Anyone else curious as to how Noel's going to work the Oasis songs he plans on playing into his live set? Chances are he's gonna play them solo acoustically, but I'm really hoping we hear a full band version or even a newly arranged version to fit his band's style. I'd love to hear some Oasis songs re-worked, even at the risk of them not sounding as good.
What are your opinions?

I dont think its gonna be solo acoustic. Probably more like how they did dlbia, tha masterplan and so on, on the last tour. Noel talked so much about how he doesnt want to be a front man, that i dont see him want to send the band off for those 5-6 songs.

He said that is freaked him out a bit trying to recreate those Oasis songs with a whole new band.
It might be acoustic though. He won't need a band to feel comfortable with front whatever songs he has picked.
I loved the acoustic DLBIA so I hope that stays similar to DOYS. He should never do Wonderwall electric. TIOBI will probably be done like it always is. I'd like The Masterplan with the full band.
Those are the tunes I think he'll play.

I agree that if he only plays 3 oasis songs it'll probably be solo acoustic. I think he'll play 5 or 6 though. My money's on dlbia, htwa, tm, lf, whatever and maybe wonderwall..

The great thing about most of Noel's songs is that there is so much scope for further additions. Most likely though, the Oasis songs will be performed in a similar manner to Noel's previous solo tours but with a few things tweaked.
I think the overall sound will be reminiscent of The Sand Band. I have a suspicion that David McDonnell will make a big impact on the band. All Through The Night is a great album, they remind me a more mellow version of The Verve. Noel has picked a great guy there and I think the two are a good match.
I hope he ropes in pedal steel guitarist, Jon Graboff worked on the album so it'd be nice to see him play alongside him (he was awesome for Ryan Adams & The Cardinals).

He's said 4-5, I think. And he isn't doing any that are too strongly associated with Liam. No way is he playing Live Forever. Way more likely to play Wonderwall. In fact Wonderwall is the one I am most sure about after DLBIA and TIOBI. |

I hope he wont play wonderwall, its been played so much, and its limited how it can be approached differently. I think he'll have the 1 or 2 odd songs there, sort of like how the setlist for the ldsmd tour was. I dont think tiobi will be in the setlist. its too similar to tdoyam and it sort of had its time in the spotlight (imo) |

I wouldn't be surprised to see Live Forever get played...that's one he's played solo before (in Korea during the DOYS tour if I'm not mistaken) and carried off quite well with just him and an acoustic guitar. He and Liam have both sung it over the years and it wasn't one of the ones he listed as a Liam-specific tune.
My money would be on him playing DLBIA, TIOBI (despite its similarity to TDOYAM, it might be his favorite song post-2000) Masterplan, HTWA, and Live Forever. Either TIOBI or HTWA could get scrapped in favor of Falling Down, though.

As much as he said he doesn't want to sing a Liam-specific tune, it'd be fab to hear him try one...The huge surprise at him playing Digsy's Diner and Rockin Chair at TCT was unreal and they worked so well...while he could get away with the "standards", it'd be much more enjoyable to see him pull out a few surprises.

Noels Oasis playlist will consist of:
DLBIA
HTWA
TM
TIOBI
FD
WFTR
Talk Tonight
Past those, I find it hard to think of any reason he would branch out past that, but he could pull in some more b-side tunes to give the fans a little love.

Has Noel ever played a gigs with Oasis or acoustically without Wonderwall?
I know that the board isn't overly in awe of that tune. But it's an amazing song and definitely the most famous song in his arsenal!

But it's an amazing song and definitely the most famous song in his arsenal! There has been a time when Wonderwall was not played. Wonderwall was rarely played during the Heathen Chemistry tour and Tour of Brotherly Love (2001). Some notable gigs that Wonderwall didn't get played at are the N.Y. Radio City Music Hall, Barrowlands, Finsbury Park, Zenith 2002, and Osaka Japan. There are few more gigs during that 3 year span where Wonderwall wasn't played. I just listed the more famous ones. But that seems to be the only span where Wonderwall was not a significant part of the setlist. The more interesting question is whether there's been a gig where Noel hasn't played Don't Look Back In Anger. Because I can't think of any. |

I'm talking about post DM. Not pre- DM. After What's The Story Morning Glory was released it's near impossible to find a gig where DLBIA wasn't played. |

Her question was definitely valid. She basically asked that since the WTSMG was released has there been a gig where Wonderwall wasn't played? It was a very good question. Took me sometime for me to be sure of my answer. Mainly because the period in which it wasn't played after WTSMG was a short period and it was an off and on thing. Some nights they played it, some nights they didn't. Even hardcore fans assume that since Wonderwall was released, it's basically been played every night since then. It's not that much of an "of course" question. Took me sometime to think about it, recall, and dig for the setlists so I could be right on my hunches. |

tbf, according the spanelis, answer the last time that Wonderwall was not played @ a gig was @ least a couple or three years before I became a fan. It's not alarming that I don't know. But he does have more previous of doing Wonderwall solo than he does Live Forever. DLBIA is a song that is massive, he loves it, and it isn't associated with Liam. It would be the surprise of the century if it wasn't played so thinking about that is useless.
I honestly think that Noel will play Wonderwall, DLBIA, and TIOBI for sure. I would also love to hear his acoustic Slide Away some more as well. I can never have too many bootlegs of that. The similarities between TIOBI and TDOYAM have been blown out of proportion. The similarities are pretty immediate...but after you've listened a few times I think you can see how superficial those similarities are.
It's not going to be enough to keep it off the setlist IMO. It's one of Noel's strongest post 2000 tunes.

I dont recall if it was brotherly love and/or the heathen chemistry tour, but Noel got tired of wonderwall at one point. Saying something like, it was for his ex and he would never play it again. It wasnt just a few gigs it was left out (we all know that oasis never changed their setlist depending on where they played) I dont know why it got back in, popular demand or Noel realising how great a song it is?
You're right that the similarities between tiobi an tdoyam might be superficial, but they are there. It might be 2 different songs, but his singing style is exactly the same. They would never be played next to eachother, and i think if you already think about where to place it in the setlist, you might as well leave it out. Tiobi is the one oasis song that sounds the most like Noel, and not oasis. I think that with a new album, thats purely him, he would want the oasis songs to stand out from that. I'd prefer sa, igtbf, tt and almost anything else to it, because we heard it so much and its one song that isnt gonna sound new because you cant really do too much with it to change it around.

Noel decided to play again Wonderwall after Ryan Adams' cover.
