UK tour; indoor arenas? Jul 8, 2008 12:15:56 GMT -5

Right... so I haven't really made any bones about my intention to hop the pond for a show or two on this tour, but I'm a little discouraged because it seems that if it goes off in Oct/Nov as expected, we may not get any outdoor stadium shows at least until next year. Bands in the UK don't do stadium shows that late in the season, right?

As I see it, it'd be pointless to spend so much of my weak-ass dollars to go over and see the same fairly soulless, corporate arena show I can get in any city over here. Yes, I know its Oasis and MSG was epic, but MEN Arena would basically be the same thing.

The only indoor venue I feel like I might get excited about would be Earls Court. For the UK members here, are there any other legendary indoor venues that you think Oasis might hit that would make it worth the trip?

All standing, makes for a great atmosphere, and the sound quality isn't actually as bad as has been made out. It certainly beats the MEN Arena.

Great topic. Im in the same boat kinda. I wanna go see the lads in the UK but, didnt even think about the no stadium gigs... I guess any UK show would be great, the band ofcourse would be the highlight but, for me, the fans have a big part in it. I love being at gigs where the fans go absolutely mental...and we dont' really get that out here in the states....so maybe seeing them in a large arena wouldnt be as EPIC as a stadium but, still worth the journey.

saw morrissey at manc central, thought the sound was awful...
saw manics at the MEN, sound was superb, even made ian brown sound half decent live....

themasterplanet: A Northern Soul by The Verve! My second favourite album by them. I love the atmosphere of it, it’s very dreamy and melancholic and dark. It holds many memories for me and I think that’s partly responsible for why I love it so much. Sept 6, 2024 18:57:34 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Up in the Sky sounds like the La's on steroids, especially that Liam Falsetto that I can almost picture Lee Mavers singing with all his big teeth showing Sept 12, 2024 7:52:29 GMT -5

ennex: G'day folks, Sept 21, 2024 4:51:22 GMT -5

colincarrot: ...it says I don't have permission to access this thread, maybe it's because I only joined today but I'm not sure what to do, could somebody help or know what to do?

Bring It On Dan: I have so much shit on an old hard drive somewhere but I just cannot find it. Nothing 'out there' but probably 200 gigs or so. I can't remember the name of the site that had all the gigs listed and sources for loads of gigs next to it? I remember RKID 003. Sept 24, 2024 17:34:46 GMT -5

mimmihopps: Bring It On Dan, it must be sadsong.net. I don't know if the site still exists. Sept 25, 2024 7:20:44 GMT -5

gottabecrazy: RKID003 was a great resource, they shared a lot there there really. I wish something similar could be up again. Sept 25, 2024 17:50:23 GMT -5

PollyWantsACracker: Been off the site for over half a decade, good to see it still going strong after all these years. Good to be frickin back again eh. I thought of the place after hearing today from a friend that Oasis is back in business again. Sept 26, 2024 17:07:27 GMT -5

RUBIKON: I'm gonna restart the Oasis MP3 Archive is anyone's intersted in helping? I ran it in 2000 to 2002 and was a great site. Used to use mIRC to get all the boots. I'll build the site, just need links to one drives and files. PM me if you fancy helping out Sept 29, 2024 8:31:27 GMT -5

Bonehead's Barber: spooky! Oct 17, 2024 8:13:01 GMT -5

ginwaiting: Hey I was lucky to get tickets for Heaton Park on the 19th July, my mate also got tickets so we have all decided to go on another night so I would like to sell my tickets for the 19th. Please drop me a message if you interested. Thanks Nov 6, 2024 7:17:10 GMT -5
