I saw a Manchester v Cancer gig at The MEN in about 2005 or so that had a few acts on including Ian Brown, Echo and the Bunnymen and some others. Noel Gallagher did an hour of acoustic Oasis songs which was pretty special. He did stuff that Oasis never bothered with, Dont' Go Away etc.

Weller came on and they did Butterfly Collecter

Buzzcocks at Apollo 89 , after they’d been away for a while.

Was there that night too

Bowie at Maine Road Glass Spider Tour,both nights

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.
