Oasis Score Grandy Prize

No comments


Bartle Bogle Hegarty won top honors at the 2009 International Andy Awards tonight, receiving the Grandy, which comes with a $50,000 cash prize, for the integrated campaign "Dig out your soul in the streets" for Oasis.

Promoting the band's seventh studio album, Dig Out Your Soul, from Warner Bros., the campaign introduced the new music on the streets of New York City, where band members taught street musicians to play their songs for two weeks leading up to the release last fall. In addition to the guerilla effort, the launch included a digital push that distributed a documentary about the New York event through MySpace.

"It's become very clear that new thinking in new media has replaced traditional 'advertising' executions," said Mark Waites, creative director, founding partner of Mother in London and chairman of this year's jury. "Clients and their agencies are becoming adept at embracing unusual approaches, concepts and [media] to transport their creative vision into work that makes viewers take notice and respond."

Droga5, New York, was the only multiple U.S. gold winner, taking home two gold statues for the Sara Silverman-starring viral video for the Jewish Council for Education and Research called "The Great Schlep." The other U.S. gold winners were Goodby, Silverstein & Partners, San Francisco, for the Comcast spot "Rabbit," Crispin Porter + Boguksy, Miami, for the Burger King "Whopper sacrifice" digital campaign and Wieden + Kennedy, Portland, Ore., for the Coca-Cola commercial "It's Mine."

Droga5 also took home two additional prizes, the Richard T. O' Reilly Award, which honors public service announcements, and the Innovation Award, which celebrates forward-thinking work, both for the "Million Project." Created for the New York Department of Education, the campaign inspired students by engaging their interest in cell phone technology and interactivity. It included collateral, a Web site and PR.

The Miami Ad School Europe won the Glenn C. Smith Scholarship in the student competition.

The awards were held at Terminal 5 here tonight.

Made Fer It

No comments












Liam Gallagher has done more for the cagoule than anyone else during his 15-year stint scowling at crowds from stages across the globe.

So I’m not entirely surprised to learn that the bellowing Burnage boy is going into the rag trade.

The dapper Oasis frontman is launching his very own clothing range and has called it Pretty Green in tribute to his favourite track by Mod rockers The Jam.

And in his typically outspoken style, lippy Liam is magnificently blunt about why he has decided to branch out.

He said: “The reason I’m doing it is I like clothes. We’re going to do clothes I like. If people like it, cool. If they don’t, they don’t.”

The limited menswear range will feature everything a Jack the lad could want.

It will include classic designs across footwear, denim, knitwear, jackets, trench coats, parkas, T-shirts, hats, scarves and accessories.

Blunders

And the frontman is taking a hands-on approach to his new range.

He added: “If you’re going to do it, you’ve got to get involved. I’m looking forward to it. I think it’s going to be good.”

The collection is due to hit select shops in June.

Liam and Noel inspired an army of teenage lads over the last 14 years to have the same barnet, sideburns and clobber.

But not all of Liam’s threads have caught on.

The John MotsonO-style sheepskin coat he wore to the Brits in ’96 was a sweaty reminder of the band’s over-indulgence at the time.

And the leopardskin slip-on shoes he’s showing off at the moment went down a treat with my gran.

I doubt you’ll see many lads at The City Of Manchester Stadium wearing them this season though.

Tickets Still On Sale For Concerts For 'The Teenage Cancer Trust' At The Royal Albert Hall

Noel Gallagher Performance
Noel Gallagher Performance


Click in the link above to watch a short video featuring Noel Gallagher for the Teenage Cancer Trust.

Noel Gallagher has released an exclusive collection of recordings from his standout performance for Teenage Cancer Trust at the Royal Albert Hall on 27 March 2007.

Titled ‘THE DREAMS WE HAVE AS CHILDREN’ (Live for Teenage Cancer Trust), the exclusive collection of tracks, released in conjunction with The Sunday Times, The Times Newspaper and iTunes, will feature classic and rare songs from the Oasis canon along with several cover versions of some of Noel’s favourite artists. Songs by The Beatles and The Smiths are featured here along with a very special duet with Paul Weller performing The Jam’s ‘Butterfly Collector’.

Oasis are long time supporters of Teenage Cancer Trust and are proud to continue their support. As well as Noel’s appearance with special guests in 2007, the band headlined the event in 2002.

In addition Noel has made several guest appearances himself over the past decade. Noel commented, “The Teenage Cancer Trust is something I’ve been involved in for a decade now. I have to say it’s been a pleasure, as well as being part of some great nights with The Who, Weller and of course, Oasis. It also gave me the chance to play The Albert Hall on my own two years ago which was one of the best nights I’ve ever had on a UK stage. The people who run it are amazing and the kids are an inspiration. Long may it run.”

Roger Daltrey CBE, Patron of Teenage Cancer Trust said: “Oasis have been incredible supporters of Teenage Cancer Trust over the years and the driving force behind that has been Noel Gallagher - he has been there from day one. This fantastic collection of tracks is testament to Noel’s passion and commitment. For the last nine years we have organised these concerts to raise as much money as possible to help young people fight cancer. It’s thanks to the support and talent of people like Noel that help make this possible”.

Tickets are still available for a number of shows this week including Kasabian & the Stereophonics.

Oasis Floored Hatton

No comments


Ricky Hatton has revealed how the Gallagher brothers turned into the Chuckle Brothers when they climbed into a ring for the first time.

The Hitman lifted the lid on the Burnage rockers' antics when they carried his IBO and Ring magazine world title belts ahead of his showdown with Paulie Malignaggi last November.

Hatton has forged a friendship with the Oasis stars, and invited them to join him on the ring walk, holding the championship belts above their heads.

But part-time comedian Hatton, who becomes deadly serious on fight night, was almost reduced to a giggle as the pair warmed to their tasks.

Hatton also told an audience at the Lowry Theatre that the bad boys showed a gentler side on seeing the brutality of boxing close up - even prompting Liam to plead with him to quit.

But the fun started as Hatton and his entourage lined up in the tunnel, ready to make their entrance into the MGM Grand's Garden Arena.

"I handed Liam one of the belts, and he asked me what he should do with it, so I told him to hold it above his head," said Hatton. "When we got in the ring I could hear Liam telling Noel `Look at the floor, there's blood on the floor!'

"Noel said to him `Yes, you're in a boxing ring!"

Hatton also told Liam to show the belt to Malignaggi, meaning from the safety of his own corner. But the Mancunian swaggered across the ring, almost thrusting the belt in the opponent's face, and shouted "Whatcha think about that!"

"I wouldn't mind," quipped Hatton. "But Paulie is a New York Italian, and half of the Sopranos were at ringside."

Ferocity

The Gallaghers took ringside seats for the fight, and were astounded at the ferocity of the contest, even though Hatton's 11-round stoppage win was not one of his hardest fights.

"Liam pulled me over after the fight and asked me how many more I was planning to have," said Hatton. "I told him three or four, and he replied `You must be off your head'. He was pleading with me to pack it in."

Hatton also revealed his biggest hate figure - United star Cristiano Ronaldo.

Asked who he would choose if he could knock out anyone in the world, Hatton only hesitated for a moment before answering: "I don't dislike too many people, but it would probably be Ronaldo.

"He is the best footballer in the world, but he is on his backside more times than his feet.

"United were on the telly the other night when I was Hoovering, and when the Hoover bumped into the telly Ronaldo fell over."

Hatton was also asked who he would like to play him if a film was made of his life story. He replied: "They would have to have two people playing me. Johnny Vegas when I'm out of training, Brad Pitt when I'm in it."

Hatton, meanwhile, believes his little brother Matthew is ready to grab some of the limelight.

The 27-year-old headlines the first local show put on by Ricky's own promotions company on March 28, taking on former European champion Ted Bami in an IBO title eliminator in Altrincham.

And his elder sibling is predicting the time is ripe for "Magic" Matthew to blossom into a top-class fighter.

Having split with long-time trainer Billy Graham following defeat by Failsworth's Craig Watson, a superb victory over Ben Tackie in November made a few people sit up and take notice.

And with a new training regime under Lee Beard, and occasionally Ricky's new mentor Floyd Mayweather Senior, Ricky says his kid brother is about to shine.

"His career has stuttered and stalled, but now you are going to see the best of him," said Ricky.

"He is coming into his own. In his fight with Watson he didn't do himself justice.

"In his last few fights under Billy his heart wasn't really in it. Training was becoming very much hard work for Billy due to his injuries, and it was taking all his effort to get his work done with me.

"Consequently Matthew was suffering a little bit and it showed in his performances.

"He is in a new camp now, working on different things. It's the same as it is with me - when you are given new training methods and new and exciting things to work on you get a bit of hunger and buzz back."

Noel Gallagher Remains True To Form

No comments







After Chinese authorities revoked their performance license for Liam Gallagher of Oasis's performance at a Free Tibet benefit concert over 10 years ago in the United States, you would think the Brit-rockers would put forth at least some effort to do some diligent PR for their upcoming show in Korea.
Oasis' forthcoming April 1 concert at the Olympic Gymnasium in southern Seoul will be their second concert in Korea since 2006 when they performed to a sold-out crowd at the Olympic Hall.

"Hmm? The fans were crazy," Noel said of his band's show three years ago in the nation's capital. In an e-mail interview with The Korea Herald, the critically acclaimed band and the crotchety half of the Gallagher brothers, tip-toed around standard inquiries with classic curmudgeon-like approach.

Having enjoyed a career which has spanned 17 years, critics and fans alike have showered their latest and 7th studio release "Dig Your Soul," with universal praise.

So what does get them going?

"Everyone and everything," Noel said.

"Smoking and drinking and watching TV during my spare time gives me inspiration."

Never ones to kowtow to the media, Liam and Noel have often been publicly visible through their diva-like tantrums and feuds. Whether their apathetic views have been theatrics or not, Oasis is one of the few remaining bands that still represent the archetypal rock 'n' roll image.

"Asian media seems to be more polite and philosophical. U.K. media is very cynical," he said.

"They're not interested in music. They're only interested in gossip."

Oasis has been described as everything from arrogant Beatles-wannabes to innovators of Britpop and rock. And when it was revealed the band would deviate from their trademark sound to a harder, grittier sound, there were concerns whether this would alienate the band's core group of fans who had been there since the beginning.

Ironically, the reception from the U.K. media has been especially positive since the album's release late last year. When the Manchester-based band's first single, "The Shock of the Lightning," was given its initial round of rotation on-air, music journalists hailed the band as returning to form. England's most respected and representative music magazine "Q," even dedicated 50 pages of their publication to the band and the album.

For information on tickets, contact Yellow 9 Entertainment (02) 3444-9969 or Interpark (02) 1544-1555.

Noel Gallagher's America Dream

No comments














Noel Gallagher wants to move to America - but can't because of his kids.

The Oasis guitarist has grown to love the US as he has gotten older but can't make it his permanent home because he doesn't want his children - 18-month-old son Donovan, whose mother is Noel's long-term partner Sara MacDonald, and eight-year-old daughter Anais, with his ex-wife Meg Mathews - to have American accents.

Noel, 41, said: "I've grown to like America. It's a place for adults. Once you get past 40 you start to appreciate it. I would love to live in Los Angeles, I'll get a house between Madonna and Robbie Williams.

"But I don't think I could go because of the kids. I can't have a son with an American accent. I can't have them calling me pop."

Noel is seemingly following in his brother and bandmate Liam's footsteps.

The Oasis frontman previously admitted he wants to move to New York with his wife Nicole Appleton, just like his late idol John Lennon.

Liam said: "I love that city, I buzz off it. Nic' was born in Canada, but then she lived there for five years. That's the next step for me. I want to go to a place where I can just be me."

John Lennon moved to the US city in 1971 and was tragically shot dead outside the Dakota apartment building where he lived by deranged fan Mark David Chapman in 1980.

'I Prefer The School Run To Getting Wrecked Every Night,' Liam Gallagher Confesses

No comments


















Liam Gallagher and his brother Noel have always been two of my favourite celebrities. Absurdly talented, outrageously outspoken and often shockingly badly behaved, they shoot from the verbal and physical hip, don't care what people think of them and make fantastic records.

Although I've met Noel a few times - including one memorable occasion at Tony Blair's 'Cool Britannia' party at Number 10 in 1997, when I caught him about to pen a Hitler moustache on Margaret Thatcher's portrait - I've never properly met Liam. Until tonight, that is. And let's just say, he didn't disappoint.

An old friend of mine, Stephen Purdew - who owns various top health clubs, including Champneys - had his wedding at Claridge's hotel, and as I sipped champagne at the reception, I was led over to meet Liam.

'Hey, man - 'ow are you?' he said. 'Like that chat show of yours; it's sound.'

'Thanks - I'd love to have you on as a guest.'

'No, no, I don't do f****** interviews. I leave it to our kid to sound off. He likes doing that.'

We then spent 20 minutes having the most hilarious conversation I've had with anyone for a long time. Liam speaks like a machine gun, firing out brilliantly provocative one-liners.

'How's your brother?' He grimaced.

'Have you got brothers?' he asked.

'Yes.'

'Well, he's like that.'

'Often quite annoying, then?'

'Right.'

'I didn't expect to see you at a party like this.'

'Nor did I. I don't go out a lot, to be honest, but I like Stephen, and I've just finished a tour two days ago, and when that happens I always feel a big comedown when I get home. I miss the buzz of being on stage and just mope around the house if I'm at home. So it's nice to come out.'

'You seem a lot calmer these days.'

'I am, I am. I prefer going on the school run, or to my local supermarket, to getting wrecked every night. I've grown up.'

'Hang on - you go to your local supermarket?' 'Yeah, man - Waitrose, all the time. It's sound. I like the fish counter - it's a real laugh round there.'

At which point I spotted his shoes: a pair of leopard-skin loafers.

'Interesting footwear, Liam...'

'I f****** love these, man. LOVE them. I've got two pairs, and wear them all the time.'

'We used to rely on you when I was a newspaper editor. On a quiet day, we'd hope you'd turn up at some awards show and start hitting and abusing everyone.'

'Yeah, well, that's because I never won anything, and I'd be on loads of drugs. Now they give me all the f****** awards, and I don't take drugs, so I don't get so wound up!'
'So you'll be on best behaviour tonight, then?' Liam smiled, and leant towards me. 'Listen, man, I could still drink anyone in this room under the f****** table. Don't worry about that. Any one of 'em.'
