Sound: The sound of the the concert was amazing; guitars, bass, vocals and drums all sounding great. Liam in top form with his singing while Noel and Gem guitars packing a punch with their range of Gibsons, the odd Telecaster and acoustics. Andy stuck wiv his burns bass the hole time I think and Zak's drumming sound gave the music its edge. // 10

Impression: UK, Milton Keynes, National Bowl, July 9. Had 4 opening acts - Red Walls were brilliant. 22-20s ok not really my thing. Strange Machines terrible and boring as hell. Th Zutons soo godd they could have been the hosts of the show. I loved the Whole show apart frm the fact that they didn't play Supersonic which is a shame. For £32.50 the tickets were more than worth the money. The most unforgetable moment was just watching them walk onto the stage especially Liam with his swagger. If I had the chance I'd go to see them again id take the chance and probably enjoy it just as much or more. // 10

Sound: Liam Gallagher was typical Liam with all the attitude in the world but not that good a voice. His was a lot better than Noel's on the track'Importance Of Being Idle' which was appauling. Noel was using a mixture of guitar from a Gibson 335 to a Fender Telecaster. The quality of the soung was not that bad but there was a serious lack of passion from the band. // 4
Perfomance: The audience had a great time as there were so many singalongs but some parts of the audienec, me included were frustrated by the amount of new songs being played and the amount of classic tracks such as Supersonic and Roll with It that were left out of the set list. The best song of the night was by far 'Rock 'N' Roll Star' which was near perfection. In a great contrast Oasis' version of My Generation was a descrace to the original with Liams voice not sited to the song. // 3
Impression: The venue was the National Bowl in Milton Keyens and the venue was a nightmare on the day as there was a 45 minute queue for Bear and too many larey middle aged men getting too drunk. The main support act where the Zutons who put up a good performance playing very light hearted indie singalongs. The ticket was £33 which was far too expensive judging by their performance. After this showing I will not be going to see Oasis again and I am refusing to buy another album if I is anything like their latest one. // 1

Go see the rolling stones if you want to hear the same old songs everynight. Your an idiot, of course there going to play new songs.
Take your head out of your arse and realise that's there's more to Oasis then Definetly Maybe and What's The Story (Morning Glory). They played 8 songs from those albums. Isn't that enough?. Yeah those 2 albums are classics but Acquiesce, F--kin' In The Bushes, Songbird, The Importance Of Being Idle are just as good as songs on the 2 albums
i used to like oasis, but sinse learning to play guitar (ive been playing 4 years now) ive realised just how talentless they are. Drums is simple, guitars are way too easy and the vocal quality is very hit-miss with them. Sometimes they perform gr8 (like on their acoustic sets) but other times they sound really bad. Indie rock doesnt take that much skill. Im into rock and metal now coz its more challenging. Anyway, thats just my opinion, im not dissing anyone here.

Most of the best bands in history have written quite simple songs. Sometimes the beauty of something is that it not only good to listen to buut also you can play along on your guitar, a good thing no?
