Hi guys, I would like know how many of the Oasis nuts like myself on this board would love for Oasis to bring out a collectors label which would mean every month or so they would bring out either a live concert on cd or a dvd. These deluxe limited edition CDs and dvd's would be produced for Oasis fans and would feature unreleased performances. every cd/dvd release would have great artwork and come with a booklet a story behind the show when it was recorded how it was recorded and the importance of the gig. Being a big Elvis fan this has been working a treat for the past 10 years so i'm wondering if Oasis would set up a similar idea  Can you imagine the gigs we would get these are just a few Earls court 1995 both nights digipak with dts sound and recut from the master tapes. Maine road gigs same thing with a behind the scenes doco of the gig Slane castle 1995 we have nothing from this show in terms of footage i can't believe this...... Loch lomond 1996 again 2 quality shows knebworth gigs filmed with 3 tv crews ........1 captured it on film even  earls court 1997 all 3 nights haha we have nothing released ? i could go on and on what makes me upset is all this great footage of our band and it's gathering dust somewhere ? so why not put it 2 good use and make some money off it ? I just think we need to push the buck here and start jumping up and down because i think the day they do decided to release stuff there will maybe not be a bigger market for it as today.... in closing i even asked noel Gallagher at a question and answer thing in Australia if Oasis were going to release the finsbury park gigs of 2002 which were amazing but once again he skimped over my question... i said that all the fans thought this footage was coming out due to the live promo of little by little noel said this was brought out due to the video clip being shit haha what do other fans think of my idea ? |

I really like your idea, Oasis are too lazy for it....  |

it'd be a great idea, but like jenny said, oasis are too lazy to get behind something like that (at least on a monthly basis).

Yeah! I support your idea 100%, mate! I would love to have those dvd you mentioned on cd. The G-Mez concert would also be really great to have on cd. Fortunately though, Oasis have such a huge bootleg marked. But I'd rather have their shows on official cds with cool artwork, and like you said, an information booklet. |

Regarding the "too lazy" comments - do you mean that Noel is too lazy or Oasis' management are?
I also think it's a little unfair to mention Elvis - his organisation are totally dedicated to making as much money as possible, and there obviously isn't any new material to worry about, so it's pretty easy to do it.
I don't think it will happen for the following reasons:
- Noel is a perfectionist and wouldn't allow an official release to go out unless he was 100% happy with every aspect - meaning a FTM every month!! If that happened, then you would NEVER get a new album or tour!
- Noel is perfectly happy with fans buying bootlegs of live gigs etc, and these are soooooooo easy to get.
- Information on the gigs is also extremely easy to get, so there isn't much need for an additional brochure to go with it, which would probably end up being full of quotes from fans, anyway.

I understand what your saying but i can't agree there
i think Oasis management who bring out releases need to take a good hard look at themselves it's happened for years rubbish releases.....
You go on to say about Noel being such a perfectionist is this why he didn't allow 4 songs not to be included on the latest live dvd Manchester 05 ?
How on earth can you cut 4 songs out from a live show i think this is very lame i believe he broke some guitar strings if this is the case why couldn't they of released another night or another show ffs.....
There is countless amounts of footage not seen of Oasis and have you ever wondered why all the live shows that are brought out are gigs from uk never anywhere else this really shits me.....
I think it's time they just look after the fans more with some decent stuff not these half assed rushed releases
that is the point I'm making
and as for Allan white i love you and miss you

How on earth can they do that, when they wait a whole year to release the Lord Don't Slow Me Down dvd? Which by the way I enjoyed very much, especially the band commentary. That was just pure class! And not to mention the new album. It's nearly gone three years since Don't Believe The Truth Was released. The only half assed rushed release I can think of they've done lately, was the Lord Don't Slow Me Down digital single. At least they should've released it as a standard cd release. And the B-sides (As good as they where) was just to live tracks from their Manchester gig from '05. They should at least include a new song on it. Just to ease the wait for the new album. One last thing, I really wish Alan White still was their drummer too. I've been listening to a lot of bootlegs lately, and his drumming on, say, Wonderwall and Supersonic was just brilliant! Especially from their Be Here Now tour! |

I think it's time they just look after the fans more with some decent stuff not these half assed rushed releases that is the point I'm making and as for Allan white i love you and miss you Firstly, I understand your point, but don't agree at all, because I think the fundamental issue is that if there were monthly/bi-monthly/whatever official live releases, then Noel would want to control these and ensure they were to the quality he wanted. The result of this would be a hell of a lot of work for him, which I don't think is fair to expect. Which releases do you think were "rubbish"? I can't think of one single "rubbish release". Also, please elaborate on "half assed rushed releases" ...... a common, consistent criticism of Oasis is that they take too long to release material! NOT that they just release what they can, whether they are 100% happy with it or not!! Didn't understand that comment at all. About Noel being a perfectionist - yes, he is. As he didn't include certain songs from Manchester then I trust that these were omitted because he didn't feel they were to the standard required, and I trust his judgement on this! It certainly didn't spoil my enjoyment of the dvd and it's not difficult to get a copy of the entire gig, anyway. Regarding non-UK shows being released - I have many, many dvds/cds of gigs outwith the UK and am happy with this! I think it is difficult to criticise any of the official live releases, to be honest, and each was chosen for specific reasons. Which gig would you have dropped, and which non-UK gig would you have particularly liked to have seen? Lastly, Alan White is gone!! I thought he was great, and I'm not 100% crazy on Zak (I explained why in the thread about him) but you just have to accept that they have chosen him. If I could choose, then I would have Noel doing all of the drums on the recorded versions, and then Terry live. |

Hey dude it prob seems like I'm bitching alot haha sorry if i come across like this but i will go over a few things that i'm not happy with and am happy with. Firstly imo oasis best dvd release was there and then for 2 reasons they were at there peak and the shows were amazing and 2nd is that the sound mix especially on the maine road gigs and who were they mixed by ?...coyle the vocals were pushed right up in the mix and it's amazing the dvd i wasn't happy with was definatly maybe dvd i thought this was very lame in terms of quality and production.... the use of these shocking 6th generation tapes from fans to put out on a dvd was lame when i'v seen 1st and 2nd copies in private hands.... and being a cameraman myself i can understand the way they tried to sync the footage the sound didn't like it myself..... 3rdly i'm not saying they must do it asap but i think they need to look at this maybe when the band is over or just to be mind full there is many gigs we would love to see... tell me you wouldn't love to see Slane castle 1995 ? i'v never seen even a photo from this gig and stop me if i'm wrong it's not that easy to sell out a place that huge. in closing i think oasis are a bit lazy in promotion now they need to keep reaching out to new country's and new challenges or you become very boring ... and also the set list would you agree they need to refresh this any time soon i understand liam is not 21 anymore but i'm sure there is songs from the back cat that liam can sing and when noel says it's liam not wanting to sing the older songs that's bullshit because noel is the lazy one liam is mad4it liam is also the one who loves be here now and would do songs off that album still his been quoted in saying this ...... but then noel says we never play that album anymore because fans don't request it haha what ever at the end of the day Oasis are like a footy team to me and i will support them till the day i die maybe i care just 2 much |

I don't feel Oasis would be bothered for something like this. Shame really as there are a lot of Oasis fans out there.
I know U2 give away limited edition live cd's to members of their website. Some nice items can be gained for simply subscribing. Not sure how much the subscription is, but i know in the past few years they have given out live cd's from various tours.
