colours/creeds etc still know them. In the same way that even Bicks could probably sing along (ok mutter under his breath-edly) with The Beatles. There's something of worth in that imo is all I'm saying. (And not that he would choose to) Many memories from my pub days of new years eve/wedding discos and the like where the whole room just starts singing along with Oasis, whereas stick the charlatans or similar on and there'll be lots of quizzical faces who don't know what they're listening to. I always think that's the definition of an Anthem band for me. See also Queen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 I wonder if they’ve settled on a lineup? Maybe they have Gem and Bonehead making the band a 6 piece. Who on bass and drums? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 The thing I enjoy about the stick they receive, is that it's typically what they say about themselves Even they regularly say they don't know why they became what they became, they just enjoyed the ride as much as the fans did. And they were arrogant. They came from sitting in bedrooms smoking weed in shitholes in Manchester, to being globally famous at the age of 19 in Liam's case, he didn't know how to behave. Doesn't excuse it, but it's a reason. A lot like a lot of good young footballers these days.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
