I got this idea from catching the big 4 of thrash metal and was wondering who were they and if a concert would at all be possible

If we count Oasis as britpop, something I wouldn't since they made different music : Oasis Blur Pulp Suede If we don't, bands like Gene or Elastica can be included.

^^^ Sorry, like it or not but Oasis were the kings of Britpop.
Top Britpop 4, I'd say were:
Oasis Blur Pulp Supergrass
... and three of those bands have split up.

^^^ What an awful list of bands.
Just get Oasis, The Manics, The Verve and Pulp on the one bill and fuck the rest.

Manics were very big in 1996 and lumped very much part of the Britpop era (Design for Life was a Britpop anthem) and Urban Hymns as borderline Britpop on its release. The cream of Britpop was fucking awesome at the time but there was a fair amount of shit with it. Ah, the halcyon summer of '96, lol. "You give me road rage!"

Actually, it depends on what you think of britpop, if you see it as a cultural movement that included a feeling over the music similarities, Oasis are britpop, if you see it as only music, Oasis aren't, since they have nothing to do with Blur, Pulp or Suede, bands that have similarities between them in the britpop era The same happens with Manics or The Verve ( their early albums are more close to shoegaze than to britpop, actually )

Manics and The Verve ain't britpop. Everything Must Go and This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours are pretty britpopeque. The Verve weren't a britpop band but about half of Urban Hymns is britpop and that is the album that made them huge.

There are not four. . . only one. . . OASIS! They were everything to music in the mid nineties to England. Additionally, they don't sound like anyone else. True upperclassmen!

I agree that the Manics were lumped in with all the rest of these bands because Everything Must Go was release in 1996 and it was like a coming of age album for them, but I think Nicky Wire would want to smash your face in if you said he was part of britpop to be honest.
