I saw them in 94 on the NME stage at Glastonbury in the rain at about 4 in the afternoon. They were fucking brilliant. Then saw them headline Glasters the following year
Then: Earls Court for what the story didnt rate the gig much to be fair, maybe due to no smoking in the venue and the bar being shut when Liam sang Cigs and alcohol with a can of stella in his hand.
Then went to Loch Lomond with my mates and my wife 6 months pregnant with my eldest. Cast were great that afternoon as were Black Grape but Oasis did a great show which i actually watched properly for ponce as i took the Mrs up a bank at the bank due to not wanting my child to be squashed.
Then saw them at Finsbury Park which was a great day out, basically a lad heavy football crowd. and the version of Columbia was off the scale. But for me BRMC were just as good and The Charlatans blew Oasis off stage.
After that they pretty much turned to shit in my eyes.
Saw High Flying Birds a year ago in Margate and it was pretty good - especially the encore of The Mighty Quinn

Totally agree about the Charlatans at Finsbury Park. They were superb that day.

I distinctly remember the biblical rain, agree about both BRMC and Charlatans both bands I love. Had a fight with a very angry Scottish man just before oasis came on who had his dick out and I'm sure had been pissing on people, I hit him half a dozen times and he would not go down! Seemed like he was on some ballistic drug and tried to bite me as well like some creature from 28 days later
Also got right down the front and was truly worn out from the tidal heave of the crowd, if you went down you were in trouble. My mate lost one of his trainers and had to bug out by the time stop crying your heart out was performed. Some good samaritan held his trainer in the air for him and he got it back, unbelievably!

I still get shivers thinking about Sproston Green at the end.
Seems like everyone saw Oasis at the Venue. All I ever got there was the Baywatch theme tune!
The Venue was great in those years. That was about the time they started putting tribute bands on, instead of real bands. (You could argue Oasis were a tribute band). It got a lot less indie apart from the top bar.
A few years earlier I saw Radiohead and Suede at The Ven when they were part of NME ‘On’ nights for upcoming bands.
Like Oakster, saw Pulp earlyish also (not early for Pulp I guess). Around 91/92 they seemed to be support at every other gig I went to across London.
Saw them at the Army and Navy Chelmsford in 94, Cliffs Pavilion Southend 95 (there’s a dvd) and after that I can’t remember how many times but there was a period when we followed them around Europe like a football team, seen them in Lille twice don’t remember either
Went to all the gigs above 2005 Etihad and Wembley with the Enemy and Kasabian fairly memorable (I think 😂)
Nowadays I go to both gigs and you get an oasis gig between Liams stuff and Noels, seen them both a lot in the last year
I reckon they’ll reform for the money as Noel might need it but a bit like the Roses it will be a short lived payday
Rumours of a reconciliation and some shows next year, including Heaton park and Wembley. Pity their last few albums were cack, and they were awful when I saw them at V 2005... But on the other hand of tickets aren't ridiculous might be worth a watch.

Im sure I’ll be there 😂
Liam could have played a couple of nights at Wembley Stadium with the demand there was.
Had a great time listening to the old Oasis bangers.
Got Liam tickets for the Thursday
