Oasis

[AlargeClaret]

I just had to log in here for the haters comments , never quite got the sheer wild eyed envy and bitterness of the “ they’re a Beatles tribute band /can’t play /can’t sing /only had a few decent songs/ not proper music “ lot .

FWIW their music has stood the test of time for 30+ yrs and the resurrection of Liam’s voice over the last few yrs is incredible ( sans autotune) . Personally I can’t feckin wait to see them together again . If you know you know .

[bart_claret]

I'm not particularly fussed but it's good news for any fans who didn't get a chance to see them live before they split. Most of the tickets will be scooped up by bots and resold at ridiculous prices. Either that or Ticketmaster's "dynamic" pricing rip-off where you will be looking at £300+.

[ŽižkovClaret]

Ill be trying for edinburgh. Already had my digs booked for the fringe thankfully

[claretskeith]

Trance has been going since the early 90’s. Robert miles didn’t start it

I of course didn't mean literal. What he did was he took it a new level.

[quoonbeatz]

Can't believe oasis and Ian van Dahl are mentioned in the same thread

Wait til you hear IvD is their support act.

What Heaton Park like as a venuue, going to try to get tickets. Would a stadium be better than an open air venue??

It's a crap acoustically, viewing wise, and a nightmare to get to and back into town after. Other than that it's great.

Here is a guide to get your money back after they fall out on the way to the first gig

Good luck to all who try on Saturday. I’m at the mercy of my data as in Tenerife so have a few of us trying to get a pair on any of the Heaton Park days. Going to be rough.

My only hope is that they’re almost certainly going to add dates when you look at the gaps between. Probably at both Heaton and Wembley.

[Stalbansclaret]

Anyone know if it’s possible to put a bet on the song they’ll open with ? I’ve always thought that when the (inevitable) reunion occurred they would open with Acquiesce …a real belter and lyrically perfect with its “Because we need each other, we believe in one another” chorus

[GetIntoEm]

Heaton park is dreadful. Cricket ground would have been better.

Think might try for Edinburgh

Went to watch Stone Roses there not a great venue.

Great song and would make sense with context. I’d like Live Forever just because it’s arguably my favourite and has a bit of that same lyrical meaning, or Cigarettes and Alcohol just to go mental.

[Swizzlestick]

Liam always starts with Rock & Roll Star, doesn't he? So most likely that.

[jedi_master]

They opened with Swamp Song at Knebworth I think.

[claret2018]

They will start with Rock and Roll Star, that’s almost guaranteed. Then they’ll play the same old songs they always played live.

[Sproggy]

There's scope for them to add more dates. Those gaps are a bit of a giveaway.

I'll risk holding fire on the first batch until I see the price and see who is playing. If the HFB rumour is true it's just Liam joining Noel's band for a bit.

I reckon there'll be loads available on secondary sites nearer the time too.

Id recommend getting your digs booked now on free cancelation. its fringe season as it is

[IrkthePurists]

Could someone get a ticket for the missus for me?

She’d like to go and I’d rather stick knitting needles in my eyes.

I will do once I've finished going to B&Q to tell them I don't like lawnmowers.

"Because I have a £20 million divorce settlement" would be lyrically perfect.

She fit?

Cheers for the delete it's nice to know free speech is alive and well on here.

[claretskeith]

She's electric.

Don't look back in anger.

if nothing else it gives the bbc someone else to promote other than taylor bloody swift.

[Conroy92]

Are you having a laugh?

I think your comment was proved a little silly today.

[dougcollins]

Forever way more likely.

Saw Oasis in the greatly missed Duchess of York in Leeds, in the very early 90's. Probably less than 100 in, they opened with 'Rock and Roll Star' and I thought 'You know, this lot aren't bad'.

[CoolClaret]

Oasis certainly captured a moment in time brilliantly and made some good anthems. I think as with everything the hyperbole gets a little bit too much and find some aspects of their hardcore fans a little bit off-putting; it is possible to like and appreciate them without going over the top.

There's so much good music in the world, I find it a little sad when people, who purportedly love music, close their horizons off a bit.

[ClaretMeg]

Anyone know roughly how much Tix will b🫣x

Hard to know, im hoping around 150 for Seated at Edinburgh

[whiffa]

Thought I'd help fellow Clarets out by posting the link for the "pre-sale balot" for tickets, good luck.

[TheOriginalLongsider]

Cardiff is a good venue as it is in the city centre, surrounded by pubs and restaurants, and next to the train and bus stations. I would just avoid the lower level seating as the sound is a bit crap there.

[expoultryboy]

Worst bit about Cardiff is the traffic afterwards.

One of my favourite pubs when a student in Leeds in the '80s. I assume it's no longer with us ?

£148 a ticket! What a joke

[Bordeauxclaret]

Makes the decision a lot easier.

[Clovius Boofus]

£148 a ticket! What a joke

Some Might Say that's milking it a bit.

[claretonthecoast1882]

£148 a ticket! What a joke

Think I paid about £20 when I seen them at Maine Rd, maybe football isn't that dear after all

[burnmark]

I’d have gone to £100 at a push but I’m not paying that to stand in a field at Heaton Park.

[Quickenthetempo]

Bonkers them ticket prices.

The young uns will pay it though.

[GetIntoEm]

4 for heaton park and 4 for Edinburgh for me

Gone many years ago now. I used to get the monthly flier when I was at Uni in Leeds and plan my gigs. Remember passing on going to see Nirvana but did see Radiohead (supporting Sultans of Ping FC) the day they released Creep for the first time. There were maybe 50 there. Loved my nights in there
