Are a Beatles tribute band.

Nothing wrong with that. Stuff they've done is quite catchy.

But basically, they're just riding on the coat tails of The Beatles.

Every tune or song they sing or write is reminiscent of the Beatles in their heyday. I like Oasis. Being a 60s child, I can see quite clearly that the Gallagher brothers have been heavily influenced by the Beatles.

And there's nothing wrong with that, either. Excepting that youngsters think that that Oasis have their own particular style of music. They don't. They pinched it from The Beatles.

Can we create an oasis board to hide all these threads?

😂 Ok

Werweisswohin · 31/08/2024 23:15

There are several anti-Oasis threads already. Join one of those.

TheClawDecides · 31/08/2024 23:15

Yeah because youngsters have never heard anything by the Beatles, ever.

Saltedbutter · 31/08/2024 23:16

Here we go again. Can you not join one of the other, equally boring, threads about this?

ShinyNewMe · 31/08/2024 23:17

Oasis have always said they’re influenced by the Beatles, so what

Just checking to see how many people agree with me. Is that ok with you?

I'm not anti Oasis. I've said they are good and I like them.

I even got in the queue for tickets. But only 300 quid plus by the time i got in.

They are nothing like the Beatles...apart from the dodgy haircuts.

I like the summer fruits flavour

.....OK, join one of the pro-Oasis threads then......or join an anti-thread and convince folk they're decent....🫣

See. Copycating.

So what's your point? We all know that they are influenced by the Beatles, Oasis even say that they are influenced by the Beatles.

I've got tickets, I'm going to see them, I can't wait 😁

Why can't I make my own? Nobody is forced to respond.

I don't see it myself

They're huge Beatles fans. One of them named his kid Lennon. They abuse their wives as well, so they've got that in common.

If everyone made their own thread on Oasis we'd have hundreds of them. Read existing threads and join in, you don't need your own thread. Go and speak to the poster who'd rather 'stick pins in her eyes' - that'll keep you both occupied until Oasis inevitably split up again next week. 😬

RedToothBrush · 31/08/2024 23:27

OP. Has it really taken you thirty years to realise that Oasis liked and were heavily influenced by the Beatles despite them saying this for thirty years and one of them having an adult son named Lennon.

In other news, the Pope Is Catholic and Bears Shit In Woods.

ShinyNewMe · 31/08/2024 23:27

Yet you were queuing for tickets? Weird

Of course. Isn't everybody?

Nope.
Saw them twice already, no need to see them again.
