Oasis reunion

[BimboBob]

You’re having a mare.

Oasis big in the US? Na. Africa? Na. Far East? Na. Most of Europe? Na.

Glastonbury? Yup. World Wide.

A smart move.

I reckon that I’ve seen them six times from 1996 - 2005. The Maine Road gig was a magical experience for a wide eyed fifteen year old. Easily in my top five gigs of all time. At the Etihad gig in 2005, they looked disinterested and just cantankerous with each other. There is no doubt in my mind that the songs have stood the test of time. I play in a covers band and we regularly get young lads in there early twenties asking for oasis tracks from the first two albums. My ten year old son wants me to take him to the Heaton Park gigs. Hope they get Bonehead, Guigsy and Alan White on board to complete the line up. Good luck to them.

Disinterested or uninterested? Huge difference.

Oasis have sold the best part of 100m albums worldwide less than 20% of those are in the UK.

They will sell nearly 2 million tickets in minutes.

I got a ticket for first day at Knebworth at face value without any problem whatsoever. I could have got two for the second day just as easily but wouldn't have been able to go that day.

2.6 million applications...? That's absolute bollocks

2.6 Million applied for tickets for Oasis's Knebworth shows in 1996.

I’m sure it’ll be incredibly popular.

But 2.6 M applications and 2.6 M different people, are two completely different things.

Glastonbury? Yup. World Wide.

A smart move.

Big in Hong Kong China South America most of Europe Mexico and I’d even say some success in North America

Glastonbury on TV goes to a far wider audience than Oasis manage. World wide.

Yep, BBC I player is like Google

Quick reminder that 'peak' Oasis were blown offstage by Prodigy at Knebworth 28 years ago.

The atmosphere will no doubt be fantastic at the 2025 shows, but I wouldn't expect Oasis' performances to be any better than a standard Rolling Stones 'going through the motions for money' tour.

I wouldn't believe any of that. I was there and it was relatively easy to get a ticket, just like when I saw them at Maine Road and Loch Lomond.

People are exceptionally gullible nowadays.
