wozwebs Posted 15 hours ago Report Share Posted 15 hours ago (edited) Full press release mentions other supports to be announced in due course. Guess is a different one for each venue although Liam said it’s Cast on X Edited 15 hours ago by wozwebs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id say anywhere but Cardiff - The Manics are probably a bigger act than Oasis in the Cardiff area. They are a Beatles size act to the Cardiff support.

NorthernSoul52 Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Hence booking Ashcroft. He's not going to outshine anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben7amin_ Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago To be fair Cast have got some absolute tunes. Probably one of the more underated acts from this period. Walkaway, Finetime, Alright, Sandstorm, Flying. these are solid tunes. Worth getting there - early enough to survive an Ashcroft set for.

If you are Oasis you don't want to get outdone by a support The Manics aren't going to outshine Oasis regardless of where they play, but particularly as it's unlikely that the crowd will be entirely Welsh due to the scramble for tickets. In the same way Heaton Park isn't going to be full of Mancs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the Manics would be the better live act by miles. But on that day, the crowd will be (solely) geared up for Oasis and so anyone short of The Beatles, with a reincarnated George and John, wouldn't "outshine" them as such.

NorthernSoul52 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Pretty much, I guess. Ninety percent of that crowd won't care if it sounds like a dog shitting razorblades, it'll still be the moment of their 2025 lives for many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess this depends on how we are defining Outshiiiiiiiiine - I was literally thinking about it has being the better live act. But your way also makes sense - im not sure it had a universal meaning Its pretty moot at this point as they are not the support Edited 1 hour ago by Ben7amin_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEGABOWL Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago The problem the support acts have in Manchester is that Heaton Park is absolutely sh*t and based on previous experience the less time spent in there the better. The Pub is very valid competition especially vs Ashcroft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
