Where's Noel Gallagher?

[fj3568]

All those American and British artists supporting Manchester, where's that fecker Noel Gallagher. Liam has been there for his home city and he's supposed to be the loutish one

But it wasn't a concert devoted to Manchester musicians, though, was it? That wasn't the point of it. Ariana Grande shouldn't have been there if so.

If all the Manchester musicians (and let's be fair, most of them live in London and have done since they got their first pay cheque) want to put on a benefit concert then there's absolutely nothing stopping them.

You're not from Manchester are you Livia? The Gallagher brothers are folk heroes really.

No I'm not. They might be 'folk heroes' there but if you don't like their music (or the fact they behave like utter dicks) and you aren't from Manchester then there isn't much to like about them

The most important Manchester musician there was Peter Hook, as he was there supporting his daughter who had been at the concert that was bombed. Not because of his music but just as a dad.

You know how some people provoke a really strong reaction from deep within? They provoke a really negative reaction in me - no idea why. And their music is depressing as fuck!

Where was he? I didn't realise it was compulsory attendance. Wasn't it a benefit concert, with the victims being the main focus, it wasn't an oasis reunion.

I nearly started a thread called "Where are Wills, Kate and Harry?"

How come none of them went up to Manchester after the attack or for the gig?

Peter Hook was there. That to me is more the spirit of Manchester music than Liam will ever be. Plus he stayed in Manchester..(as did the rest of New Order to be fair)

With his daughter of course

I have to be honest it was a great line up. Not really bothered that Noel G wasn't there; there were plenty of musicians from Manchester who weren't there, so why single him out?

I am actually glad to see a line-up without Adele, Ed Sheeran, Ellie Goulding, Jess Glynne, and Emilie Sande. I get sick of seeing them/hearing about them. They are all good and quite talented and have released some decent tunes, but are hugely over-rated imo.

And it's a load of shit that the stars were there 'promoting themselves.' All the artists are hugely successful with MASSIVE fan bases; they don't need the publicity. People saying that (and I have heard it from people in real life AND on message forums,) are just jealous and bitter and probably pissed off that they didn't get to go.

My niece went with 7 mates, and all they have had all day from people at work and college is negative responses about the concert and the stars who did it. They are so pathetic and bitter, and clearly jealous.

And the fact that the papers are full of 'where was Noel' too is just grim. I thought it was about the victims 🤔

I thoroughly enjoyed the concert and as much as I like Oasis, I can't really get upset by the fact that Noel was not in attendance. Though Chris Martin did an excellent job. My question is....what on earth was Robbie wearing??

The concert was all about Manchester though Livia.

Oops, cross post

The Queen went. No need for William/Kate and Harry as well - they do plenty of other work.

I think they did largely do it so that people would think what awesome stars they were.

Tinkly Then why weren't all the acts from Manchester?

Where were The Cheeky Girls?

That's what I want to know.

But Livia the concert was for Manchester. Don't look back in anger has become a bit of an anthem around the atrocities.

And it is okay not to like Oasis or the Gallagher dickheads brothers

William did visit Manchester after the attacks...

Yes the song has been picked up as the lyrics are relevant. Doesn't make the song good or the performers talented. I don't understand why people worship the Gallaghers. That is all

Really?

This is what you choose to get worked up about?

The music wasn't my cup of tea (because I'm not a 14 year old girl, and actually at 14, I was more into the likes of Joy Division), but we had it on and, well they all did an amazing job.

If that was to me, I'm not 'worked up' about it, just a little sad that all people want to know is where Noel was
