Where did you hear the mention of a presale for the superfans.  I havent heard anything about that yet.  Just a general sale.  The Verve done that this year but I thought it was only to see how sales would do and if they should put on a second night.

his holiness nb

Saw them in Slane backing up REM right before the went huge. Then again a few years back in the Point, great live band, great band full stop.
Ask me holy bollix

Seen them in Philadelphia in '96. Worst concert I've ever attended.

the one in the summer of '96 with the manics supporting? you have cloth ears? that was a brilliant gig....also caught the manics play in Maxwells in Hoboken a few days before between supporting Oasis in NY and Philadelphia, $6 odd in, super night

Terrible band and very dull live.

Also a very high spide and lout count at their gigs.

Why did you go and see them if they are "terrible". I wouldnt be a huge fan but did see them in Odyssey in 2005 and it was a great concert.
I didn't really - they were at a festival.

was it at oxegen about 5 or 6 years ago by any chance?i saw them that time as well and it wasnt their best performance by a mile.
if you've never been to one of their gigs how do you know theres a high spide and lout count?
Firstly, i know people who worked in the Odyssey. I also heard the stories of fights in the crowd at one of the Odyssey gigs last time around. And i know the kind of crowd that follow Oasis - and i know that's a sweeping generalisation, but that generalisation impacts on the general tone of the crowd.
BTW, i think it was the Oxegen gig i was at.

Seen them 5 times - 2005 in the odyssey was the best one for me and I was sober ! (for a change)

Noel said today that they wouldnt play the 02 Area in London - it was too corporate....

10 Years of Noise and Confusion in the Barrowlands was without doubt the best Oasis concert ever.  Odyssey was good but Barrowlands was amazing.  Up close and personal and small crowd.

Gs Man - where did you hear about the pre release?

Saw Oasis at the point in the early/mid 90's.
Luckily I went the first night, as liam gallagher lost his voice after this and couldnt sing for the remaining three nights shows !

I was at one of the Liam-less nights and have to say it was a great night, but maybe my judgement was clouded by things other than the concert!  Saw them a couple of other times too, enjoyed them, but then again maybe I'm just easily pleased when it comes to live music  :)

It was shite. Arrived early enough to hear Liam and Noel fighting during the sound check while we were having a few beers outside. Entered the ground to find tattooed wankers trying to confiscate cameras, and Liam then pissed off after a few songs. Shit gig, shit atmosphere, shit band...

nahin yet.  got an email this morning but it just mentioned being able to buy exclusive tracks or something.  No mention of a pre-sale.  I'll keep an eye out tonight though.

my only problem with Oasis live is that the gigs are too short. generally 12 song sets for €80 can feel like a bit of a rip off!
Grand Slam Saturday!

The last two times in the point they played 18 songs both nights
