Oasis Line Up Massive Manchester Homecoming Gig At Heaton Park

Get ready to Roll With It as I have super exclusive Oasis news about the band's much anticipated homecoming gig.

My spies tell me Liam and Noel Gallagher are in talks to play the massive Heaton Park in Manchester (famous for Radio 1's One Big Sunday event) next summer. The boys are hoping to sell 100,000 tickets for the gig - and frankly I just can't wait.

One of my moles told me: "The band are really excited about the whole project. It will be their biggest gig since Knebworth."

Meanwhile it looks like Liam, pictured yesterday, is already getting into Supersonic shape.

On a walk with wife Nicole Appleton and her All Saints bandmate Melanie Blatt and their tiny dogs, the rocker's legs didn't look half bad in shorts. Just a shame he decided to wear girly tights.

Oasis Nearly Split

Noel tells 6 Music how close they came during hard years for the band
10 October 2008 - Noel Gallagher has been telling 6 Music how Oasis nearly split up during a difficult period at the end of the 90's.

Speaking to Steve Lamacq, the guitarist revealed that the band had nearly thrown the towel in and gone under a different name.

He said: "We had a serious discussion after Bonehead and Guigsy left: 'Should we fold this now and just go under a different name?' We were seriously thinking about it.

"But your manager gets you at a moment of weakness when you're hungover and says:

'You've built this thing up after ten years and you're just going to throw it away and start again?' And we were like, 'No, we're just thinking about it.'"

Despite the temptation, he says the new blood in the band soon helped them get their priorities right:

"When Gem and Andy joined they were like: 'F*ck that, we want to be in 'Oasis'! We don't want to be in 'Sweaty Bogeys' or anything like that…!' And it was like: 'You've got a point!'"

But despite the decision to keep going, Noel says that whole period was a real low point for the band.

He said: "There were years of a real total lack of inspiration; Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants, that whole period. In my defense, Creation was collapsing around our ears, Bonehead and Guigsy were thinking about leaving, although we didn't know it at the time.

"The fact that we were all getting divorced, that we made a record anyway is quite staggering."

According to Noel, the band was in one big comedown from the hedonism and success of their early years, but didn't have the sense to stop and take stock:

"We had kind off come out of that whole thing with the 90s, I was trying to get off drugs and everyone was doing different things and everyone was becoming distant from each other. I think we put records out because we didn't know what to do.

"We really should have gone away after Knebworth and done what U2 did after the Joshua Tree. To be that you've got to be cool. We were all addicted to the attention and the mania and the egos.

"After Knebworth everyone was like: 'What are you going to do?'. Like an idiot you say: 'We're going to come back next year and do five nights!' But what we should have done was gone away and had a long holiday and analyse this.

"But it's all part of the story."

Liam Gallagher's Wonder Wheel

It was a night out on his home turf that really took off for Liam Gallagher.

The Oasis frontman went for a spin on Manchester’s big wheel in Exchange Square on a day off from the band’s UK tour.

And the feat of engineering struck a chord with the gobby singer who said: “What a machine. It’s great for Manchester.”

Generous Liam then handed a homeless man a crisp £50 note before finishing his night off at The Wellington pub in the city centre.

Meanwhile, his brother Noel revealed yesterday he came close to disbanding the group when Bonehead and Guigsy left in 1999.

He considered calling it a day for good during recording sessions for the album Standing On The Shoulders Of Giants

Speaking to Steve Lamacq on BBC 6 Music, Noel said: “We had a serious discussion after Bonehead and Guigsy left.

“‘Should we fold this now...just go under a different name?’”

Noel also revealed he halted plans for a West End show based on the band, adding: “Someone has floated the idea of an Oasis musical called Live Forever – Oasis The Musical.

“Ludicrous!”

Legend Alan McGee Has Quit Music

Alan McGee, the man who discovered Oasis, is retiring from the music industry because he’s “bored”.

The Scot set up legendary label Creation Records and had a hand in introducing The Libertines and Primal Scream to the world.

I’m told: “Alan has been involved in the scene since the early Eighties and has finally had enough.

“He’s winding down his management company at present and will wash his hands of the entire scene by the end of the year.”

With his track record, he truly is a legend.

Oasis Fan Liam Gallagher

Liam Gallagher's favourite band is Oasis.

The 'Live Forever' rocker doesn't listen to many of his contemporaries because he likes his own work so much.

He said: "I don't listen to new music, but I am aware of new music. I love making music, talking about it, playing it, I adore it. I adore Oasis. I'm their biggest fan, I love them."

Despite not being an admirer of current music, Liam praised 'Brianstorm' rockers Arctic Monkeys and also offered advice to the Pigeon Detectives on how to improve their songs.

He said: "I thought the first Arctic Monkeys album was amazing and I wish them all the best. I prefer them to a bunch of idiots in white clothes dancing like women.

"I don't like Pigeon Detectives, his Yorkshire accent does my head in but I'm sure he'll grow out of it. I used to sing very Mancunian but you do grow out of it."

Oasis At The Sheffield Arena Review

Whisper it softly, but there mumblings not so long ago that Oasis were, well . . . just a teensy bit past it.

Ages since their last new material - bar a rather obvious greatest hits collection - seemingly settled into early middle-aged domestic routine and challenged by a new generation of talented wannabes, it seemed to some that the House of Gallagher was moving steadily over the hill.

Heck, some even dared suggest the band were not the live force they once were and might struggle to fill the nation's arenas.

Well, what did they know. The current tour completely sold out in less than an hour and new album Dig Out Your Soul this week became the fastest seller of the year, with 100,000 copies shifted on the first day.

The band's return to Sheffield Arena last night - the venue where they played their first mega-gig, back in spring 1995 - had the feel of some sort of homecoming.
With no Manchester appearances on the current schedule - they must be saving something up - plenty of punters had passed over the Pennines to be here and the pre-gig atmosphere was more football derby than rock show.

After all, it isn't often that the hardcore have the chance to worship at the altar of the boys from Burnage.

Of course there's interest in the new stuff - Liam's I'm Outta Time sounds like a real favourite already, The Shock Of The Lightning packs a kick, and there are a few quirky choices to please the faithful (like The Masterplan, a long standing Noel favourite).

But we all know the stuff we really want to hear.
The eternal opening rush of Rock And Roll Star, Cigarettes And Alcohol, Morning Glory, Supersonic, Champagne Supernova and a chance to sing ourselves hoarse on Wonderwall and Don't Look Back In Anger - these are the songs that made the Oasis legend.

And if you really think this is the sound of a band past their prime, 12,000 fans in the Don Valley might just want to take you outside and have a quiet word.
Mike Russell.

Oasis' Dig Out Your Soul Expected To Enter US Chart At #5

Next Week's US Album Chart Projections:

Four debuts, and maybe five, are headed for next week’s leader board, led by Rise Against (Geffen/Interscope) with a projected 70-75k cd sales. That total appears to be enough for a #2 finish behind reigning champ TI (Grand Hustle/Atlantic), who has enough momentum to wind up with another 175-200k in week two. Then we’ve got #3 Jennifer Hudson (Arista/RMG) with 65-70k, #4 Metallica (Warner Bros.) with 60-65k, Oasis’ first for (Warner Bros.) bowing at #5 with 55-60k and #6 Ne-Yo (Def Jam/IDJ) with 50-55k.

Why America Needs Oasis

Coldplay may be bigger, but Chris Martin can't touch the Gallaghers when it comes to being a rock star, says SPIN's David Marchese.

Following their mega-successful debut double shot of 1994’s Definitely Maybe and 1995’s (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, Oasis were poised to rule the rock game. But 1997’s underwhelming Be Here Now put an end to that.

Ever since, the band has been stuck in rock'n'roll Triple-A. Not quite major leaguers on par with Coldplay, the Chili Peppers, or Radiohead, but able to fill arenas nonetheless. And even though the new Dig Out Your Soul is a welcome return to the supersonic guitars and straightforward songwriting of those early albums, Oasis’s cultural moment has passed. The brothers Gallagher won’t be getting called back to the bigs anytime soon.

But for sheer entertainment value, they deserve better. It doesn’t matter that Noel has no longer got a multiplatinum platform, he still talks like everyone’s listening, whether that means beefing with Jay-Z or ragging on Radiohead.

I love it.

And Liam is no quote slouch either. Take, for example, the following Wildean zinger, leveled at the fool who tackled Noel in Toronto: “If it were up to me, I’d have cut his dick off and made him eat it.” Not exactly something Chris Martin would say. Come to think of it, what is something Chris Martin would say? Only Gwyneth knows for sure.

And that’s why we need Oasis. Slagging people in the press, public intra-band squabbling, releasing albums of tunefully kickass guitar rock, speaking in a British accent -- this is what rock stars are supposed to do! Now, it just so happens that rock stars are a little like dinosaurs these days, but guess what? Dinosaurs are awesome.

Oasis In NYC

While the band were in New York City they met up with some local street performers. The idea was to have the street performers busk tracks from the then-unreleased album 'Dig Out Your Soul'. While there, they gave an exclusive interview which can be seen here.

Oasis Tribute To ‘Uncle George’

Oasis stars Noel and Liam Gallagher were grieving for a close relative when they made their UK live comeback by playing in Liverpool.

The rockers performed their second gig at the city’s ECHO arena on Wednesday night, just hours after attending their uncle’s funeral.

The Mancunian brothers paid tribute by dedicating their 1990s hit Morning Glory, from the band’s second album of the same name.

Dressed in a red leather jacket and skinny jeans, frontman Liam told the packed audience: “This is for Uncle George”, before launching into the song.

It has been a difficult time for the rock icons, who kicked off their 18-date Dig Out Your Soul tour in Liverpool on Tuesday.

The original date, at Cornwall’s Eden Project, was cancelled after singer-songwriter Noel was knocked over by a crazed fan while playing in Toronto last month.

Noel’s three fractured ribs left him virtually immobile throughout the 1hr 40min sets on Tuesday and Wednesday.

The Gallagher brothers refused to cancel their rescheduled concert and the band, which also includes Wirral-born drummer Chris Sharrock, did not disappoint fans.

Concert-goers include Liverpool bands The Zutons and Shack, La’s and Cast singer John Power and Andrew Loog Oldham, the manager and producer of the Rolling Stones.

Boxer Ricky Hatton announced them on stage on Tuesday, when they were joined by new support act The Sixteen Tonnes.

Liverpool singer and guitarist Danny Roberts, from The Sixteen Tonnes, said: “It was mad, because we had never played to more than a few people before Noel asked us if we wanted to support them. It was amazing.

“Noel hadn’t seen us play before but he said he enjoyed it. Liam buzzed off it and Chris kept coming over to us after the show saying he thought we were great.”

An intimate after-party for friends and family was held at the arena.

A spokesman for the band said: “We can confirm both Liam and Noel attended the funeral of their uncle on Wednesday and dedicated a song to him on stage.”

Oasis' Liam Gallagher: 'I'll Go Insane If I Get Another Beatles Book For Christmas

Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has said he will go “insane” if someone buys him another Beatles book for Christmas.

Gallagher made the remarked during an appearance Radio 1 when he was asked by DJ Zane Lowe if he had started to enjoy the quieter things in life.

“Oh, I can go man. I can still 'av it man. It's not pipe and slippers just yet,” Gallagher said.

“I'm sure there is a pair around the house, but I walk around the house naked and barefoot, man. That's me, mate. Slippers for Christmas. If I get one more Beatles book I'll go insane.”

The singer's admiration of the Beatles, and particularly John Lennon, is well documented.

Gallagher also admitted that he had relaxed since the band's early days when reports about Oasis' notorious rock'n'roll lifestyle filled the newspapers.

“Getting older chills you out, without a doubt, and you look around and you think, 'I'm glad to be here'. We're lucky to be doing this,” he said.

Next Oasis Album Is Already Written

More "sickeningly good" songs on the way, says Noel

Noel Gallagher has already written and demoed Oasis's follow up to Dig Out Your Soul. And, of course, it's "sickeningly good".

In an interview with London radio station XFM, Gallagher claims the band's next album has been written on a miniature kids drumkit in a cupboard-sized studio.

Talking about Dig Out Your Soul track Get Off Your High Horse Lady, he said: "There are another two songs that are really, really brilliant. One called I Want To Live In A Dream In My Record Machine which is a big Champagne Supernova, Stairway To Heaven-thing, which is amazing. And another one called Come On It's Alright which has a 50-piece choir signing the chorus on it."

I Want To Live In A Dream In My Record Machine found its way onto YouTube a few months back and many fans expected the song to be on Dig Out Your Soul.

"I wrote and demoed a full album while we were in the studio," Gallagher continued. "While we were mixing the album in the studio we had another studio that consisted of a cupboard and this little GarageBand thing in the corner. We bought a miniature kids' drum kit and wrote another record."

Gallagher added, typically, modestly, that the new songs he's written are sounding "sickeningly good".

"The new stuff is a proper concept. Have you heard Neil Young's Greendale? I say it with a smile on my face because as I'm saying it, I'm thinking: 'you pretentious c*nt'. It's all songs about characters and all the songs will have titles and in brackets it'll be 'AKA The Shopkeeper'.

"I've got to say, they're sickeningly good. Dave Sardy (producer) was freaking out saying: We should record these now."

Stop The Clocks - not to be confused with the compilation album of the same name - is another Oasis song that has never been released.

Despite the leaks of tracks from Dig Out Your Soul, the album sold 89,434 copies on its first day on sale in the UK (6 October), making it one of 2008's fastest first-day sellers. It's almost certain to be Number 1 in the UK chart on 12 October, the band's seventh Number 1 studio album in a row.
