Oasis

Me too. Suede is one of my favourite bands of all time. As is Pulp. Blur, less so, but they are ok. All the Oasis hype has given me a series of earworms though. Tonight's is Cigarettes and Alcohol.

This (and similar) is coming up on all my social media feeds 😁

I liked some of what Oasis did, but have no desire to see them live. I much preferred (and still do) Pulp, Blur and Suede.

I can imagine that . They are very 'blokey'.

My son finally got through to get a ticket, but the prices had gone up to something ridiculous and he didn't bother. He saw them years ago as a student in Manchester, and said he enjoyed it, but not enough to pay hundreds of pounds to repeat the experience.

I never liked them the first time round and honestly could not name one of their songs. But them Im not a pop music aficionado.

Andy Burnham was on Sky news in raptures about them. He was like a kid with a bag of sweets.

Oh, I thought the ballot started on Saturday. Oh well, I'm sure my son knows what he's doing.

Update: I've got through on the ballot!

Note to self: Don't get too excited, you know you won't get one

Well done 👏!! My daughter has as well, I'm still waiting on the confirmation email, 😕

Well, I didn't get anywhere with the ballot!

I hope you and your daughter had better luck.

I quite liked them back in the day. I played them when I was pregnant with my son, who grew up to be a fan. I won't be getting tickets, but he and DIL hope to.

It’s all a money grabbing exercise

A pair of uncouth yobbos, particularly Liam, who had all the talent of a crisp packet. I much preferred Blur, whose music was far more entertaining and whose lead singer didn't think he was the hardest man on earth.

I listened to their music back in the day.

All this hoo hah has inspired me to listen to some of it again at some point, but there is no way I would be interested in going to see them live.

Just watched The Hale & Pace video. Brilliant, had me laughing out loud 😂

love the Hale and Pace rip off

NotAGran55 My son was playing at Reading festival on Sunday and stayed on to hear Liam’s set.. he enjoyed the music but said that Liam was ‘up himself ‘ to say the least. Hugely self important about the historic announcement that the Reading crowd were privileged to be hearing!

That doesn't surprise me. I noticed a couple of his interviews on You Tube while I was on there and his whole demeanour creeps me out. There's something really unpleasant about him, I don't think it's just an image he's cultivated.

I'm stil, laughing Chestnut, that cheered me up no end 😂
Thank you

Glad you all enjoyed Oasis by Hale & Pace. They also did a Cliff Richard Summer Holiday one which was hilarious. Spot on! In fact they were incredibly talented and funny for the first few series, so many brilliant sketches.

Well said, tickingbird!

Good luck 🤞 to anyone trying to buy tickets. I love the excitement of buying sought after gig tickets.

I’ve never seen Oasis although I did hear the Reading Festival 2000 gig loud and clear in my garden, long before they sorted out the sound system there.
It was brilliant, and I had wished I had been there, but my son was 3 then and my gigging stopped for a while.

I think they cultivated that image, and milked it, as most artists do.

That may be but it's hardly the role model I want to see from people to whom the young adore!

Rock stars throughout the decades have hardly been what most people would call 'role models'!

Yes, and I think they have a lot to answer for. 😁

So funny not to say stuffy.

Just like the uproar when Elvis appeared on the scene. The Beatles with McCartney’s drug busts; The Stones etc.

Why should musicians, rock bands etc have to be role models?

As someone upthread stated it’s snobbery.

They’re going to rake in millions from these shows and if that upsets the stuffed shirts and pearl clutchers that’s a plus for me 😎

It's really tickled me.
They've got it so right.

😂😂😂

Love it

That sums them up - uncouth!

Hale and Pace did their version of Oasis. 😂😂😂

Spot on, too.

I loved Hale and Pace.

Oasis -what a misnomer!!! They should be called ‘Desert Storm ‘
