Don't get me wrong, I like their music but I think they are both a$$holes. IMHO

Is it 1995 all over again? I didn't even think the Gallaghers gave a hoot about Oasis anymore, much less the general public.

This band had the potential to be as big as Pink Floyd. They are extrememly creative, and one of my 3 favorite bands. The only thing that has held them back is the rotten attitudes of Gallagher brothers. We could have had a phenominon, instead we get donkey punched. Take note of the squander that could have been one of the biggest bands since Pink floyd, The Stones, or even The Beatles. Just makes me mad to see people crap on their talents, and I have to work so hard for the little I have. You could prolly insert a number of band names in this rant, but this one was special to me. I was pulling for this band...again. I figure I'm done with them. moving on. Now to find the Darkness thread, so I can rant there. lawl

well, that band pays the bills - or it used to.

Noel will be fine as he has most of the publishing. Liam -who knows. he can write a song when he has to but he's not the sharpest knife in the drawer. his skills include punching phtographers and wearing anoraks.

the rest of them - welcome to welfare city, population you.

Fact was that the 'cult' Oasis died in 1995, and the Oasis we heard recently is nowhere near as good.

Other than whining about Jay-Z playing at Glastonbury and getting mocked as a result? Not me.

this is so common for bands.
How many times has a band come in blazing with critical success, made a huge splash and then effed it all up on immature bs?
Try and impress me with creative songwriting rather than "cool and difficult attitude".
This phenomenon seems to be the rule rather than the exception.
