Oasis reunion.

[Brandane]

Oasis. Yawn. Two nasaly Mancunian brothers who are a bit full of themselves, but managed to sell a few records in the 90's..
Thirty years later, and they must have received a tax bill or something similar. Because every time I turn on the TV news or the radio, there is something on about their reunion concerts. Followed by another of their tunes, in the case of radio coverage.
Are we going to get this for a full year in the lead up to the concerts? If so, my Spotify subscription is going to have turned out to be a great investment. It's an oasis of being free from Oasis. I didn't like them in my 30's, and even less so in my 60's.

Yebbut; the clue is in the title! Easily avoided - unlike the radio/tv coverage .

At least we don’t have to worry about a Smiths reunion.
Morrissey claims he was up for it, but Marr turned it down.

Worst Beatles tribute act ever.

There are some funny comments on Facebook. I read one that said " I was walking the dog and came across an Oasis ticket nailed to a tree. I thought I'll have that. You can never have too many nails.

FFS, please, no...

That's surely only being given any mileage because they're from Manchester and hate each other?

Morrissey was a pr!ck to begin with but he's gone off the deep end in recent years.

Blur Vs Oasis in the 1990s was huge, at least until everyone with taste realised Liam Gallagher is a massive nob and Blur were always the better band lol 😁

Don't look back in anger. Just roll with it, or have some cigarettes and alcohol.

I loved the way Neil Innes sued them for nicking his song 'How Sweet To Be An Idiot', they're so thick they thought he'd nicked a Beatles song. The closest association between the Ruttles and the Beatles was George Harrison or rather the company 'Handmade Films' due to the friendship between George and Eric Idle

I preferred Blur, Oasis just sounded like a nasal whining rip-off of The Beatles. Never liked their full-of-it-attitude. However, Don't Look Back in Anger was a good 'un...pity they're brotherly A-holes. Reunion?....please just retire and spend your dwindling millions. This is gonna be a big rip-off reunion, hotels are apparently already gearing up for it. And unfortunately, the remnants of The Sex Pistols are getting back together too.

They played at Whitley Bay Ice Rink just outside Newcastle in 1995 (Ocean Colour Scene were the "special guests") for £12.50 and were banned from the venue for being fools in the bar afterwards.

Generously they have lifted the ban should they decide to perform there next year.
