Oasis playing in Cardiff

Re: Oasis playing in Cardiff

I don't want to get the Daily Mail readers frothing, but some cyclists are *****, especially the ones in 'Full kit' I prefer the scallies with an Uber bag on their back and a face covering, they do so much more for the local economy.....

They'd do alot more if they paid tax on their earnings.....

Re: Oasis playing in Cardiff

Not my cup of tea and in my opinion the whole narrative (or what we now call 'vibe') of 'britpop' was one of the worst things to happen to British music. Britpop dominated the music industry and media at the expense of better musicians, in particular black and female artists. IMO it was quite a flag waving, shallow misogynistic time.

However, if you like or liked Oasis and got a ticket, good luck... What a moment in history and from all reports I've read it sounds like they were very good, if that's what you're into, wonderful. Also, it's brilliant for the city and quite an occasion.

I won't knock people for going, and you never know, Bucks Fizz may also reunite and make a come back, intellectually and musically dwarfing Oasis.. Now that would be a gig for the ages.

Bick's Fizz? I'm hanging on for the Cheeky Girls re-union!

Re: Oasis playing in Cardiff

It’s a pretty big deal for Cardiff and Wales, Oasis kicking off a sold out World Tour in Cardiff.

They are far from my favourite band, massively overrated in my opinion.
But news wise it’s pretty big and I think that they are more important now than they were then.

A few Mates watched them in TJ’s, Newport around 95. I saw them in Cardiff at the Ice Rink around March 1996.

Anyone there at that gig, anyone see them elsewhere in their early day and anybody going tomorrow?

The March 1996 dates were in the CIA, the first night support was Heavy Stereo (Gem Archer's band) and the second night were the Manics. This was my first ever gig, aged 14. The Manics were great (first Welsh show after Richie vanished, and only the second since that sad event) but Oasis, despite me being a massive fan, were a little underwhelming.

Fast forward to 2005 and I saw them again at the Millennium Stadium as part of Noise and Confusion - they rattled through a shoddy 90-minute set which saw most people leave during their encore. Foo Fighters were on just before and basically upstaged them with a solid stadium rock show.

Last night they were unbelievable LOL, genuinely night and day from what went before. Couldn't have hoped for a better two hours. That was gig 115 for me and up there with the best - just an awesome set, stage set-up, setlist and crowd. Only 3 songs from after 1995 tell their own story!

They're only doing the same as David Beckham, Gary Barlow, Michael Caine etc.

Or do you have to receive a honour from the Royals before you can start avoiding tax?

My neighbours son got 2 tickets for £40 each an hour before the show last night.
From one of these legitimate late sell on sites

Re: Oasis playing in Cardiff

Whilst never a fan back then, although I've been out lately to see a few oasis tribute bands and enjoyed them, I think there is a public now fed up of manufactured and packaged music and would like to just go out and see instruments being played, singers singing and not miming, hopefully it's a start of the guitar music comeback, my lad has never been so busy giggling, he's not long finished his 1st of 3 gigs today.

Re: Oasis playing in Cardiff

I went to the CIA gig back in 96, despite thinking Morning Glory not being as good as their first album. I lost all interest by the time their third album came out and would have absolutely no interest in seeing them this time round even if the ticket prices were cheap. But fair play to those choosing to spend their hard earned dosh on experiences that would interest them.

I go to fair amount of gigs still. Horsegirl in Bristol Theckla a couple of weeks ago was very good. Really looking forward to seeing Bodega in a couple of weeks at Bristol Trinity.
