It is when you play New York three times in a span of a year and a half. That's over touring.

When the majority of those 14 are within driving distance of each other: Washington, New York, Philli, and Boston. That is over touring.

Beady Eye didn't sell out those shows because of Beady Eye.

As Lennon2217 says, they clearly could tour America. But they were the ones who went for gig capacities the third time through that was above what they could play. That's over booking.

No one here is asking for another three New York shows. But clearly Beady Eye were successful in the limited tour set-up. As Lennon said, they have to be smarter. They won't be able to play to over 2k, but they will play to about 1,200. That would be a good show anywhere else. As Frodis said, American fans have shown that they will travel to get to gigs.

If Beady Eye doesn't play here, that's on them. But audience is clearly here for a few select shows. And Caochella, New York, LA, Chicago, and Toronto would have been something doable.

And to be honest, I would be shocked if they didn't. Consider all the rhetoric Liam came out with after the beginning of DGSS about how much he wanted Beady Eye to be big. To forsake the US would be a shock. Something that's feasible for a mid level band. For a band with Liam Gallagher, the former frontman of Oasis, to say it's not feasible to come to the US is a shock.

Especially considering they could just as well tour as a lower bill band if they so needed to. It was good enough for Noel, it should be good enough for Beady Eye.

There's already a recording on Dime mate, kindly upped by METAMARC, my recording wont be up for a week or so.

But yeh some of the stuff said at the Cologne gig:


"This ones for all the scardy cats who are gonna end up back on the dole"
"It's not about the rock n roll anymore, its about the fucking money"
"I've got to let you know, that Coachella is no show"
"Now its time to talk some shite"

He definitely said "Fuck Oasis" too when the crowd were chanting it after Wonderwall.

He was proper pissed off at the gig, facing his mic the other way, swinging it around, sitting down etc..

Plus his Twitter update that day, I definitely something happened with the negotiations with Coachella that pissed him off

Or saying that it could be something to do with this DM re-release / reunion?

Fuck knows

www.coachella.com/ beady eye confirmed

ever thought it may have something to do with liams court case??just a thought if theyve cancelled it.. also your all going on about lack of tour but simple point is theres a lack of demand , the band really dont seem interested in promoting themselves at all and the advertising as it was in oasis doesnt seem to be there , this is part and parcel of being on your own label though . oasis when they get beack should sign to a major label who will promote them properly as beady eye shouldve , the album was well received but nobody is hearing anything from it, the singles are never promoted ,the advertising budgets aint there.. if you look at noel talking from experience in the uk the guy is never off tv when his album was out . i think youll see noel maybe press for america next time round aswell

This all really sucks. I hate when Beady Eye or Oasis gets in rough spots.

I didn't include NGHFB because he's got his stuff together.

My first thought too.  Paul's twitter indicates that Japan is still a go, so seems that the US is the only thing off the table.  It sucks if this is the case because it will mean no US anything until he gets this settled - and it will be expensive.  I remember reading at some point a quote where he said he paid a couple thousand a month towards Molly.  That is chump change compared to what a US court will make him pay - it will be based on his earnings.

This really pisses me off how many shows they have cancelled and let down fans yet again

I have Coachella tickets and I was excited for about two seconds last night -- maybe Beady Eye was off the bill because they were going to announce an Oasis gig this morning instead! -- but then I got realistic.

Now I'm just bummed.

I was wondering why there weren't any Northern California BE shows in April, because usually Coachella bands play up here as well. Maybe BE didn't get any good bookings and decided to pull the plug on the whole outing?

Lame. Maybe I'll sell my tickets.

I hate it when bands cancel shows for no reason or announce it at the last minute. It's so disrespectul towards the fans. It sucks for you gus who bought tickets just to see them. Hope you can get your money back

I'm not surprised at all. It never made any sense for Beady Eye to be playing 40 minutes at Coachella with no further supporting dates. It was always bizarre and they completely ran out it time to book venues this close to April. Hopefully they tour the USA in the summer.

And for those thinking Coachella was canceled for an Oasis reunion....... I want whatever you are smoking.
