recensioni fan:
After months and months of waiting, Liam, Noel, Gem, Andy and Zak didn't disappoint. Incredible, they did about twenty songs, the same setlist as they'd done in Japan a few weeks ago. Liam was in classic form: wearing a thick coat despite the weather, swaggering around the stage, dropping in a "fuck" here and there during songs, and swearing at some wanker in the crowd with a proffessional camera. Liam dedicated "Cigarettes and Alcohol" to George Best, "Bring it on Down" to backpackers, "Live Forever" to the British, and "Wonderwall" to the girls. Noel riled up the crowd by dedicating "Don't Look Back in Anger" to our "shit cricket team".
Musically it was great, very tight performance. Liam's voice sounded powerful, something that hasn't always been the case this tour. Noel was pretty quiet all night, didn't have a lot to say, but he charmed everyone with his vocals on "The Masterplan", "Don't Look Back in Anger", "The Importance of Being Idle" and so-forth. That said, when Liam left the stage for the Noel songs, the band lost a bit of their stage presence.
Zak was astounding on drums, absolutely annihilating his kit. Probably the best drummer that I've seen before. Gem played the role of second guitarist brilliantly, throwing in the harmonica solo during "Mucky Fingers". Andy Bell was pretty tame, dressed like someone out of Where's Wally he just stood at the back and did nothing at all really. On keyboard, synths and so-forth was a strange-bloke who looked uncannily like Jesus. I always thought the second coming of Jesus would occur during an Oasis or Queen gig.
The setlist was good, as I mentioned before, it was the same as in Japan. Nice selection of songs, but as has been the case all this tour, there was virtually nothing present from 1996-2002. As you'd expect, it was the classic '94/'95 era material that went down the best, although "The Masterplan" seemed popular.
Moron watch: thumbs down to the man behind me who fell asleep. Why are you at an Oasis concert!?! Also, what the shit was with the girl and man next to me who decided to go and buy food during "Wonderwall". Ummm. Worst of all, I can't believe idiots started to leave while the "My Generation" finale was still going. Insane.
