Not a good one, but after my last Oasis gig on 22nd January 2009 I lost my coat and had to go back to home in f**king January. Besides that, it was 2 brilliant days, seeing the lads on barrier with 2 great friends of mine.

My first Oasis gig was 2005, the first night at the Etihad. Got off the train and was queueing up to get something at one of the shops in Piccadilly station. Two blokes picked up on my mate's Oasis t-shirt and asked if we were going to the gig. Turns out they were roadies/security for the band and told us how there'd been a big fight a coupe of weeks before in Milan - Liam had thrown a wobbler in the hotel because his toast was burnt and the whole band had a massive falling out over it.
In hindsight they were probably full of shit but was a cool story at the time.

I have a mad one.
Went to City of Manchester 2005.
About two years later I was in the States on an internship and was room-mates with a Welsh bloke on the same internship. I met him for the first time when we moved in.
About six months into it, his Mrs is going mental saying “you already knew GlastoEls already!”. He’s like, I literally met him in this flat here in the US.
She emails a picture from the Manchester Oasis gig. The Welsh lad had taken a group photo of his mates and I’m standing right next to them in the crowd, looking at the camera!

Not a good one, but after my last Oasis gig on 22nd January 2009 I lost my coat and had to go back to home in f**king January. Besides that, it was 2 brilliant days, seeing the lads on barrier with 2 great friends of mine. Here's a great memory of my first Oasis gig. I saw the band for the first time at Summer Sonic festival in Japan in August 2005. I had a holiday plan for Japan anyway and Oasis announced to play at the festival as a headliner in Tokyo on Sunday. I asked my friend over there to buy me tickets. Just one week before I left to Tokyo, Oasis announced European tour in Autumn, so I could buy my tickets for Amsterdam gig in November. Festival opened at 11 AM and my friend and I went to the stadium where Oasis would play in evening. We arrived at the gate and had to get the wristband first. We got something to eat and went to sit. An American band called Yellow Card were playing. Not very much cup of my tea. Then The Ordinary Boys. My friend loved them and we went down to the field (general admission area). It was afternoon and sun was burning. Not crowded at all. Later in the afternoon Kasabian came on stage, still not very crowded. Next one was Weezer. It got more crowdy. When Weezer were finished, there was no room around us anymore and we couldn't even move our feets. Nobody was allowed to entre the GM. The sun went down and the entire stadium was waiting for Oasis to come on stage. We waited, waited, waited...people on the seats started to make some wave and shout like "Oasis! Oasis!". They were supposed to be on stage by now, but nothing happened so far. After 45 minutues they finally came on stage. It was due to some techinical issue, so we were told. Spending the whole day under the burning sun just to see your favourite band for the fist time. Everyone on this forum know how that feel. I got my face, arms and chest burnt by sun. I got emotional when the piano intro of DLBIA came. When Oasis finished playing, a big firework in the evening sky. What a great day was that. |

I remember almost getting robbed on a Paris Metro Train just before Liam's Paris gig last year. Wouldn't say it was a fun experience but it was an experience nevertheless!

Long story short...Was at the Familiar To Millions gig in London, pre-mobile phones. Lost all my mates (we had travelled down from Scotland) Lost a shoe crowdsurfing. Then got thrown out of the stadium!!
I Paid £10 off a roadie to get back in, 1 shoe under my arm. Stole a massive timeout banner. Saw the rest of the gig. Found my mates and astonishingly my other shoe!
I have soo many stories, mostly from down the front! Great days.
