New Row Over Oasis Refunds

Angry Oasis fans say they STILL haven't got their money back after power cuts disrupted the band's homecoming show.

Noel Gallagher promised 70,000 fans a refund live on stage after the Heaton Park gig on June 4 got off to a stuttering start.

Noel later said the thousands who took him up on the offer were being 'cheeky' - but 20,000 cheques have already been sent out with the logo 'Bank of Burnage'.

But fan websites are now being flooded with comments from people complaining that their bid for a refund has been turned down for not meeting strict criteria.

Anyone determined to get a refund has until the end of this month to keep trying, but a post on the band's website warns that 'the Heaton park refund offer was a discretionary offer' and their decision is final.

The post also warns that organisers can't process 'incorrectly completed forms'.

Now a number of fans are furious after being told their claims are 'ineligible' even though they met the initial June 12 deadline and believe they met all the conditions.

One fan accused the band of 'doing a complete u-turn to save themselves some cash'.

Another fan who was refused a refund, Dorothy Peters, told the M.E.N: "It's very poor. Obviously I'm annoyed as I cannot see why they are refusing my claim. I bought the tickets at Heaton Park at a box office."

Why Oasis Are Rock 'N' Roll Heroes

Jon McClure has branded touring pals Oasis “the last real rock ’n’ roll heroes we’ve got left”.

The Reverend And The Makers mainman, famed for rattling off opinions just like the Gallaghers, supported the Manchester icons this summer.

And Jon, 27, reckons Liam, 36, and Noel, 42, are more powerful than even Gordon Brown, 58.

He told me: “I think the celebrity pop bubble is close to bursting now. I get on great with the Gallaghers – they are the last real rock ’n’ roll heroes we’ve got left.

“They are the only people who aren’t afraid to speak their mind, no matter what the consequences. They should be applauded.

“Even the Prime Minister isn’t allowed to to say what he likes, but Oasis can.”

The Makers have been doing guerrilla busking gigs around the country this week to promote second album A French Kiss In The Chaos.

Jon said: “It’s good not telling people where we are going, then just turning up outside some building. It’s about giving something back to people who don’t live in Shoreditch.

“It’s an experience – like your paper the Daily Star, most readers are from the North, not Shoreditch.”

Jon also has several side projects on the go, including Mongrel.

He explained: “I like putting different stuff out under different titles as I get bored.”

Just don’t expect to see him at a Kings Of Leon show.

He said: “Kings Of Leon are hail-ed as gods but their latest album sounds like Bon Jovi.”

Oasis... They’re No Ricky Martin

Oasis have had a few insults hurled their way over the years but Cristiano Ronaldo has delivered the best one yet.

The ex Manchester Utd ace, an unpopular lad in the sky-blue half of the city, reckons the band aren't a patch on Latino pop singer Ricky Martin.

The Real Madrid star has been locked in a rib-tickling exchange with the Manc lads after he revealed his desire to get them to play a private gig.

Noel replied that he always knew the Portuguese winger had great taste but the £80million world record signing would never be able to afford them.

I have nothing but respect for Ronaldo for playing ball by chipping in yet again with a put-down Mr Big would have been proud of.

He said: "If Noel or Liam want to let me know what they charge for a private gig, they can give me a call or let you guys know and you can pass the message on.

"I mean it can't be that expensive can it? They're no Ricky Martin."

Live Forever or Living La Vida Loca? No comparison.

Ronaldo was keen to point out the deep pockets at his new club. He added: "If Oasis think we can't afford them they should come to the Madrid training ground and see some of the cars.

Spenders

"The lads here don't mind spending their money. If I explained to the boys how good Oasis are, I think we could get a whip round going and come up with the fee pretty easily.

"I think Kaka would love them. He has very good taste." Ronaldo originally said he thought Oasis were the best British band of all time, far better than The Beatles.

He said he would love to have the Gallaghers over to the Bernabeu to see his first La Liga mega match, Real Madrid v Barcelona.

Ronaldo added: "As for the Real Madrid v Barca tickets, we can sort them out no problem, but I would have to insist that they closed with Champagne Supernova. For that I will make sure they are in seats on the halfway line.

"You can let them know that I won't be coming to their beloved City as well.

"I love it here in Madrid and there will only ever be one club in Manchester for me."

What, the Living Room on Deansgate?

Liam Gallagher ‘N Lily Allen In 11hr Jet Bender

Liam Gallagher and Lily Allen stunned passengers on an 11-hour flight to Japan with a riotous booze bender, The Sun can reveal.

The Oasis frontman and singer Lily were repeatedly told to "calm down" by crew members as they swore and shouted.

Liam, 37, and Lily were in Upper Class of the Virgin Atlantic flight to Japan, where they starred at the Fuji Rocks festival.

Liam had swaggered on to last Wednesday's flight to Tokyo after swilling champagne in Heathrow's Upper Class lounge.

He and Lily, 24, started their marathon drinking session as the plane took off - and continued for hours after the flight landed.

A flight source told The Sun: "They did not care about the other passengers. They were in a world of their own.

"They were already well-oiled by the time they came on board. There is obviously a different set of rules for celebrities."

Liam and Lily's entourages - who made up about half the 30 passengers in Upper Class - had told cabin crew as they boarded to "keep those two apart".

Dad-of-two Liam - married to former All Saints star Nicole Appleton, 34 - wrote on his Twitter website: "Just landed in Tokyo. That flight flew by."

Lily posted of her experience: "at Lost in Translation hotel in tokyo. Had an extraordinary amount of fun the past few days."

When The Sun approached Lily at her home in Maida Vale, West London, she said: "I don't know what you are talking about."

Oasis Fans Still Waiting For Refunds

Back in June Manchester's heroes Oasis stopped by at Heaton Park to play 3 home coming concerts.

The 70'000 boozy fans in attendance for the first of the three nights saw the plug pulled on their Brit Rock darling's sound system after only one and a half songs.

Apparently a generator which juiced the massive sound system had exploded in a plume of black smoke back stage.

A visibly agitated Liam Gallagher showed up after over half an hour of down time and declared that the show was free now and vowed that fans would get their money back. Although the fault was rectified, and the band went on to perform an impressive set, approx 20'000 fans as it turned out took the bands offer.

A refund form and statement appeared on the official band site of Oasis which promised ticket holders who sent their valid ticket stub back their full ticket price refunded.

This week this official deadline will have come and gone and many fans are flooding fan sites and forums such as StopCryingYourHeartOut and *The Oasis Newsroom (*published by Live4ever) with the question "Where is my refund?"

Although most fans have received their "Bank of Burnage Cheques" (pictured above) it seems as though many have given up on any hope in receiving their cash back. It's a hot topic on the message boards as many supporters don't believe fans in attendance should have asked for their money back in the first place as the show went on and everyone there seemed to enjoy the sights and sounds of Manchester's finest.

We informed Oasis' Ignition management team earlier today about fans having problems getting a refund and they told us "They are looking into it."

Liam Gallagher To Hook Up With Supergroup Freebass

Two years ago, we told you all about Freebass, the new three-bassist supergroup led by combative former New Order/Joy Division member Peter Hook. The group, which also features former Smiths low-end master Andy Rourke and current Primal Scream/former Stone Roses four-string thumper Mani, hasn't exactly been enormously prolific since its formation, partly because all three bassists still have other things going on. But in the past week or so, the Freebass MySpace page has crackled back to life, with Hook posting a new song and a few updates on the band's debut album, which is now apparently being mixed.

The new song is a "rejected demo" for a long instrumental track called "Sugar Daddy", which sounds a lot like a vocal-free New Order. At least one of the bassists on the track plays something that sounds extraordinarily similar to a Bernard Sumner guitar line, which is pretty weird considering the acrimonious relationship that Hook and Sumner have had over the past few years. In any case, it's good to hear that unmistakable Peter Hook burble back at work; it's been a minute.

The MySpace page is also streaming "The Tower", a Freebass song that's now a few years old, which appeared as the theme song for the Channel 4 radio show "The Tube".

In the MySpace page's three blog updates, all posted since July 21, Hook dishes on the mixing process, and offers a tracklist for the forthcoming album. To hear Hook tell it, he'll sing two songs on the album. Charlatans UK singer Tim Burgess will also appear, as will Wah! leader Pete Wylie and notorious British outlaw writer Howard Marks. The rest of the vocals are handled by Gary Briggs, formerly of the band Haven.

Freebass' MySpace bio also notes that they've worked with vocalists like Liam Gallagher, Billy Corgan, Primal Scream's Bobby Gillespie, and the Stone Roses' Ian Brown, but Hooky's tracklist doesn't mention any of those guys.

Hook's MySpace posts include at least one obligatory dig against Bad Lieutenant, the new band that includes pretty much everyone from New Order not named Peter Hook: "JUSTIN RICHARDS is the engineer, who has just been working on the Bad Lieutenant session how weird is that! He has recovered now tho........." Also, Hook claims that Freebass will book some shows in late October "just to beat the competition." Fightin' words!

There are also some studio photos on the page, but those are really only interesting if you want to look at middle-aged dudes looking at computers. Not judging, just saying.
