The Greatest day
This is something i wanted to do, its not a review, its actually a story about a big fan, seeing his all time favorite band for the first time.The story is long, but ill try not to make it.
The original plan was Texas, i had front row tickets for the Oasis concert in woodlands,the day the tickets arrived i showed them to everyone and kept them in a very secure place(as stupid as it sounds, i saw them every day).I was the happiest man on earth.
Then we all know what happened, Rita came, and with its ferocious wrath shattered every single hope i had, along with my heart.I felt like...dead. A strange and fast change of events(just to speed up the story) gave me the oportunity , just in time, to squeadule a 2 day trip to the home of the Braves, my baseball team, Atlanta Georgia. 5 of my best friends and me got in a van and left for the gig.
When we got there, i wasnt as exited as i was before,most of it because of my recent let down(didnt want to get my hopes up) and then because of the seats we got,(i had front row remember?).but never the less seeing all this people, all there for the same purpose, got my stomach the feeling something big was about to happen. Got to our seats and all i kept thinking was "fuck this is far, this isnt how im supposed to see them, not he first time". but never the less i was there.
Kasabian rocked,Jet rocked, but i wasnt even paying attention.One of my friends had much better seating right behind vip area because he got his ticket earlier, so he sat alone way down there until he started signaling us to come down with one hand, and with the other touching some empthy seats right netx to him.Oasis was about to play, and i kept saying to my self "this place is packing up the owner of those seats will come, you cant do this" but like i said before, that night i didnt care, so we went for it.
the experience: i was seating down when the lights went out. the moment i had imagined for years "how will it be when fucking in the bushes comes on?", took me by surprise . My first reaction was to jump and scream just like everyone but then i stopped...i wanted to enjoy fully the band members as they came out. Liam firt,Noel,Andy Gem and Zak came out and i just stared "fucking hell, they are THEM"!!!!, next thing i remember was Zak counting 1,2,123 4 but that 4!! to me was one big Bang from that moment on i was so into it, i can even remember talking to the people i came with, anthem after anthem i sang,jumped, lived. It all felt like heaven and home at the same time. the first time i made friends, that flet like old friends just by singing along,(must'v met some of you guys) strangers that felt like family when a song came we all loved.I remember one guy right after he saw my reaction in fucking in the bushes said: "i like you allready".
I allways thought to myself iv hyped so much my first oasis gig, it will never fulfill me. The thing is they blew me away with such arrogance, that seemed like they where screaming to me:
Where you expecting less?
