Back home, worth every penny. Mad for it.
Re: Oasis playing in Cardiff
Didn’t go but have been out with friends tonight who went last night. They had a brilliant night, did say that that Oasis really didn’t have to sing because the crowd sang every word. What a great week with the Blackweir gigs and Oasis for Cardiff though, it does put our city on the map.

What a night. One that will live long in the memory. Worth every penny.

It certainly was.
An emotional evening, as Underhill said earlier in the thread, it was the sound of our youth and last night provoked a lot of nostalgic memories. I even enjoyed my missus company for a few hours.
Cast, Ashcroft and then Oasis. Great night.

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.
What kind of sophistry is this?

There has always been plenty of guitar bands around but not mainstream. If you lad loves that type of music, tell him to listen to James & The Cold Gun, Slate, Eurekas, Soundwire, The Family Battenburg, Pigion Wigs, Dactyl Terra. All welsh bands. He might not like any of them, but there are plenty of guitar bands about :thumbup:

His son has probably played alongside a few of those bands, very talented Bass player :thumbup:

This was posted on the Bristol City forum towards the end of last year. They're quite complementary.
The last poster in the thread said... "Unfortunately, Cardiff leaves Bristol in the shade and the gap is getting wider"

Hope you stood your ground butt?
I felt for the Brazilian couple next to me a little as he looked at me and I said "not a fuucking chance, sorry butt..." but me, my lad and even the wife all fuucked that suggestion off.

That may well be over the top and of course they aren’t everyone’s cup of darjeeling, that being said Cardiff and Wales is painted in a great light and I really can’t see any other show that they do having the impact of last night.
People on Twitter banging on what a great place Cardiff is helped my 4th of July hangover today :)
I’m going to try and catch them in NYC I think.
Floor tickets just went up from under $500 on Friday to $875 today. I'm waiting until the last minute. I hope it rains. I've got a poncho.

Some might say it was beating the jacks, but beating Man City was the highlight of that season for me.

I’d love to have been that cameraman.
It would have been yrs before he was able to sing anything. What a grade A Manc Prick.
