Got a chance to see them this Sunday, but the tickets are £62 each, which unbelievably, is their face value.
Worth it?
Think Kasabian are supporting, but I'm seeing them next week anyway.
You sure face value is 62 quid?! Saw Oasis, Kasabian, the Enemy and Twisted Wheel (the latter two are shite) at Heaton Park for the face value of 45 quid.
Anyways the problems with Oasis live these days as opposed to the '90s are:
1. Liam's voice is shocking, although in typical Gallagher egotistical fashion he performs a lot better and tries a lot harder singing his own songs.
2. They aren't coked out of their minds like they were in the '90s, and oftentimes won't do surprising stuff in terms of crowd interaction etc because of this.
3. They play a lot of shit from their last 2 albums - e.g the meaning of soul, to be where there's life etc, which frankly, is boring.
So as a live experience they are a watered down version of what they were, but it's still worth it since they do play most of their good songs as well, they've reverted to closing with I Am The Walrus again which is a fantastic move in my book, and Kasabian are on the same bill. My advice - go.
