:(

 

I wonder what made them fall out so badly?

I'm anxious to read an in depth play-by-play account of exactly what happened.

 

A video would be epic.

I wonder if anyone on here saw. :stunned:

Its funny that Amy Mcdonald's twitter is the only source available as to what may have gone on...

As I said earlier - An Oasis week should be planned. Coldplay is lourve I'm looking in your direction since I generally cannot be arsed to publicise it.

OK I was being a bit harsh there. So glad Victor isn't here these past couple of days to spout his usual shit.

True, but I "don't believe" it will last................................... :rolleyes:

don't forget the quotation marks, people might not know who you're talking about otherwise

^Oh, I think people will start to cotton on soon enough.:rolleyes:

This is kind of sad. Oasis badly wanted to be the Beatles. And they were the Beatles, badly.

 

Second-rate Beatles tribute act, we barely knew thee. Although they might carry on. Do you think they'll bother writing a new album if they do, or will they release the same album under a new title, yet again?

Where were you when Oasis broke up?

 

Watching Bill Bailey doing his stuff.

just getting out of class.

shopping. :cry:

I feel like this won't last, and they'll be back together.

 

But for now, goodbye Oasis.

 

 

I dug out my old avi and user title since everyone else seems to be honoring them too.

I was at dinner with my friends and I got a text from another friend about it.

It is surprising somewhat, but I hope Noel ends up doing solo stuff. He's very inspiring to me. Great singer and brilliant songwriter...

 

I really don't see how Oasis can go on as a band w/o Noel.

^indeed...

Where were you when Oasis broke up?

 

 

Fury as Oasis leave fans out of pocket after splitting (definitely, maybe)

Furious Oasis fans are demanding refunds after the band split amid a flurry of punches in the midst of their European tour.

Founding brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher traded blows in a vicious fight - in which Liam smashed Noel's guitar - just before they were due on stage at a festival in Paris on Friday night.

Noel then said the Rock en Seine gig was off and it was the end of Oasis, after making £52million from selling 50million records.

 

 

 

Rage: Liam Gallagher 'fought like a man possessed' in tussle with Noel, right

 

 

A backstage witness said of the fight: 'Liam was goading Noel constantly and then the two just snapped. There were proper punches and Liam smashed up one of Noel's guitars. Liam was like a man possessed. He was swearing constantly and was really angry.

'Medical staff were called, along with security. Noel got out of the ground as quickly as he could. This was a truly vicious fight - quite horrible.'

Scottish singer Amy Macdonald, who was also on the bill, wrote on her Twitter page: 'Oasis cancelled with one minute to stage time! Liam smashed Noel's guitar, huuuge fight!'

Noel said in a statement yesterday: 'The level of verbal and violent intimidation towards me, my family, friends and comrades has become intolerable.

'And the lack of support and understanding from my management and band mates has left me with no other option than to get me cape and seek pastures new.'

Now fans wanting refunds in France, Germany and Italy may be left out of pocket, with promoters insisting concerts will go ahead with acts like Kasabian and The Kooks replacing Oasis.

Rob Hart, 19, from Nottingham, spent more than £350 on a ticket, Eurostar and hotel package.

'A few pounds back won't compensate for missing Oasis,' he said. 'What happened was an absolute disgrace.'

Years of rancour between Mancunians Noel, 42, and Liam, 36, had been coming to the boil for weeks. Last week singer Liam said they travel on separate tour buses, no longer speak and only see each other on stage.

Last weekend the band pulled out of the V Festival in Chelmsford which they were meant to headline.

They have split before, though, first in 1994 when Liam sang different words to Live Forever, lampooning his brother.

Songwriter Noel once said of Liam: 'It's a good thing we don't live in the U.S. where guns are more accessible because I'd have blown his head off by now. The problem is that I can't fire him because me Ma would kill me.'

On the latest split he added: 'Dearly beloved, it is with a heavy heart and a sad face that I say this to you: As of Friday, I have been forced to leave the Manchester rock 'n' roll pop group Oasis.

'I would like firstly to offer my apologies to them kids in Paris who'd paid money and waited all day to see us only to be let down AGAIN by the band.

'Apologies are probably not enough, I know, but I'm afraid it's all I've got.

'While I'm on the subject, I'd like to say to the good people of V Festival that experienced the same thing: again, I can only apologise - although I don't know why, it was nothing to do with me.

'I was match fit and ready to be brilliant. Alas, other people in the group weren't up to it.

'I would like to thank all the Oasis fans all over the world. The last 18 years have been truly, truly amazing. A dream come true. I take with me glorious memories.

'Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a family and a football team to indulge.

'I'll see you somewhere down the road. It's been a ******* pleasure.'

 

 

COMMENT: I'm glad it's all over at last

 

By Oasis biographer PAOLO HEWITT

 

So it's over: The partnership between brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher, which was one of the most acrimonious but creative in rock music history, has finally fractured.

From Oasis's beginnings in the early Nineties, they suffered a titanic clash of egos.

Noel believed his brilliant songs were building their global fan base. Liam was sure it was his cult laddish appeal that brought success.

And even now, 15 years after the first album Definitely Maybe, they are still arguing about it.

So, where did it all go wrong? Well, as early as 1997, the cracks were starting to show.

The sense of adventure and fun, the freshness, the sense of wonder at the travel, the fans, the fame, the money and the accolades had gone.

Oasis had already been around the world and no longer travelled light. They couldn't move without 64 trucks of kit and played to tens of thousands of fans nightly. They made the mistake of becoming a brand, not a band.

As they did so, their fan base changed. Oasis gigs were filled with lads pretending to be Liam. Ultimately, they outnumbered those who were there just for the music.

And the music suffered. Noel, the songwriting genius, had written his first material in a council house in North-West England while dreaming of a big house, a Rolls-Royce and a blonde wife. Once he'd acquired all three, he started to wonder what he should write about next.

As their biographer and someone who has accompanied Oasis on several tours, I honestly wish that they had split up ten years ago or more. But artistic integrity clashed with commerce and they kept going.

Oasis became a formula, albeit a successful one, and Noel was writing by numbers, but his songs lacked the intensity of those from the early days.

I'm sad they've split but I think it is a good thing. Noel and Liam will make amazing solo music and parting will enable each to recapture their creativity.
