Oasis reunion

Supersonic on Channel 4. Lovely stuff.

No dates or tickets for Buenos Aires at the River Plate stadium on Ticketmaster.

Strange that.

 

[Eric Hitchmough]

I can’t even begin to describe how good it was tonight. Hands down the best gig I’ve ever been to.

They’re absolutely on fire.

The South Americans are actually fairly mad fer it

I went by myself to a tiny picture house in Greenwich, one of the few places to screen it before release , was blown away by how good that doc was.

I'm a natural cynic, but i love original footage, this is a nice film in the similar style of Asif Kapadia (but he did it without words, ish), but this is very interesting. Can't believe I've never seen it before. Pair of fucking dick heads :D

 

[Pezzer2]

Fuck that. They were awful. That Saturday Etihad gig could have been the worst gig I have ever been to.

Must have been where you was stood/sat. It was epic , probably my favourite gig

+100

Absolutely incredible. Can't believe anyone doubted them. I don't think anyone around me sat down once, bellowing the lyrics to every track verbatim. I loved that little nod to The Beatles during Whatever.

And Richard Ashcroft, what a fucking talent he is.

Liam G's silly tweet has got Man City China's highest complaint levels. The ill-advised "because we need each other" post on Weibo was seen as backing for Liam and his racist slur post. Oasis won't be playing China any time soon.

Tried explaining to a few Chinese mates that Liam is not the shiniest apple on the cart and that he was likely not thinking. The level of abuse and accusations of racism-sympathiser was astounding. You can't defuse something when emotions are high. Really took the shine off the excitement of a great comeback.

When faced with such situations, the response Chinese people often get from Westerners is, "We don’t care." But the problem is, Westerners aren’t the only ones who can say, "we don’t care"—those Chinese can just as well say, "We don’t care." So why bother making such precise distinctions for these racists? Liam doesn’t represent his brother? Oasis doesn’t represent Manchester City? You can’t act indifferent when you’re in the wrong, then turn around and demand others meticulously analyze all your excuses. In reality, those Chinese don’t care either—they’ll just say, "Manchester City is a racist club." They might even derive some sadistic pleasure from it, after all, not all Chinese fans are Manchester City fans.

The review from last night from my missus is in.

Euphoric, amazing, fantastic. A lot of piss thrown about.

The review from my day drinking around Gloucester is in.

A few nice pubs, shit hole of a centre, lovely dock area.

Liam Gallagher is not a racist because he posted the words chingchong in a tweetstorm of various nonsensical sounding words.

And you don't speak for the whole of China either. It's weird how you've given yourself that mantle.

I've never even heard of the phrase, perhaps LG hadn't really heard it much either so didn't understand it's connotations? I certainly wouldn't have known.

I have no idea what Liam said I don't do social media. But is the fuss all over that Liam used the words chingchong ?

I don't know the context so can't really comment. But it does seem very woke and snowflake and wanting to be upset.

I might be wrong

 

[Churchlawtonblue]

Glad they sounded good. I saw them at MR in 96, when they were at the height of their powers. Saw LG a couple of times since and his voice was poor the last time I saw him. So pleased he's back on form.

Used in the 70's a lot. Ching chong chinaman.

Lots of people can't wait to be offended these days.

Cast had a blast in Cardiff

Honestly never heard of it before. I would have guessed it wouldn't have been the best thing to say in this day and age but, I wouldn't have realised it was that offensive?

Would imagine Liam is getting a little help from auto tune along the way
