The setlist is ok, some new things, all for Oasis fans. Next tour hope he drops It's good to be free and Half the world away (and Talk tonight): I love those songs, but they've been overplayed to death.

It's a shame Wonderwall has crept back into the set, surely everybody had heard this enough now?!!!

Going Nowhere is still begging to be played live. That is next for Noel.

I told you guys about the fickle crowd in my short review immediately after the concert. This review above just reconfirms my gut feelings - I couldn't be sure as I was in the middle of the hardcore fans, and it was loud (they were an awesome group of about 100).
First of all, Noel has had a pretty consistent setlist (plus minus 3 songs) for more than a year now - anyone who knows Noel's music or is the least bit interested would know this - this is why I was disappointed in the crowd - maybe I'm wrong, but as I said in my review, I think Noel felt it too...
In all fairness, it was advertised as Noel playing Oasis Greatest Hits, but I knew better and I told everyone who would listen to not expect Oasis songs, and if they weren't familiar with B Sides and THFB album, to just listen and give the music a chance on merit. My friends (some of whom are rabid fans, and some of whom were forewarned by me) had a great time, and one of them went and bought the HFB album the very next day.
But despite this, Noel performed his ass off - and it was brilliant to see him live. The chorus on Stranded... was just MEGA! Oh, Me oh MY! In the moshpit you felt alive.
Also, anyone who leaves any concert before an encore has never been to a concert before. I find it hard to believe people left before the encore - I was there and there was no visible movement until after the encore ended. Some people stayed back for Zane Lowe (not me - I went home and posted my review and limited vids for you guys).
Props to Noel for a great performance, and yeah, this was no "Argentina" crowd, but I could give a damn about the crowd. I went to see Noel, not a bunch of people smiling. And Noel was awesome. Worth it, and ten times more.

I myself was surprised about Wonderwall, but I sorta expected it, being Dubai and all. I'm sure the sponsors insisted on it - Dubai is a little plastic and commercial like that.
As Noel himself said at the end, rubbing his fingers together "Thank you for putting my kids through college". His raised and lowered his eyebrows while rubbing his fingers together! That's why Noel is Noel and we love him!
And with regards to the setlist, there are so many amazing Oasis tracks, there are always gonna be people complaining. C'mon guys - he has 50 amazing songs, and he can only choose 15 or so each evening. Give the guy a break and just enjoy his genius.

i consider myself a bit of a fanboi, but most of the people around here appear to be far beyond this. "daft" would be a term that might come close to what i'd consider them.
i'm not too excited to hear the 38387623. rendition of dlbia, wonderwall or even igtbf. it just gets boring to hear him doing the same songs over and over again. i, personally, would think that it would get boring for noel himself to do the same shit year after year after year. but i might be wrong.
at least he throws in the obscure oasis-b-side every now and then, i give him that. but overall he's a lazy fucker.

Well, I don't think Noel would dispute the last part of your statement. After all, he did write a song called The Importance of Being Idle.  Are you calling the rest of us "daft" because we happen to not mind the setlist? Keep in mind that not everyone at a concert will have heard these songs live. Noel's got to have a balance between the classics and the "lesser known" songs. I think he could rotate some of the classics in his setlist from time to time. That I would agree with. I would be fine with Noel dropping It's Good to be Free and Wonderwall (although it is very beautiful in his acoustic version), but come on, Don't Look Back in Anger? Really? It's a classic, and pretty much everyone (well, almost everyone) expects at least that one song to be in there. |

It might have been played at a little over a third of the shows. When he came to Chicago on his, I think second American leg he didn't play it, when he came to Hammond Indiana toward the end of his tour, he was playing it again. When he hasn't played Wonderwall, he's substituted it with Whatever. There's only been probably only just over a quarter of the gigs where's he played both Wonderwall and Whatever on the same night. Usually it's been one or the other. |

Usually it's been one or the other. Yes, I remember. At the concert I was at, he did the first couple chords of Wonderwall (causing half the crowd to start shrieking) and then went quickly into Whatever. I imagine Noel probably has a couple song-switches like that in mind, depending which city he's playing and what kind of crowd he's expecting. |

"I think he could rotate some of the classics in his setlist from time to time." what the fuck? just tell it the way it is! it's been boring as fuck to listen to the same songs over and over again for the last 10 years. why would i want to listen to one more rendition of dlbia that equals the exact same rendition he did last year and the year before that? it bores the shit out of me. same goes for talk tonight. i love that song but i don't want to hear it live... again! half the world away, loveley tune, but fuck me, please cut it from the setlist! |

Noel is hardly that imaginative with his set lists and he's explained why a few times so nobody should be surprised by it. But the people moaning about his picks in here is just plain weird. Two songs never performed before? And DD which hasn't been heard for years? I'd be happy with that.

It's been said many times in this thread the promoter billed this gig as noel gallagher playing oasis classics.
(Obv the promoter paid him lots of money to do this)
He didnt do this he basically did a HFB gig with few obscure songs/ B sides. People bought tickets for 'oasis classics' they got b sides they don't care about and him promoting his new album and some oasis songs .
This gig wasnt a part of him promoting HFB it was a one off gig so you can see why they weren't happy.
If you went up see a bands greatest hits one off show and they played b sides/ obscure songs you didn't know or and promoting their new solo album you'd be pissed off
I personally loved the set list and can't wait for TCT, but obviously noel would've known how the gig was being promoted and for him just to assume average ex pat would love the setlist instead of oasis classics was very naive.
