Review: Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds In Nottingham

No comments












It's not just the title of Noel Gallagher's latest solo effort - much of which was played to a sold-out crowd at Nottingham's Capital FM Arena on Friday night but an insight into the reasons why I,and thousands of others queued to see the Mancunian music legend.

A throng of adults, now in semi-real jobs with semi-real responsibilities, some still hanging onto Paul Weller haircuts and Parka jackets, just wanted the chance to remember the old days for a night.

Not wanting to do Gallagher's more recent work down some of it is actually very good, more of which later but the essence to his success is still the rousing, raucous and rebellious rock and roll of the early days, coupled with some of the best ballads ever written by a British songwriter.

And that's why we're packed into the arena, enjoying (ish) semi-fizzy lagers when a proper pub or a night in are often preferred these days. We're all chasing yesterday.

And it was with great glee, as a result, that we after all you can't escape a feeling of togetherness in the presence of Oasis' best songs performed masterfully by their creator received an acoustic version of Fade Away, Shout it out Loud, Digsy's Dinner and the imperious Champagne Supernova..

After a long night on the booze back in 2006 I was brought to the cusp of tears by Oasis performing Champagne Supernova and while this time was more a fond remembrance with Noel on his own, it's still a wondrous privilege to be in a room, regardless of the vast scale, while he plays such an iconic part of your personal life live.

Not to leave us punters wanting more, Gallagher steps things up for a magnificent encore.

Pulling a soaring, choir-backed Don't Look Back in Anger out of the bag before the ultimate sing-a-long of The Masterplan left emotions shattered and great memories being relived in one small corner of Nottingham.

It's a no-nonsense performance from Gallagher, as we've come to expect. The music is great, and he knows it why spoil things with too much performance.

"I often say when people tell me they're coming to see me, that there's nothing to look at," he said in a recent interview in the Post. "There's plenty to listen to, but there's nothing to see."

The Manchester City fan's understandable view is that he's been doing what he does for more than 20 years, taking into account his 18 years as guitarist and songwriter with Oasis.

"I occupy a space about the same size as this rug," he says, pointing to the small square of fluffy fabric on the floor of his publicist's office, "and that's it. Anything more is like a workout.

"I should be able to do what I do sitting down, smoking. If I break a sweat during a gig, I need to rethink the whole thing."

But it's not a wholly accurate picture of things and there is a small element of performance to the show – even if it is just Gallagher showing us that he still loves the music as much as us.

He might have only name-checked Nottingham to mention that he was mighty hungover last time he gigged here. But what was I expecting, his support for the Major Oak as European tree of the year?

As much as the classics are the star of the show, Noel gives the new stuff a brilliant showcase too.

Some of his best songs from previous self-titled album Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds are fantastic, particularly What a Life, Everybody's on the Run, Dream On and If I had a Gun.

And early on in the set Gallagher also plays three efforts from the latest album Chasing Yesterday; Heat of the Moment, Lock all the Doors and Riverman. Oasis, they are not, but they're all really great songs.

When Gallagher announces his next tour, I will be there again, ready to listen to his latest work but really just waiting to re-live the past, the best days with friends and family, a youth full of carelessness and packed full of bloody fantastic tunes; forever Chasing Yesterday.

Noel Gallagher's: Tales From The Middle Of Nowhere Vol 3: The Good, The Bad And The Bubbly (Part 1)

No comments












Noel's back with his award winning tales from the road. Here's the first of many... Enjoy!

Tales From The Middle Of Nowhere Vol 3: The Good, The Bad And The Bubbly:

Yes Mods And Rockers.

How long has it been...3...4 years? Too long? Not long enough? I'd say just about right myself.

Time to top up the air miles, clear the throat and get on your dancing feet we are of course back at the coal face...earning a crust, same firm, same venues, different songs (even though 'some of the chords are the same' Ha-ha!! Fuck you shitty Empire!!). That "new" album of mine is well over a year old to me now so it will be interesting to see what people make of it (thanks for buying it by the way...if you have already!). Must say its gone down spectacularly well so far. Starting off in such huge venues was always gonna be a bit of a Titus Bramble, but it's paid off so far. Most people have been commenting after the shows about how spectacular the "show" is which is slightly frustrating (as I never get to see it ) and a blessing at the same time as it keeps the focus off me.

So Belfast... for a first attempt I thought it was fucking good. Bit shaky in places, mostly me I might add, but all things considered a good away win. It goes without saying but of course should not get left unsaid that the crowd were bang up for it. Really special atmosphere in the room, so much so it was quite difficult to concentrate on what I was supposed to be doing and not just stand back and let them take over. I fear in places I may have lost that battle!! I suppose it beats the shit out of indifference though eh? Nice to see a few inevitably familiar faces down the front...from all over the world! Some lad had a banner down the front that read: HEAR COMES GALLAGHER THE BISCUIT! Clearly this lad was high when he'd put pen to cardboard on that!

I have no idea what it meant, I did ask him to try and get to the bottom of it, but I'm afraid his accent got the better of me so I gave up.

The set list as we speak has changed 18 times now since the start of rehearsals. It's not like me to have not nailed it months ago...I've become a fiddler! I fucking HATE fiddlers...unless it's a drunk Irish man in a bar full of Guinness fiddling as if his life depended on it! I think it's because I've got SO MANY GREAT FUCKING SONGS that I'm struggling with what NOT to play. I'm sure I'll get there in the end though...somewhere in Taiwan in 2017 no doubt!?

Packing a suitcase for a 3 week tour with a fucking DISGRACEFUL hangover is not to be recommended...I know this now... The night before the morning I came away me and Iree Nancy went out, and didn't make it in 'til gone 6:00...(fucking excellent night btw!).

I open my suitcase to find I'd packed it like a novice...like 13 pairs of cords (which I have no intention of wearing) 4 pairs of trainers (I don't even wear trainers...especially on stage!), the most ridiculous array of t-shirts that quite frankly a man should never be seen in and...( and this is the fucking killer...) NO LEATHER JACKETS...NOT ONE!!! The first time in 25 years I've been on the road without a leather jacket! Unforgivable shit that...I was in a fury...I sent myself a rather snippy email AND a shouty text...SEE ME IN MY HOT TUB YOU vagina!!!! I sat myself down and we talked it through...like adults admittedly...no raised voices...at first we understandably blamed each other but in the end we both knew that it was I that was in the wrong and could blame no-one else but myself (although Nancy's name did come into it at one point!). You find me now on my final warning. One more gaff like that and I've been told in no uncertain terms that I'm off the tour...Bang...Gone.

The atmosphere in my dressing room is a bit frosty but we're working our way through it.

They say time is a great healer and for the sake of everyone (you included!) let's hope that's true.

Anyway, Dublin, as you well know one my mostest bestest places on earth.

In a way it's great to kick things off in Ireland...In another way you kind of wish you'd arrive 6 weeks into a tour...I'm only operating at 75% myself see (had a cold for about 4 weeks now and I cannot shift it!) but as always the Irish dug me out of a hole. What a night!

The Biggest Guns Ireland has to offer had flown in from their own rehearsals in France, just for the night, to have a nosy and see what was being said and of course to talk turkey and generally misbehave and celebrate...well I'm not sure...but celebrate we did... not as hard as my bass player-the right honourable Jah-Rusta-Fari-Russell Pritchard, who I think got his end of tour party going early. "IZ FUCKIN'DARE THE EDGE LAD...GOT ANY CHAMPERS?!?" is something you don't here shouted very often (I would hazard a guess neither does The Edge lad!).

Iree Nancy got the night off to the best of starts by arriving with my eldest AND TWO leather jackets! First crisis of the tour overcome...the black stuff went down and down and down until we simply HAD to leave... Ireland, the land of my fathers, I love you very much. You haven't seen the last of me...not by a long shot...be good...and if you can't be good... be Bono!!

Arrived at East Midlands airport late last night to be met by 2 young coppers...one which says..."Evening sir can you just come this way please..round the side of the van please (a police van!)...Erm is it ok if we get a quick picture?"

GD: "Yeah 'course man.."
PC: "Shall we do it up against the back of the van for a laugh...?"
GD: "Sorry...?"
PC: "Don't worry, we won't tazer you!"
GD: "What?"
PC: "Tazer you...we WON'T tazer you?"
GD: "What..?!?!?!"
PC: "Can we JUST GET a quick picture?"
GD: "YEEEEESSSSS!!!!!"
2nd PC: "Sorry mate..he's a bit star struck"
GD: "...I'm kind of hungover...and in a rush so....."

You find me un-tazered on a golf course in Derbyshire.

About to get ready for the show tonight in Nottingham...if you're coming check out the visuals apparently they're AWSOME!

ONWARDS.

(PS) Today I have been mostly listening to Lying in the Sun by Koushik

Noel Gallagher Says Youth Culture Is Pretty Much Non-Existent

No comments












Noel Gallagher is almost as famous for his sharp tongue as he is his music career. Celebrities from Ed Sheeran to Alex Turner have found themselves in the singer’s firing line in recent weeks, but now US technology giant Apple and “middle-aged Americans” are the next victims.

“Apple came along and destroyed the f****** world. Youth culture is pretty much non-existent anymore,” he told Square Mile magazine.

“It’s this whole youth culture which is based on gadgets. It’s like Apple are driving youth culture, not youth culture driving the world.”

The 47-year-old continued: “Culture has stagnated because of conservative middle-aged Americans thinking, ‘F****** hey, wouldn’t it be cool if we could just f****** do this.’ And it’s like, no it wouldn’t be cool. No.”

The former Oasis singer – whose new band Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds was recently announced as a headliner for this year’s Latitude Festival – has 14-year-old daughter, Anais, from his first marriage to Meg Matthews.

Talking about her generation growing up in a “youth culture which is based on gadgets”, he said: “I’m not going to be some grumpy old fella telling her to put her phone down and saying, ‘Go listen to the Beatles.’ That’s her world. She doesn’t care.

He continued: “If somebody would have said to me when I was 14 about cassettes I would have said, ‘I don’t fucking care.’

“When we were growing up nobody would make you walk through an airport naked just to get on an aeroplane. And there was no 24-hour news, so they have to fill it up with bad shit. So we will always, always hark back to the old world and vinyl records and record shops and all that. 14-year-olds don’t want to hear that. Why would they care?”

Bono And Edge Enjoy Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds Concert In Dublin

No comments











Rock royalty descended on the capital this week as Noel Gallagher and his High Flying Birds took to the stage at Dublin's 3arena.

The Oasis legend packed the house on Wednesday night, but it wasn't only Britpop fans who were on hand to welcome Gallagher back to his ancestral homeland.

Fellow rock stars Bono, the Edge and their pal Guggi were also spotted among the revellers.

The U2 lads were seen enjoying the gig as Gallagher blasted out new tunes and Oasis classics.

Noel, whose parents were born in Ireland, was spotted out and about in town after the gig with The Edge. The pair were seen at new hotspot Sophie's, located in the swanky Dean Hotel.

The guitarists reportedly spent hours chatting in a private cornered off section of the trendy bar and restaurant.

It was the second night of Gallagher's UK and Ireland tour promoting his second High Flying Birds album Chasing Yesterday.

But despite the controversy Bono's best pal Guggi says the show was "fantastic".

"I really enjoyed it. It's the first time that I have seen him since he went solo," he told the Herald.
