Those of you lucky enough to have seen the band in Manchester, Sunderland, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Slane will know just how spectacular the gigs have been.

To celebrate these gigs, Oasisinet asked photographer Tom Woodcraft to snap away for us. A selection of these photos can now be seen in the ‘Live Gallery’.

Members of Oasisinet can also upload their own photos (as well as their live reviews) in the Community Section.

A story in today’s UK Sun newspaper that Liam is set to appear in a film based on the novel Powder is simply not true. Liam has no plans to be involved on any level with the project.

‘Powder’ co-star claims the Oasis frontman is set to appear

Liam Gallagher

Liam Gallagher is set to make his acting debut as a co-star in upcoming Britpop movie ‘Powder‘, according to another actor in the film.

Guro Josh, who had a 1990 hit with ‘Infinity‘, confirmed that Gallagher was appearing alongside him in the adaptation of Kevin Sampson‘s 2000 novel. Sampson is also producing the movie.

“Producer/author Kevin Sampson has asked Guru Josh to play in the movie of his best-selling novel ‘Powder‘,” Josh wrote on his website Guru-josh.com.

“Guru Josh will act as himself alongside co-star Liam Gallagher. Is the world ready for Liam Gallagher and Guru Josh together on the silver screen? Is Liam Gallagher ready for Guru Josh?”

Sampson was formerly manager of The Farm.

Hello? Is there anybody out there? Been having technical problems with the lines of communication of late. Sorry for the break in transmission. Normal service is now resumed – and no, you’re not getting your money back!! While I’m on that subject, it seems that around 20,000 of you have asked for a refund from that night at Heaton Park!! 20,000!! So you were genuinely disappointed? I don’t recall seeing a 20,000 gap in the crowd. Cheeky cunts! Tsk ..some people.

Anyway, no such problems in Scotland. Gig at Murrayfield was great. Great crowd, as always. The Enemy and Kasabian were on top form. Didn’t see The Reverend.

Apart from – yet again! – some poor DJ’ing from Romeo the party in the dressing room was a good-un. Didn’t leave ’til the sun came up. Respect to Kasabian. They were still there when I left and they had a gig in Glasgow last night! Fuck that. They must’ve been rough as arseholes.

Off to Dublin today where, for one night only, we will welcome The Prodigy to the tour. Slane Castle tomorrow. Silvermints, Tayto crisps and brunches! YUMMY.

In a bit.

Good afternoon.

Last night was our 99th gig of this tour. NINETY-FUCKIN’-NINE!!

I have to say the people of Wales were right up there with the best. What a choir!!! You could hear them in the valleys.

Kasabian again were fuckin’ outrageous. If they’re not selling out stadiums within 2 years I’ll eat Joanna Lumley’s shit!!

Can’t remember great swathes of the night. Ricky “The Hitman” and Rhys “The (S)hit(faced)man” were on board for the evening. Apart from some woeful dj’ing by Romeo the night was a good ‘un, I think.

Off to the South of France tonight. Someone’s booked a random gig for us in Lyon (is that in the South of France?). Weather’s nice, apparently.

Tous-tous le monde ‘n’ all that.

Arright.

Great night last night. Watched all 3 bands. The Makers. The Enemy and Kasabian. From out front. All brilliant. It may have been the best I’ve ever seen from Kasabian. Great crowd. Very young. Very male. Saying that, you’re never quite sure up in the north-east, could’ve been lots of girls there. Everyone looks the same!! Unbelievable audience though. Kind of makes you wish you were 20 again and down the front with your mates.

Anyway, enough of that bollocks. Little spotty-arse Ronaldo is finally leaving England!! £80m. To Real Madrid (they could’ve bought Newcastle for that). Good riddance, I say.

Am currently en route to Cardiff. This one WILL get messy. The Peth are opening up. All 10 of ‘em. Apparently Rhys has broken his leg – and he’s still doing the gig!! He fuckin’ loves it.

Noel Gallagher erklärte einen missratenen Oasis-Gig für gratis. Die 20’000 Fans, die daraufhin ihr Geld zurückforderten nannte er in seinem Blog «unverschämte Fotzen!».

Manchester, Heaton Park

Gallagher kritisiert 20 000 Fans, die ihr Geld nach einem unterbrochenen Oasis-Konzert zurückfordern. Dabei hatte er selbst das Publikum dazu angeregt. 45 Pfund hatten Fans für das Konzert im Heaton Park in Manchester bezahlt. Der Auftritt Anfang Juni war der erste von Oasis in ihrer Heimatstadt seit vier Jahren.

«Pah … manche Leute!»

Während des Konzerts gab es technische Probleme, die Gallagher-Brüder verliessen zweimal die Bühne. Der Unterbruch dauerte insgesamt etwa eine halbe Stunde. Am Ende des Konzerts bedankte sich Noel Gallagher bei den 70 000 Zuschauern für ihre Geduld und versprach die Erstattung des Ticketpreises. Er posaunte von der Bühne: «Das ist ein Gratiskonzert.»

Etwas weniger als ein Drittel wollen tatsächlich das Geld zurück – zum Ärger von Noel Gallagher. In seinem neusten Blogeintrag wettert er: «20 000 verlangen ihr Geld zurück. Ihr wart also im Allgemeinen enttäuscht? Ich sah aber keine 20 000 Fans während des Konzerts verschwinden. Unverschämte Fotzen! Pah… manche Leute!» Schottland kenne solche Probleme nicht, so Gallagher weiter in seinem Blog.

Nächstens auf dem Gurten

Zu hoffen bleibt, dass die Technik in der Schweiz mitspielt: Oasis treten am 18. Juli auf dem Berner Hausberg Gurten auf. Unschöne Festivalerinnerungen haben Schweizer Fans bereits: Im Jahr 2000 brachen die Britpopper in Nyon nach 20 Minuten ab.

Während andere Stars hart daran arbeiten, dass ihre Shows perfekt über die Bühne gehen, hat es Oasis-Mitglied Liam Gallagher gern ein bisschen chaotisch. In einem Interview erzählte der Musiker, ihm gefalle es, wenn etwas danebengehe, da dies den Gig für die Zuschauer unvergesslich mache.

Vor kurzem hatten Fans in Manchester aufgrund von Technikschwierigkeiten 40 Minuten warten müssen, bis die Show beginnen konnte. Gallagher: “Ich mag solche Sachen, solange niemand stirbt oder verletzt wird oder Fieber bekommt, weil ihm zu kalt ist. Es gefällt mir, wenn solche Scheiße passiert, weil wir ja sonst eigentlich nicht so viel auf der Bühne machen”. Pannen sorgten dafür, dass das Spielen nicht langweilig werde, so der Sänger.

Auf keinen Fall Franz Ferdinand: Noel Gallaghers Ansichten zu Glastonbury 2009

Oasis-Chef Noel Gallagher konnte es mal wieder nicht lassen. Ein Jahr nach den Lästerungen gegen Jay-Z gibt es auch 2009 wieder eine Band im Glastonbury-Line-up die ihm nicht zusagt: Franz Ferdinand. Auch ein Seitenhieb gegen Blur darf nicht fehlen.

“Hätte ich bei diesem Billing was zu sagen, würden Franz Ferdinand ganz sicher nicht drauf stehen”, so Noel Gallagher im Interview mit einer britischen Radiostation. Warum ihm Franz Ferdinand ein Dorn im Auge sind, erklärt der Oasis-Chef aber nicht. An den anderen Headlinern wie Bruce Springsteen oder Neil Young hat Gallagher aber nichts auszusetzen.

Einen kleinen Seitenhieb gegen die ehemaligen Erzfeinde Blur – ebenfalls Headliner beim diesjährigen Glastonbury Festival – kann er sich genauso wenig verkneifen: “Na ja, wenn du ein Blur Fan bist, sie seit so vielen Jahren nicht mehr live gesehen hast und fast ein Leben lang warten musstest, bis sie erneut auftreten – dann sollte das Konzert dich ziemlich glücklich machen.”

Bei Oasis sei das alles ganz anders, erklärt Gallagher: “Ich kann bloß unsere Songs spielen, ich kann nichts anderes. Ich kann keinen Jazz oder Reggae spielen oder chinesische Opern komponieren.” Blur-Frontmann Damon Albarn hat ja in den letzten Jahren die virtuelle Band Gorillaz ins Leben gerufen und tatsächlich eine chinesische Oper komponiert.

“Wenn du bei Oasis bist, musst du gar nichts anderes machen. Das ist auch der Grund warum bei U2 niemand die Band verlässt,” so Gallagher weiter. Was er dabei wohl offenbar vergessen hat: U2 gibt es seit 1978 in derselben Besetzung, während bei Oasis außer den Gallagher-Brüdern niemand mehr von der Originalbesetzung übrig ist.

We’re all big fans of Devendra Banhart over here at Oasisinet, so were delighted when he agreed to remix a track from ‘Dig Out Your Soul‘. Noel gave him free reign over which song he chose and he decided to go with ‘(Get Off Your) High Horse Lady‘.

Devendra’s remix is very cool and chilled. We have visions of him sitting in the studio, with the lights low and all his friends around having a whale of a time!

Right now, the only place in the world you can hear this remix is here at Oasisinet. To check it out, log into Oasisinet, listen to it on Radio Supernova and let us know what you think on the Message Board. If you’re not already a member of Oasisinet, click HERE to register.

Phew!! Have been having so much fun I’ve forgotten to stay in touch.

Been up in Mcr for 6 days. What a joy it’s been. Them gigs were amazing.

You will be aware of the problems on the opening night. The PA blew up twice and we hadn’t been onstage for 10 mins! Not the best start. But the crowd were pretty cool about it.

In hindsight we may have overreacted by offering refunds etc. If any of you who were there feel genuinely aggrieved and it spoiled your night I guess you’ll somehow get your money back.

The weather, being very Mancunian, didn’t get in the way of the other 2 nights being fantastic. Saturday was truly, truly special. It was a pleasure just to be there!

I feel though that I must just give one final little bit of “kudos” (her word, not mine) to Angela Bernstein – a ginger whinger from the MEN who has written a couple of shitty little pieces over the last few days. In them she claimed that we – and by that I mean YOU – had no “right” to “come up here” from London, Liverpool, Birmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, Tokyo, LA, Milan, all over the world in fact, to “her” wonderful piece of England and enjoy ourselves and leave a little bit of mud. What a joyless old husk!! Pity Mr Bernstein – I’m assuming there is one – and her beloved little dog, that’s what I say! The fact that people – young people (remember them grandma? You were probably one once) – from ALL OVER THE WORLD came to Mcr for the weekend, some for the first time, might actually not be all that bad a thing? Think of that the next time you’re bent over in “your” park wiping your little dog’s business. We probably paid for the bins you’ll be dropping his poo-poo in.

To the rest of you. The 210,000 people who came to see us. The general consensus is that you were a credit to us – and by that I mean the band – and ultimately to yourselves.

I THANK YOU.

Am currently on the way to Newcastle to see Kasabian do a sneaky little gig tonight before we smash it in Sunderland tomorrow.

Well, Well, Well. Where do we start?

What should’ve been the start of something monumental turned into a fuckin’ shambles. No sound. Half the lights. No inspiration. Fuckin’ rubbish. Somebody lost a LOT of money last night – probably me.

I think I’m still a bit furious. I would apologise but it was nothing to do with me – you can’t get the staff, etc.

I guess if you’re cheeky enough to ask for a refund you’ll get one.
