I dont blame him to be honest, it was a good idea last year to play brand new material, he couldnt win, if he also played Oasis tunes people would have criticised that.
Instead Noel comes out and mixes his album with Oasis tunes which i think surprised Liam.
I dont care if hes 'selling out' and doing this to get more people to gigs, it would be a shame if we didnt hear Oasis tunes sung by Liam ever again. I think it would be good for him to sing some 'rarer' tracks like Pass me down the wine , rockin chair kinda thing than just the big name ones.
But looking forward to the next Beady Eye tour, hopefully the best tracks of DGSS, new tracks from a new album and a few Oasis tunes, should be great

In a certain sense I'm a little disappointed, but at the same time, I'll love every second of it if I catch Beady Eye this year, (never got to see Oasis live. Might make it to Noel this year, but Beady Eye is much closer to Oasis than Noel ever will be in my mind)
Kinda wish they said nothing, then just bust out Songbird once in a while as a final encore after a fucking great gig and crowd.

about time!  really happy about this, especially with liam's voice being at its best since the early 00's. I'd be really suprised if Liam didn't bring back some of the rarer, less played oasis tunes, like rockin chair or bring it on down. If he's willing to open a gig with World Outside My Room then he'll be more than willing to play a few of the rarer oasis tunes. Would love to hear Gas Panic or Boy With The Blues |

They should play: C&A, R&RS, something from BHN and Songbird.

They've done it perfectly I think. Not rushing into playing them, but not giving up on them either. Liam and the others are gonna remind everyone how an Oasis song is supposed to sound in gig.
But I don't see them playing 9 like Noel. They'll have two album, best song of DGSS, best songs of BDI album 2 and something like 5 -6 oasis songs (1 or 2 by each, one or 2 by Noel) and you get an excellent setlist.
Their show were already good but full of filler songs, the next tour is gonna be great, and Liam sounds better than ever in the 2000.
Great, great, great.

Actually, I just thought about it as if for the first time, and I'm fucking excited.
They need to do it right, throw in D'ya know what I mean and all those other ignored oasis songs that kick ass and sound fucking amazing with Liam being Liam. Needs the fucking attitude and talent that Beady Eye has. Fuck man, album release now and gig here now!!!

I see Liam sticking to a lot of Definitely Maybe songs like Rock N Roll Star, Bring It On Down and Cigarettes & Alcohol. |

Wrong you mean. I dont mind them playing their songs, but to play Noel's songs, that seems a bit desperate to me.

It can't be good for Andy and Gem's pride when they start busting out Noel Gallagher written classics from 1994-95 when Andy was in Ride and Gem was in Heavy Stereo. They've been playing those songs for 10 years, you really think those songs mean nothing to them? And even if they didn't, they mean the world to Liam and that's enough. Liam doesn't need to write supersonic to feel he owns the song as much as Noel, to want to play the song as much as noel, to want to share this song with his audience as much as Noel. A song that Liam sang is part of his catalogue as much as Noel, he could even sing Scorpio Rising if he wanted, I wouldn't be shocked. If he was a solo artist, nobody would be surprised, it's just a band name, it doesn't mean he has to give up on his catalogue. He has 20 years of carreer behind him, if he wants to share it with his audience at gig, he's got the right to do it. There's absolutely nothing "wrong" with it. He was a performer on most of Oasis song, like Elvis. He doesn't have to forget about those song just because he didn't write them, he made those song what they are anyway. |

Dave Grohl should play Cobain's songs, Macca should play Lennon's then.
If i was a performer, i wouldn't rely on other people's songs to attract my audience. Unless i'm in a cover band... which Beady Eye is going to be if they play Noel's songs. There's nothing wrong with playing them but you gotta be honest about what you are and what you are offering to your audience. Plus there's enough Oasis tracks not written by Noel to pick from. Good tracks...
Ive seen Oasis Noel-less, and that was a bit wrong, yeah.

Good tracks... Ive seen Oasis Noel-less, and that was a bit wrong, yeah. It's not the same with a singer, a singer isn't like a drummer, he's more important and defines more the song. Performer isn't a bad thing, especially when you're Liam G. It's not relying on other people's work. He sang on Supersonic didn't he? It was released with his voice ? Then it's relying on his work too, on his song too. Why is it so hard to see that? It's not like he's going to make an entire Noel's set, it's 1 or 2 song top I think. Then it's ridiculous for the cover band. Noel's band is a cover band too, Morrissey playing Smith's song is a cover band too if I follow you. If I see the singer of a band playing a song from his former band, I see a guy playing his catalogue, not at all a cover band. And I wouldn't even have any probleme with Dave Grolh playing one Cobain's song if he wanted to. It's just sharing a song with your audience in the end. The question is does the artist wants to do it or not. Liam wants to do it then fine. You think it's wrong then don't come, but it's a little hypocritical IMO. I can't see a so called "fan" not enjoying himself seeing Liam playing a C&A. |

They got some really fun tunes to select from. - Hung In A Bad Place - Songbird - Turn Up The Sun - Eyeball Tickler - Guess God Thinks I'm Abel - A Bell Will Ring - Pass Me Down The Wine - I'm Outta Time - To Be Where There Is Life - The Boy With The Blues I know I'd like to hear a couple of these songs Oasis never performed live like Eyeball Tickler, Pass Me Down The Wine and Boy With The Blues. I feel like the last one would really work live for them. |

It seems nobody really minds if Beady Eye perform LAG Oasis songs but when people start throwing around Noel Oasis songs into the mix this board becomes extremely divided. I expect this message board to go insane this summer if Beady Eye play Noel songs. I'll make sure to get the popcorn ready.

Dave Grohl should play Cobain's songs, Macca should play Lennon's then. Dave Grohl has admitted to jamming on Teen Spirit on numerous occasions and also plays a Nirvana BSide, while Paul McCartney plays A Day In The Life and Give Peace A Chance nearly all the time sooo... Anyway, Liam has been singing these songs since the day they were written. Andy and Gem were playing them on a nightly basis for 10 years so I don't see anything wrong with them playing Noel written songs. They're just as much their songs as they are Noel's. And to be honest I'd rather see Liam singing the songs without Noel than Noel singing them without Liam. We all know Noel cannot do songs like Cigarettes and Alcohol, Rock 'n' Roll Star, Roll With It etc so what's the point in all those amazing songs going to waste? At the end of the day, all the Liam-sung oasis songs were written for Liam to sing them. Why shouldn't he?? |

Most LAG Oasis songs aren't any better than their BDI material. Playing those would be a waste, especially when they have more new BDI material coming up. Playing Rock 'N Roll Star or C&A, songs that Noel could never sing or perform live, could seriously improve the quality of the gigs - it comes too late though. If their new album is released next winter, they'll have enough stuff to lose the weaker songs and replace them with new ones. Right now, their setlist could use a few Noel songs - just two or three, I'd say. Add IOT, KTDA and Songbird and there you go. I'm not sure if I want them to do Live Forever or Supersonic - sure, hearing Liam singing those would be great, but still...
