The brothers come from Burnage; a largely council house estate area of South Manchester.  I know the area well and was once lined up for an apprenticeship at the local chain works.

Biggest band in the UK maybe, don't think they made much of an impact on the American scene.

 

The Americans were too busy with Blink 182 and Limp Bizkit. 😆

 

Which reminds me of a funny story about Liam Gallagher/Blink 182.

Great band IMO. One of the best debut albums of all time.

 

Slide Away, Bring it on down, Columbia (so good they named a country after it), Live Forever. 

 

Marvellous.

 

Noel is a bit of a tool though. 

Heathen Chemistry, my favourite album, the title track, Stop Crying Your Heart Out and Little by Little, great tunes.

Even if they are both Man City fans.

Showing your lack of knowledge there, old man. Noel is famously the clean living one. He's not his brother's keeper.

One of the least significant figures on the contemporary music scene today is complaining about musicians standing up and speaking their mind, when he never had the guts to speak out about any worthy causes other than himself. 

Like their music or not, Oasis is hardly insignificant.

Not to the British and he's done plenty for excellent and noble causes. 

indeed, he was the leader and founder of what was one of the biggest bands of the 90's.  he has made his money and has nothing to prove, Fair play to him for speaking out, the antics of that bob vylan character and that  awful "kneecap" out fit were an absolute disgrace along with the flag waving half wits who have no idea which river or sea they are chanting about

Just like JK rowling he dares to speak out against the modern day woke b/s festering amongst his peers, unfortunately just like JK he will be attacked by them, but thankfully again just like Rowling I doubt he gives a flying fu%K

Of course they are not , maybe not as "significant" as they were , whatever that means, but they are a creation from the 90's who's popularity 30 years later brought them out of retirement to embark on a sell out tour   I will state now that neither "kneecap" or "bob vylan"  will be around in 2 years time never mind 30.

They appealed to all the chavs and chavettes for their obnoxious behavior.

There you go again grandad, So  all their fans, literally millions of them, are either chavs and chavettes, no doubt you think the gallagher brothers deserve a "bloody good hiding" and you are the one to administer it right?

Noel, although less outspoken and a bit more refined than liam, once famously said that for many people taking drugs was "no different than having a cup of tea" he was right about that too 

Glastonbury? ok back in the day  but its run its course and its days are over, a bit like 80 year old rod stewart who was nothing short of embarrassing, some of these musicians really need to call it a day

What put me off glasto was when a few years ago a group of stuffed suits from the construction company I was working for went there "glamping" on a "corporate hospitality " jolly.    

 

Does anybody remember "The Elephant  fair" it used to be held in St germans Cornwall in the grounds of a large mansion owned by a guy called Lord Elliot  A fraction of the size of glasto but infinitely better, ,

You’re not the gold standard when it comes to music and just because you don’t like their music doesn’t mean they’re sh*t.

 

Oasis is one of the best selling bands of all time with over 70 million sold records.

"Yobbo's "   steady on grandad you'll be telling them to get their hair cut next and decrying the end of national service, they have plenty of songs , its only natural that your memory is not what it was

They're nearly 60, old enough to be great grandpas themselves.

Gallagher is right on this one. People want entertainment from musicians, not political lectures that they might not agree with. Also, pretty dumb on the behalf of the musician as politics is very polarizing and when you do this, then it will pretty much annoy at least 50% of everyone... bad for business.  Stick to what you are good at and gained fame for, as once you start straying from that, then your "opinion" on unrelated topics is no more valid that Bob's down the pub... and as Clint Eastwood elegantly put it "Opinions are like as$holes, everyone has one".

Many people have no time for this preachy nonsense from musicians and also from Hollyweird too in films, they just want to relax... let's call it "upward failure" in movies, i.e. they who get promoted beyond their ability and make films with political woke nonsense in them, then blame the public for not liking them when they flop.

Before your time. He's part of a band with brother; called Oasis; who had many hits world wide. Some people considered them to be as talented as the Beatles. You can research the rest yourself.

Better luck in 2027 Noel.

They have not come out begging for sales so don't need publicity. Liam won't give a toss what people think he likely to to walk upto the mic and say if you don't like it F  KIN do one lol.

In there hayday giddyup Oasis were the biggest band on the Planet. After 20 odd years since they split no ones come close to them. On Friday they begin there reunion World tour with ticket Concerts sold out in hours so I wouldnt say there no one hit wonders Giddyup. What band around now can sell out Wembley Stadium for 7 nights bearing in mind the capacity is 90 thousand, thats nearly 700 thousand watching them in just 7 days.

THEIR reunion................THEY'RE no one hit wonders..........THERE, I have corrected you.

Isn't English  difficult language?

I saw a clip of the "performance " no AI required he was indeed chanting death to the IDF although I'm not sure that the flag waving  idiots even knew what IDF meant, He then began a sickening rant attacking the british along the lines of "I want my country back" again mimicked by some of the crowd,  He should be arrested and jailed

Since Billy Brag disappeared he has no one to sing along with, and with the demise of ben elton there is nobody left to make him smile. the lefties are not a very humorous breed at the best of times
