Gotta share the moment in which I started thinking that something (about the Big O) was _maybe_ going on, but... didn't dare to get my hopes up. Well, right after "Council Skies" was released, on Noel Gallagher Facebook page there was that post, basically saying what's your favourite track on the album, you'd ask us to play. Me being me, replied (and I really do these things rarely): "Live Forever from Deluxe edition, only with another singer". Not that I didn't like Council Skies, but... as a little provocation, you know Well, soon I'd forgotten about that, I rarely go to FB anyways... And then, about a year after that, I got FB notification someone liking one of my posts... went to FB to check what was that about, and lo and behold there was a heart - from The Chief himself Didn's see that one coming it would've been more like him to slag me off or simply tell me to fuck off for not choosing one of his "regular" tracks from his latest album... not to mention "another singer" thing Can't remember the exact day, but it was sometime, say, between may and july this year. Now, that got me a little excited, but, as I said, not too much, as we all know what Big Brother is like... but I put that along with Liam's Half The World Away dedication to Noel I saw on YT, and Noel's earlier "I dare you to call me (...) c'mon you're bigger than that"... and let myself secretly think that something was going on. And then came 26.08.24 with that "mystery" announcement for 27.08.24... and the rest is history. Yeah, Noel definitely has a personal Facebook account called "Noel Gallagher Private" Fuck sake, I sent him £500 after he PM'd me needing money to complete recording for the new Oasis album in Lagos.

Hi this is Liam. Can you PayPal me £500, mate. I need special medicine for my voice or otherwise I can’t sing next year.

I really don't see any new members unless it's a better drummer than Chris Zak and Alan

Any new Oasis album better be good if it is at the expense of LGJS2. Hopefully just delayed rather than totally binned.

Mine is that LGJS was better than the last few Oasis albums so I'd rather hear LGJS2 than a regurgitation of Oasis mk2. On the other hand if they've refound their collective mojo and smash it out the park then bring it on. Time will tell.

If they regain the formula - Noel-written, Liam-sung, they’ll be totally fine.

Any new Oasis album better be good if it is at the expense of LGJS2. Hopefully just delayed rather than totally binned. LGJS was a fine album, but nothing great IMO. I'd much rather have any Oasis album over it, or NGHFB's, even most of Liam's solo stuff. But that's fandom for you, we all like different things. I know we are all hyped for a new Oasis album, and I'm with everyone here on that, but I do hope Oasis being back together means that Noel will finally delivery on the "Be Here Now" rethink album. I'm not a nay sayer of Be Here Now, but I do think that the album would be better off without all of the nonsense tracks in the mix, primarily adding only to the hiss. In many way, I would prefer a new mix go Be Here Now to more demos or live takes, because while there are some great demos out there, I never put them into my listening mix over the originals. I have a few demos in the mix for sure, but never in place of the album version. That said, I do feel that a rethink remix of BHN could have the potential to replace the original album for me, since they would be the same recordings, just no BS.

They both sounded hungry and John certainly had something to prove.
