Fantastic work, Louise! My favourite ones are on your list as well such as Chicago Metro 1994, den Bosch 1997, Budokan 1998, Chicago 1998 and Dublin 1997 - known as "Noel Gets To The Point". Keep your great work up!

Cardiff 96 is amazing, should have been released in full at the time. I'll have to give Den Bosch a listen. Don't have many Be Here Now tour bootlegs. I find the sound on that tour is horrible.

I only attended one of the gigs on your list. Philadelphia 1999. The first gig of the “new” lineup. I was only 18 and super excited to see the new members. I speculated for weeks for setlist. Maybe a new song. I figured they’d play 40ish Min since they were one of the final acts on the bill. I was disappointed in the length. 5 songs. Barely 30 min. Every other act before them and after played longer. But it is what it is. On the car ride home from the gig the Philadelphia Radio station that sponsored the festival gig, Y100, had a special treat for listeners. Noel recorded a live acoustic rendition of “Who Feels Love?”. That fired me up. I think at the time it was the 2nd thing ever heard from the album. I think I heard an early leak of FITB just prior. Either way it was super early for new material. Id also highly suggest two more shows. Wetlands in 1994 and Hammerstein Ballroom in 1997. Great sounding bootlegs of a band in top form.

Never been a fan of '96 Cardiff. Kicking off with The Swamp Song and Acquiesce is just weak, it's an Oasis gig but there's no Rock 'N' Roll Star, and although there would be Slide Away to save the day, it's part of Noel's acoustic set. Well, thanks for nothing.
My favourites from this era are Glastonbury '95 (WHAT FOR!!), '98 São Paulo (Noel again with an incredibly long and boring acoustic set but the rawness!!) and '99 Philadelphia (the vocals!!).

Minor correction: MTV Unplugged was at the Royal Festival Hall and not the Royal Albert Hall. They're a few miles apart.

I always loved the swamp song kickoff. Maine Road was the same 1-2 song combo punch. Fan of it.

That's surely one of the best things about the MG tour. They were so massive they could kick off gigs with two B-sides (one of which was an instrumental). Genuinely an incredible era. Plus, the Glasto 95 gig starts with both of those songs.

I'll do with Maine Road and G-MEX. Knebworth was average.

The Swamp Song and Acquiesce are B-sides for a reason and should've never been set openers for Oasis. The former carries on for way too long and the latter becomes repetitive when Liam sings only one verse twice. There were countless better options than those two. And yes, the Glasto '95 performance kicks off with them as well, but at least two verses of Acquiesce are sung there and Liam's vocals are miles better than how good they were any time in '96. The setlist is better too than what they used a year later on the same tour.

Think they're an absolutely brilliant way to open a gig and wish I'd been there to see it.

Noel's solo on Champagne Supernova at Budokan 98 blows my tiny mind every single time I hear it, and I've watched that bootleg a hell of a lot.

Oasis played 3 nights at Nippon Budokan in 1998. It was Noel's wish to playing at the same venue where The Beatles played in 1966. The most known bootleg of these 3 nights by Oasis is "3 Nights at Judo Arena". 3rd gig (20th February 1998) was broadcast on TV in Japan back in time (soundboard) and the legendary 11 minutes long Champagne Supernova with Noel's incredibly outro was played at this very night. www.discogs.com/Oasis-Three-Nights-In-A-Judo-Arena/release/6514183There's also a bootleg called "The Last Night of Judo Arena" which contains Budokan 3rd night and other live recordings. oasisfromfuckuoka.blogspot.com/search/label/Tour%20%2F%20Be%20Here%20Now%20TourThis is absolutely one of my all time Oasis bootlegs.

Fantastic blog post Louise!
Checking the bootleg archive the following links are dead.

Can anyone kindly help me out by re-upping them?
Thanks!
