Hurt/Heal 2021 - Ultimate Headliners Edition!

[Mellotr0n]

Oasis are a funny one. I recognise they're symbolic of a whole culture, "movement" even, but fuck me their playing is awful. Actually listen to some of those drum fills.

I've seen Oasis maybe a dozen times, I was a teenager in the 90's when they were the biggest band on the planet, and they were a cultural phenomenon - the likes not seen since the Beatles.

Unfortunately by the time I was able to see them live they had graduated to arenas and stadia and were by and large pretty shite live. I saw one gig of theirs where I thought they were genuinely good, and that was a small (by their standards) show at Manchester Apollo in 2001.

One of the great myths about Oasis is that they were this amazing, electrifying live act. They weren't.

I was obsessed with Oasis growing up, they had - and still have some incredible tunes (the only act that I can think of where a collection of B sides is their best album). But they certainly won't go down as a great live act for me. I think Liam performs better as a solo artist than he ever did in Oasis.
