I am going, and yes I’m one of the suckers that bought a VIP ticket. Want to make sure this is an experience I’ll never forget.

Will definitely report back!
Does anybody know what time to arrive to catch Noel for the soundcheck and when he can possibly sign stuff?

My girlfriend and I are going as well. It'll be her first time going to an Oasis-related show. I don't know if it's due to me getting older, or the fact I've seen Noel's show so many times, but I'm not that excited about it. More excited for Swensons to be honest. Haha.

Thoughts about the show:
Overall it was great! Best live experience and setlist out of the 3 solo NG tours so far. The new band makes a big difference...Sharrock adds another energy to the songs that was missing previously, and Gem obviously knows all these songs inside and out.
Noel’s between song banter was excellent as usual. I found it hilarious he couldn’t quite pronounce the word “Akron”.
Best song on the night was easily Go Let it Out...most people went crazy for that. However Holy Mountain, Heat of the Moment, Little by Little (surprisingly) and Wonderwall were also highlights.
As for the bad...the “Enhanced Experience” VIP tickets were indeed shit. Definitely not worth your time or money. The buffet food (and food options) was poor and substandard, the merchandise options were nothing special, the exhibits were slapped together, and the “commemorative pen and notebook” was a fucking joke. The amount they charged for that was highway robbery and I feel like a sucker for buying it. Really the only use I got out of it was the 2 free drinks and a (close to) front row seat for the concert.
I am also quite disappointed I did not get a chance to meet Noel, but after the show I did meet Gem!! He gave me one of his guitar picks, got a picture with him, signed setlist, and I got to chat for about a minute or two. He’s a real dude, and a kind and generous man.

Thoughts about the show: Overall it was great! Best live experience and setlist out of the 3 solo NG tours so far. I actually feel completely opposite. For me, it was the poorest show I've been to out of all 3 tours. I'm not sure if that's due to me not being excited to see the show or from the show itself. I think theater seating really contributed to it, along with playing 4 or 5 WBTM? songs to start off the night. I don't think there was a single person around me singing those songs, and it really sucked the energy out the room (from where I was sitting). The sound and mix in the balcony was also atrocious. I've never sat in the balcony, nor been to the venue, so I'm not sure what the problem was, but it was horrible. Half the time I heard the backup singers over Noel. The performances of the songs themselves were great as always, and I'll never get tired of singing Don't Look Back in Anger with a room full of strangers. And the fact that Noel played so many obscure songs was fucking incredible. I'd never in my life expect to hear All You Need is Love or Go Let It Out live. So that was super cool. |

Yeah see I was in the 3rd row right in front, so everyone around me knew all the words. That’s probably why I had a vastly different experience. I’m sure if I was in the balcony I would have hated it. Also being up and front, I was surprised at just how strong Noel’s vocals were all night. I had heard his voice was thinning a bit in past shows, but from where I was sitting his vocals sounded pretty damn close to album quality from beginning to end. |
