Oasis reunion

Went to see Queen there in july 1986. Found the venue disappointing. The concert had to finish in daylight, as the venue didn't have floodlighting back then. So the light show was negated by the daylight. And (being an Irish summer), it pissed down. Plus, it was a nightmare to get away from afterwards. I get the fact that it's an iconic Irish venue, but I was very unimpressed with it. Croke Park would be the better venue these days.
Couldn't argue with that.. saw The Verve and The Rolling Stones there on different years. Underwhelmed on both occasions. It's just TOO big maybe. And at the Stones, we spent most of the gig trying to stay on our feet and not get washed down the hill in a river of p'ss, mud and sh!te.. the stage was miles away and the busses back to Dublin were even more miles away..
Phoenix Park is pretty rubbish too.
Malahide Castle is much better but maybe not big enough for Oasis.
 
The lads must have enjoyed their stay in dublin....noel couldn't stop smiling on the 2nd night. Well received. Loads of blues on their tour crew. Hope they all enjoy the rest of the tour coz they were all cool.

To be fair, she would have been 68 at the time and it’s rare for the Irish to ever go truly mad for our monarchy.
 
Well the wait is nearly over for me. After enviously watching everyone get to see them over here, I am off over the pond to see them in LA next week. I am watching Supergrass in Hollywood on the Friday and Oasis on the Sunday at the Rose Bowl. If I can get a cheap ticket for the Saturday gig I will go to that as well.
I have dug some of my classic tops out in preparation. Just realised that my 92 home top has the football league badges on the sleeves. You had to buy them separately and sew them on yourself. My auntie had to do it for me.
That Tevez top is my favourite ever City shirt.1000062430.jpg
 
Cracking Day out yesterday - down on the bus from Belfast, parked up at a decent pub, few beers, walked up to Croke Park (all very well organised) - great sets by Cast and Ashcroft then the main men who were absolutely superb several beers more then back on the bus and home in bed for about 2 a.m. Beers were €8 pint which all things considered I was happy enough with. Some of the merchandising though I thought was a bit eye watering - £40 for a bucket hat FFS
I bought one of the football shirts from Adidas (blue) In my usual XL but they’re bloody enormous so it’s still in the bag with the tags still on it.. I’ll have to try and find a Large and sell mine on

Yeah, I'm a bit of a tight arse so snagged one off the chinese site I usually get the football shirts from - about £17 inc. delivery - if the quality is anything like what I've got previously from them I'll be well happy
 
Has anyone ever been over charged by Aramark after using the self service bars? Got charged an insane amount for 6 beers , and the figure doesn't even make sense had it not been overcharged
