Oasis Reunion (11 Viewers)

How come the the other band members are being forgotten about. I get the brothers being the main focus but it's not like they're backed by a bunch of random session musicians. Even the 'band' photos are just the two of them.

I thought this, is it just stand in's on the drums and bass guitar?

I think only the drummer is completely new to Oasis? Bonehead is quite prominent and a few of the other guys who were part of it later on are playing these shows as well. It's very much promoted as 'Liam, Noel and pals' as you'd expect though

If I was an Oasis fan I'd be wanting to go and see Oasis. Not like it's a band which had a revolving door of members. I would have far less interest in going to see Liam, Noel and pals.

It's being promoted similarly to when the Robinson brothers got back together and created a new Black Crowes line up to tour arenas & stadiums in the US with nobody who had previously been in the band. Which is strange to me when nobody can argue that this is a proper Oasis line up.

I’m not sure you’d want to see them with the original drummer, he was rubbish.

If you can't get tickets for the real thing maybe you'll be interested in this

Now I wasn't there, but calling it the best they've been live since 1995 feels like hyperbole considering how much the Knebworth, Earl's Court, Gmex and Wembley gigs are still spoken about


"I have seen Oasis many, many times and this was the best they've been since 1995, when I caught them supporting REM at Ireland's Slane Castle"

Everything is about hype these days. Has to be the best ever or world beating.

Seems impossible for anyone to just say it was a good gig and they had fun.

I’m in a few music groups and it drives me mad, every day there’s ’best gig ever’ posts.

The set list is not the best, what you'd expect a tribute act to play

But that's effectively what we are going to see. In terms of original band members, Bonehead is the only one. Both Andy Bell and Gem Archer are later additions after Bonehead and Guigsy left and the drummer is completely new and never drummed with Oasis but got the gig from touring with LG and John Squire. Aka, Liam, Noel, and pals

I'd be amazed if he does more than a couple of songs, probably with a backing track like his last few 'live' appearances. Think the best case scenario is he's well enough to sit on his throne and watch other artists guest with his solo band and Sabbath.

tbh that is by far the better option. I haven't seen Ozzy live in years and back then he was struggling massively

i'm not a massive fan, but i fully acknowledge what they did back in the day.
just look at the support bands. that's some line up, and a massive show of respect to them.

this gig is either a very brave thing to do, or very stupid. but i do hope it goes well.
it's amazing that they are all still around, that's a minor miracle in itself.

Seen the line up for Black Sabbath - 30 odd mins for Ozzy but I guess various members may tip up in other sessions - would love to be there but Brum is a no go

I dunno mate, I think I prefer his early stuff.

Sabbath gig is on IPTV. Didn't expect it to be

My first time at Heaton Park too. I'm buzzing to see Ashcroft again. Haven't seen him since IoW 2016.

Us aswell next Saturday-Heaton park. If you are driving let me know where you managed to park.
As others have said the Ricoh gig was really the beginning of the end and seemed a bit effortless at the time but really looking forward to them both on stage again at last instead of with the separate bands.
Seen them both separately on a few occasions after the fall out. Couldn’t really get on with the beady eye stuff but High Flying Birds have a few decent tunes.
When we were looking at the time hotels in the area were over a grand for 2 nights which was just silly. We are heading up on the Friday and staying 2 nights and managed to bag a hotel for £210 but 30 mins drive away which I don’t mind for a saving of over a grand!
