Acquiesce with only Noel would seem really weird. Singing "we need eachother, we believe in one another" as he stands as a solo artist with a paid backing band would be odd to say the least.

He really is a lazy fucker. No Listen Up, Stop The Clocks, SGOG (The Good Rebel instead of this ffs!!!). Heard HTWA and TT about 60 millions times already, how about a version of Acquiesce (that we haven't heard for a long while) or something like that, maybe Waiting for the Rapture or Let There Be Love?? I know I'm being a finicky bastard but when you pay 80 quid for a ticket on the black market you want to see a bit of variety, not something you saw 4 months ago. well you haven't seen a choir, brass-section or whatever for months ago, right? i don't get it why people still complaining |

I thought the mixin was terrible on the night! Whatever was mint and I think that was one of the few songs that sounded spot on for levels! Mint gig tho, Noel was on form, hopefully they will sort the levels out for the O2 gig which is being broadcast!!

If people wana complain and moan then I can live by that, all I care about is that last night I had a brilliant night, better than most of the Oasis gigs I went to except maybe the 10 years of noise and confusion gig. for those that are moaning pre-gig then I doubt you will be moaning so much post gig, enjoy it - live a little. louderthanwar.com/featured/noel-gallagher-live-review |

The best bit of that song is the duet vocals. I don't know why it seems different than rearranging Supersonic...but it does to me.
Besides...as Noel always says. The listener makes up their own meaning...and most think about Noel and Liam when they sang that song. I would find it weird. That's all.

Great song and we know he can play it live...he did it with Gem, Andy and Chris in soundcheck. And he is missing a trick not playing LTLSALOM while he has the choir. |

Great song and we know he can play it live...he did it with Gem, Andy and Chris in soundcheck. And he is missing a trick not playing LTLSALOM while he has the choir. Could it be that the reason that he's not playing ASGOG is because of the duration of the setlist. Bear with me, but if Noel and the venue at which he is performing at have already established what the length of his gigs are, then could Noel go over it? (because obviously a venue has to worry about staff etc). If not then wouldn't playing ASGOG mean that he would have to drop at least 2 songs to stay within the time limit? Just a thought. As to why he's not playing LTSALOM, maybe it's because he doesn't feel as if he can properly do the solo bit. I don't know, maybe he thinks, that replacing the vocals in that section with just a guitar part wouldn't be enough. That's the best I can think up because I don't know why he's not playing it either. |

What are you talking about with replacing the LTLSALOM vocal solo with a guitar? ...he has a choir full of singers...are none of them capable of a doing a vocal solo? Which is why I said it would have been great for him to do it while he had the choir.
As for the idea of a venue imposed time limit? I don't believe that. He show runs what? 90 minutes? I doubt ANY venue is the anal that they would refuse to allow an act to add 6-7 minutes onto a 90 minute set...even if he didn't drop another tune for it
He's not doing them because he doesn't want to. Which is fine...up to him. I hope one day we get to hear all these songs. I have the sad feeling we may not though. If he isn't touring the AA album then by the time he tours again he'll have 3 albums of material plus Oasis stuff.
There is a lot that's gonna be left in the dust. More and more as time goes on. Wish it wasn't starting already.

ASGOG could actually have been epic. Nice version of EOTR and Whatever btw. |

However, it has come to mean as such. In any case, Noel should not even touch that song without his brother there singing the verses. |

Noel only sang the choruses because Liam couldn't hit the notes. Surely, the words just came out and sounded anthemic and life-affirming and Noel just went with it?
