Oasis 10 years of noise and confusion

Mental at the front that one!

My one and only Bowie gig. Most people around me were bored rigid (me included) as he didnt do any of the hits until either Rebel Rebel or Gene Genie at the end and that was it. Think the Glass Spider was a double album and he just went through that on the night.

Was more entertained by Alison Moyet and Terence T Darby.

Went to see Bowie at Milton Keynes Bowl few years earlier and was excellent but saw Glass Spider at Wembley whilst propping up stage with broken ankle so could see him checking time incessantly and backing singer covering most of his songs - not impressed.

I was there. First gig as that name, was Slosky's.
The place was well over capacity and do you remember the lighting falling and almost hitting Paul Heaton?
October 86 I think

No I saw them about 4 times around that time and really enjoyed them but not kept up. I listened to the album (last year?) but too much other stuff has pushed them out I’m afraid. Worth pursuing?

Think so. Depends if you buy or stream. Probably some stuff on YouTube to see
