Is there anywhere to get those 2 youtube videos from Cardiff above in the thread? My downloader won't work. Glad to hear the guys are doing well!

Noel on lead guitar is something else. He is going to be like a caged animal let loose knowing he has Gem and Bonehead alongside him to do this at all Oasis gigs. It's wonderful to see and hear.

One of the aspects so thrilling about this reunion is exactly that: Noel is back - and truly bossing - lead-guitar. I had anticipated that Gem would be doing many of the leads, as I recollect Noel somewhat stepping-back during their 2008-‘09 tour; however, what we have, is Bonehead laying-down monstrous rhythm, with Gem Archer adding tasteful fills here-and-there. They sound awesome; and are awesome. I so, so wish I could be in attendance!

Ticketless Oasis fans find a way to enjoy the gigs for free on "Gallagher Hill"

[www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk]

There’s a video, somewhere, on YouTube about this. I think it’s great to see!

Actually, there were a handful - less than Heaton Park - doing something similar before the Stones’ most recent Hyde Park gigs. The Oasis lot make it seem like a proper gathering.

Damn! Opportunity gone. Bloody spoilsports

Downloaded the bootlegs from Cardiff, listening on the way to work this morning, Liam sounding in tremendous voice. He really has gone all Jagger for this tour and got himself in tip-top condition.

I think Liam sounds great. I have always thought that Liam is/was a proper R&R frontman, loud, obnoxious, but always a great singer.
Their songs are anthemic, short, and very English.
The only criticism IO could level at them is that Noel's songs may seem like they mean something, but really don't.

That's a funny take mate, they do mean a lot to me.
Acquiesce, Live Forever, (I Got) The Fever, My Big Mouth, The Masterplan, Cast No Shadow and Stay Young especially.

Even a song like Champagne Supernova is actually quite clever when you've worked out that the line (no pun intended) "..slowly walking down the hall, faster than a cannonball, where were you while we were getting high?" is about when you're drunk and charlied at a party. You move slowly but your mind is racing.
Very clever indeed

I hear what you're saying. They mean a lot to me too. But I think, that they are always referencing.
I had just written a few paragraphs, and erased it. It's kind of a deep topic.
Ultimately I feel that all songs from Noel come out of love, and understanding for his audience. and that is huge.

Noel spotted using public transport... again!

Not a bug deal, really. He's said, before, that he uses buses and tubes.

I find it really weird that the Mail finds him using public transport to be noteworthy

Question I’ve always wondered about. Colombia is an anthem. I guess it’s been forgotten about. When Liam is singing “ this is confusion…” who is the low baritone voice singing along with him?

Well Mate, good thing about it that 80% of that rags readers will be pissed off just like The Times' and Guardian's. I appreciate that the Guardian's readers at least respect Bob Dylan but they know NISH about Rock n Roll. Always complaining at Stones and Oasis for some JEALOUS reason

Funny that this is headline-worthy . It’s like saying...
... a celeb’s dog barked at the mailman,
... their cat was sleeping on the windowsill, or
... a famous person was seen grabbing a coffee.
It’s just the usual daily gossip — nothing new, and all pretty normal scenes.
Taking public transport is just normal, and giving people space is basic respect, celeb or not.
No need to make a big deal out of it.
Of course, the paper’s editorial stance and personal opinions play a role in what they choose to report.

Well, all British tabloids report like this: whether that be more right-wing rags like the Mail, or Daily Express; or your more lefty offerings, like the Daily Mirror. The these papers' reporting priorities, and the near-obsession we have with Oasis, it's inevitable that they'll feature Liam walking his pooch, Buttons, or Noel riding public transport. Personally, I don't mind it, myself. I read my more 'highbrow' news - it's the Telegraph that's my choice - and I'll gladly browse the Mail Online. It should be pointed out, BTW: Noel's purposely made a point of advertising that he rides the tube and has an Oyster Card!

I'm smelling a possible live album; perhaps a compilation of sorts. It'll be nice to have souvenir, chronicling these magnificent U.K. shows.

Wembley Stadium setlist, July 25

They dedicated Rock 'N' Roll Star to Ozzy as well last night.

I know ya’ll are doing your own thing here but I thought I’d ask my stupid question again…

Colombia is an anthem. I guess it’s been forgotten about. When Liam is singing “ this is confusion…” who is the low baritone voice singing along with him?

I suspect it’s Noel.

Anyway, it is indeed an anthem. Reportedly, it was heard being performed during a soundcheck at one of the Wembley shows. Oasis aren’t known for mixing-up their set-lists, though they have, in the past, added the odd song during a tour. Whatever, for example, was performed a handful of times during the latter-stages of their Dig Out Your Soul tour, after being absent through the rest of the run.

I watched multiples vids. I must admit i was stunned by the awesome response by the vast audiences. Notably at Wembley. I saw them by curiosity in Paris years ago. The ambiance was not the same in comparison.

Glad they used a young picture of Ozzy, it's good to remember how he once was, not just his old worn self

Could be Anthony Griffiths as well (who harmonized on Supersonic), I need to check the liner notes. If not I think it is more likely Liam is double tracked as it doesn't sound like Noel's voice at all.

Saw them at Wembley on Wednesday night, and it's up there with one of the best gigs I've ever been to. Sound quality was amazing, good vibes all round amongst the audience, and the venue was well-organised too. Hearing a steady stream of them back-to-back reinforces just how many massive songs they have, and Liam is a completely different style of frontman to our Mick but had the audience in the palm of his hand all night.

Sad news guys, seems some poor bloke died at the Wembley did last night

RIP

Shocking.
To me, the railing doesn’t seem high enough.
With so many people packed tight and partying, he simply lost his balance, fell into the depths, and that was it.
RIP

Amazing he didn’t land on someone…

Maybe... stadium architecture, barrier and designated safety area, or less crowded area due to poor sightlines, etc.?
