Am I the only person who would rather stick pins in my eyes than go to an Oasis concert?
Durgey, dull, same same music, enormous egos - no thanks I’d rather stay at home and I’m a 90s teenager!

You're running the gauntlet on a Saturday night, OP.

Shakenandstirredup · 31/08/2024 22:11

Do people not understand people are entitled to an opposite opinion?

Of course & I’ve not said you should like them. There are plenty of things I don’t like but I wouldn’t bother creating a thread about it. You must have another topic you could post a thread about? Or does moaning make you feel better?

For every thread about not liking them there’s a gazillion social media posts about queues for tickets.

Is there? Why are you reading about something you’re so disinterested in?

Shakenandstirredup · 31/08/2024 22:14

This thread appears to have attracted the crowd of MNs who are so too super cool for school.

Is Oasis triggering for some because they maybe didn’t have a fantastic time in the 90s? 😆😆

I am finding the almost blanket coverage of the concerts quite tiresome. I haven’t read any anti posts on here?

I am entitled to not like them as much as you are to like them.

Of course you are. But to start a thread about it? All these threads are to refine about people who sound as if they think they have a far superior music taste to others who do like Oasis

YearsWentByFast · 31/08/2024 22:16

Have you not been on mumsnet recently OP? I presume not as I don't see how you've missed all the threads about hating them if you have been. 😅

When I'm not a fan of someone or I'm not interested in something, I just don't comment.

ArmchairOlympian · 31/08/2024 22:19

I don’t think I have superior choice in music I didn’t say that. I just don’t like Oasis as every track sounds identical to the last.

I do think SOME oasis fans think they are superior.

You are being unreasonable to start a thread carping on about how you absolutely loathe and despise Oasis. Acting like you're sooooo original! Hmm Lots of people have done this over the past few days and it's pathetic.

Literally nobody cares that you hate them, really. Millions of people like them/love them as all this crazy scratting for the tickets has proven ... so you don't like them big deal. Woo hoo. Give yourself a carrot.. 🙄

A gauntlet lined with people who spent hours clicking refresh on ticketmaster today and still didn't get tickets 😩

Shakenandstirredup · 31/08/2024 22:20

JaneJeffer · 31/08/2024 21:58

Just tell the truth, you couldn't get tickets and you're angry and pretending you hate Oasis. It's ok Flowers

😂

I gave 2 spare tickets OP, willing to sell at a few hundred more than what I paid. 💀

YearsWentByFast · 31/08/2024 22:21

*have

JackRabbitSlim · 31/08/2024 22:22

They're alright, as in I wouldn't turn some of their songs off if they came on the radio, but wouldn't choose to listen to them. Glad I'm not bothered about them though given the trouble people have had getting tickets!

Sick of hearing about Oasis and Taylor Bloody swift!

CeeJay81 · 31/08/2024 22:23

I was a 90s teenager and think the news coverage of it, is very ott. They were very popular though, even though I am not a fan myself.

ArmchairOlympian · 31/08/2024 22:23

The Taylor swift hype didn’t bother me. I just think Liam and Noel are really dislikeable.

LynetteScavo · 31/08/2024 22:24

Yes, it's just you OP. The rest of us are going to an Oasis concert, or crying into our kebabs because we spent a day in a queue and still didn't get tickets. Or we just can't afford it so are pretending we think they're shite.

It's just you who doesn't actually want to go and see them in concert.

Awesome, I’m glad I’m an original for once in my sad lonely, non-Oasis filled life

I suppose nature abhors a vacuum, and there seems to be one in the music scene right now. But honestly, it's a depressing reflection of culture to see how much hype these clowns are getting

Sugargliderwombat · 31/08/2024 22:28

Are you a blur fan?

Saltedbutter · 31/08/2024 22:29

Well you obviously have superior tastes to those of us who do like them and I’m just relieved you started this thread so we all now know.

Why don’t you start a thread next about your least favourite brand of washing powder?

Oasis make much better music.
None of their personas appeal much though tbh.

ArmchairOlympian · 31/08/2024 22:30

Bad day @Saltedbutter ??
