Metallica's Lars Ulrich On Coming Across Oasis 20 Years Ago

Oasis: the band that changed our lives – by Lars Ulrich and Felix White The Metallica drummer and Maccabees guitarist remember coming across Oasis 20 years ago – and how it altered their perceptions of music

In 1994 I was browsing through an issue of a magazine called Select, and there was a story about a band from England, with some unusual looking fellows, that I’d never heard of. I skimmed across the article, and was quite amused by the fact that every other word was either “fuck” or “cunt”. There was a pretty detailed description of a conversation between one of the guys in the band, Noel Gallagher, and Paul Weller, that was particularly off-colour and very, very funny. It reeked of attitude and not giving a fuck, which at the time – at the height of the shoegazing-I-can’t-handle-being-a-rockstar attitudes that were becoming mainstream – was very refreshing.

A few weeks later I was driving in my car, listening to radio station Live 105 here in San Francisco, when a song came on unlike any I had ever heard before. The attitude, the aloofness, and the not-giving-a-fuck vibes were pouring out of the speakers, and by the time the first verse/bridge/chorus cycle was done, I was convinced that whatever I was listening to had to be that band that I had read about in Select a few weeks back. And sure enough I was right. It was Oasis and the Supersonic single. Thus began a long and very rewarding relationship with a sound, an approach and a way of looking at the world that has had a huge impact on me and helped shape who I am today … for whatever that’s worth.

XFM Presents: An Evening In Conversation With Noel Gallagher

Noel Gallagher is easily one of the most important songwriters of all time, as famous for his charisma as for his  musicianship. Over the last twenty years Noel Gallagher has helped shape contemporary music and change our notions of celebrity.

Now, for the first time ever, Noel Gallagher will put down his guitar to speak with a panel of music industry insiders at a special one-off XFM charity event. For over 90 minutes, a group of prominent music figures will delve in to Noel's life in music. All this in front of an audience of just 120 people.

The panel will consist of Manic Street Preachers' Nicky Wire, former Creation Records boss Alan McGee, and Shortlist magazine's deputy editor Hamish McBain. The night will be hosted by XFM's John Kennedy.

Noel Gallagher has said: "Having rarely stopped blowing my own trumpet since April '94, it'll come as no surprise I jumped at the chance to let the people catch me at it again, so to speak, while at the same time raising a few bob for the kids. It'll be a pleasure.”

The event will take place at the Hammersmith Club, London on November 3 to raise money for Global’s Make Some Noise. For Noel fans, young musicians, or anyone with an interest in music, this is an unmissable event.

Tickets will cost from £40 - £100 and will go on sale Wednesday at 8am.

Global’s Make Some Noise is a new national charity to improve the lives of disadvantaged children and young people.
