Oasis are reforming. Yack.

[Messen]

So, one of the brothers has a divorce bill to pay. Apparently they have magically ‘got over’ their acrimony and will stage a come back - what an amazing coincidence! I still maintain:

a) they were a derivative, naive, band with absolutely rubbish lyrics.

b) they mercilessly exploited the hard man, brotherly feud shit in pursuit of loadsamoney

c) they should just go away and not inflict any more of their talent on us

d) I am cross with myself for even posting about this because it gives talentless white macho males the oxygen of publicity.

Discuss.

I was at kendal calling earlier this month…..there was 40k people of all ages from 70s to very young kids all word perfect singing along to ‘half the world away’ ….proper feel good moment ……they will fill stadiums the world over if they get back together

Oddly bitter about something that is ultimately out of your control…random!

No matter how much you hate them and their fans, Oasis is beloved by many.

At a recent Liam gig everyone was singing along, grinning and happy, especially the fat 50yo men.

It always surprises me how triggered some people are by other’s happiness. Like, what does it matter if some men (and women) of all sizes (and ages) go and listen to some music?

Reckon the Guardian will be able to get a few think pieces out of it anyway.

As a woman in her 30s I'd rather listen to Oasis than "Taytay"

My thoughts too.
Two grubby has-been desperate for cash reuniting despite hating each other’s guts 🤷🏼‍♀️

Well it was no different for don’t look back in anger or champagne supranova…..everyone was word perfect and loving it 😊

That’s all they need to sell out stadiums worldwide

There is something truly dreadful about giving a grown woman a nicky that sounds like baby talk ...

No cos Taytay is current. Some miserable England hating fake-Manc Champagne Socialist who was last relevant in 1997 isnt the same.

Hahaha! Taytay?! I mean come on, I'd rather see oasis on repeat everyday for the rest of my life than have to watch Taylor Swift once. Her music is diabolical. She's only relevant in the circles who give mediocre pop stars nicknames and made a mint off the back of it. I mean kudos to her for ripping you all off! But then, there we have it, human beings have differing tastes!

Good news. Although at the time I was more in favour of Blur (who have also recently got back together). Though I was more into Pulp and Black Grape.

I'm actually really excited about this, I've seen them before of course & yes it is going to be a nostalgia fest with middle aged men & women in bucket hats but it was just the news I needed to near now that my summer hols are over & I'm back in school

That said I'm pretty sure we won't get tickets for Dublin (if there's a Dublin date even announced) but I'll happily travel to the UK or wherever else they might announce

Me to! 💜they're amazing, hit after hit after hit.

JAMES! Yes! One of the best gigs I went to as a student. Whole place was bouncing. They were great!

The Stone Roses are trending on Twitter. When they did their reunion gig in Warrington a few years ago, people were absolutely desperate for tickets and I did have a brief moment of being able to see their point! Oasis - not so much but I'm not going to judge those who are thrilled to bits.

The Stone Roses had a reputation for being utterly shit live and Ian Brown was panned for being appallingly flat at Glasto one year. (I can confirm this. I heard it from a distance and didn't wish to get any closer).

So the Stone Roses reunion was something of a different beast.

Ian Brown is a massive giant bellend and he definitely did go 'all Morrisey' a few years back.

I saw The Stone Roses at Spike Island. The sound was, indeed, shit.

Like the Beatles Vs Stones. Swift Vs Oasis. Who cares? Both successful artists although Swift is currently the Empress of pop. Oasis just are of their time. Like GnR, they influenced a generation. Rags to riches which some people seem to object to. Other artists have gone on a cash haul eg Phil Collins. The Eagles are even miming for their supper.

The Eagles are miming?! Where did you see this please?

45 year old britpop/indie kidwith no sense thanks very much !!

Has anyone said …. ‘Who/ what is Oasis i’ve never heard of them?!’ yet??

I'm not an Oasis fan (more of an '80s girl myself) but they were very popular back in the day and lots of people bought their music. It remains to be seen if their music will still appeal today and if people will snap up tickets to see them in concert or download their music or whatever. It's not something that will keep me awake at night.

It’ll sell out in about 1.2 seconds regardless

Definitely!
I love Oasis and really hope they get back together.
