They can’t even get in the same room for the publicity shots. From stills posted from their announcement video this morning it looks like they did have a photo shoot together 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullerene Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 I wonder if they will do a brilliant new album on how much they hate each other similar to ABBA or Fleetwood Mac. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are both pivotal in each others success and vast wealth they were always going to do a reunion tour. They’ll probably come back one more time in their mid 60’s like Rolling Stones did. Noel has been interviewed fairly recently saying he was speaking to Liam and was getting on with him. He also said that he didn't see the point in a reunion because he couldn't really see the point of it as they had done everything they wanted to (which I agree with). Looks like financial incentives have won out but I don't see anything to suggest they havent been in contact/have been arguing with each other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 As much as I like them, the band I want to see back together and touring is R.E.M. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JS_FFC Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 Liam also has been dedicating Half the world away to “My brother, the greatest songwriter ever” and also covering a NGHFB song all year. There have been signs of a thawing for a very long time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSJ.84 Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 I was 10 when they split up so whilst I was aware of them, I wasn’t ever able to see them live. Very chuffed about this and will likely pay silly money for tickets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Barrowlands on their ‘Green’ tour was like being in a sauna. Unbelieveably hot. The other time I saw them was in the Air Canada Centre in Toronto later on in their career. Brilliant live. R.E.M are a band who also attract comments like Oasis - ‘they were shite after they released…’ Same as Oasis, cherry pick the great stuff from their ‘shite period’ and it stands up.

A Diamond For Me Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 Oasis aren't my cup of tea. They've a handful of songs I enjoyed as a teenager, but I've never felt the urge to buy any of their stuff. I'd put them in the "guess you had to be there" category, personally. I hope everyone going has a nice time - and what a marvellous boost for the hard-working folk of the cocaine industry in this difficult financial climate. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 The hype surrounding this is off the scale today, but in amongst the front page news stories and in-depth BBC website articles, has it been mentioned anywhere who Liam and Noel’s backing band will be? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favourite R.E.M. song comes from Around the Sun, which is commonly considered their worst album. And seeing as this is the Oasis thread this is probably my favourite Oasis song, also released during what is considered their "shite" period. Also literally just realised as I watched it just now who the actor is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozam76 Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 10 hours ago, Lurkst said: As for Oasis, the only time I ever saw them was in the big top on Irvine beach in 1995 with The Verve in support. Some Might Say had just gone to number one and they were mid transition from the indie charts to being a mainstream phenomena. Absolutely insane atmosphere and impossible to recreate or better. Irvine Beach is a wish I was there for me. Reflecting today I saw them in Aberdeen, Finsbury Park, Murrayfield, SECC, and Balloch. Most memorably though was the first time, which was Ingliston in Jan 1996. An incredible experience. None of their other gigs were as magical for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
