Very interesting numbers! The hype for this "reunion" is off the scale.

Well I thought oasis was a band not a duo. they might aswell change their name to the proclaimers.

I'd be interested in going to watch a concert with the origional band members, the street gang from manchester... not the brothers and a load of dull ass public school session musicians.

the best album was definatly maybe and this is the lineup I would like to watch with the origional drummer who hit the drums really hard and certainly not the 2nd guy who played with brushes. Also the origional bass player who only played the top string. Somethings are more important that ability.

After the first album and b sides the rest of their music is utter dirge. like coldpay. not to mention their nursery rhyme lyrics.

Too true, you can’t replicate chemistry.

If it’s there then it’s there, if you replace an element then it’s gone.

 

I’ve found this with all major bands I like. Their first albums are always the best, they imprint something onto you- where you were at the time, what was going on, your relationships and social climate. From listening to any of the songs you’ll most likely recall a lot of what I just described. Second albums- not so much. 
First albums have their raw, gritty chaotic energies in every song. 
Every subsequent album is just the band trying to recreate the magic from the first album- de facto. 
 

When me and band were recording one of our EPs, they got me to drum along with a metronome in my earphones in the studio. Sure I played in perfect time, but the groove/funk and energy just wasn’t there, and as a result the song sounded flat and boring.

 

This is an example of how when you change a tried and tested formula or try to ‘standardise’ or ‘suppress’ a natural musical inclination, a mediocre result is achieved.

you can't intellectualise feeling. Oasis make people feel something. They stood for something for the average folk, and who are we to tell them different? If you want to go down the snobbery route, you'll end up in jazz.

Point taken, but what are these people feeling? These, as you say, average folk. The Oasis discography is, even their best high points from the early couple of albums, nothing but a corral for the lumpen proletariat to revel in their décadence. No reaching for anything better, no progression. Just a bunch of drinking songs, and oh, do the fans like a drink. Which is absolutely fine, do what you want, of course.The Gallagher’s Beatles obsession could have propelled them to Sgt Pepper, White album, or Abbey Road levels of creativity, but no. Why? Isn’t Noel inspired enough by those things? It was never his goal. This far, but no further. And all the Oasis fans want is a new album that is like Definitely Maybe. Stuck in the familiar, unwilling to or unable to evolve. Or maybe they just want to feel like that. Cozy. bog standard mainstream. I was there and saw it all. Meanwhile you had many other branches of music blossoming in creative ways. Oasis is nothing but a familiar pub for football fans, and people who aren’t really interested in music, mainly booze and some cocaine. And you just got suckered in by the brothers mantra that they are the best band in the world. Several thousand bands I can think of can make that claim sound like infantile crap that it is. But hey, enjoy the psy-op, keep reading the newspapers, and keep drinking that beer.

Kinda off topic here slightly. but I find it hard to believe that Paul here is the same Paul from the Beatle Mania Beatles period (pre 1966). The eyebrows are very wrapped around and early Paul didn't have brows like that. The eyebrows seem to change alot. I know some will debunk the PID thing.

Never liked them as people, always had an uneasy vibe about those two, one or two of their songs were OK but that's about it.

Significant that they chose Cardiff of all places to begin the tour? That place is full of symbolism and dark power.

 

It's not like they're Welsh or something. Manchester or Liverpool would have been a natural venue.

Yes that's what I have wondering. When I heard they were in Cardiff I kept thinking "why Cardiff?" why not Manchester or Liverpool.

I wonder what the deal is with Oasis as a band in the grand scheme of things in the music industry?. What agenda or social engineering do they play, if any?. I wonder who was the brains behind the naming of the band? I couldn't image the Gallagher brothers coming up with a name like that off the top of their heads, and I wonder if there's some deeper meaning behind the name. Like em or not you have to admit they have a huge following.

As usual its all a scam.  some spook who was working for the labour party called darren kalynuk tapped up the group  in the early 90s. the essex band Blur were the first target but the torys had nicknamed tony blair "tony blur" so they distanced themselves and infiltrated the oasis camp instead.  It was all PR to schmooze New Labour into power by getting  cool musisians to name check blaire in the magazines teenagers read such as Smash hits magazine. and also hit TV shows like one called Our Friends in the North carried a heavy (Labour)poliitcal message and used Oasis music. The reward for this was the media would hype them up ( probably give them the best songs written by Tavistock ghost writers)and they go on to be mega stars. This is all documented in a book called the last party by jon harris.

I have to be careful here. A late relative of mine lived around the corner from the 'family'. She was notoriously anti Irish, but was convinced the unruly brood of scruffy kids would amount to nothing. 🤔 😁
