Oasis set to star in Easter spectacular -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Noel Gallagher RELIGION and rock have never mixed that well, but the BBC is hoping to change all that with a spectacular live televised event in Manchester this Easter. Manchester Passion will be a huge public spectacle, with streets closed to traffic as a Good Friday procession makes its way through the city centre with the promise of music by major Manchester bands being involved in the parade behind a huge crucifix. It's the BBC's follow-up to award-winning public opera event Flashmob that caused a stir in London and Sheffield, and will be produced by the same TV team. TV bosses hope "major artists" will be involved in the contemporary retelling of the last few hours in the life of Jesus - and are targeting the likes of Oasis, New Order, The Hollies and ex-members of 10CC. Spectacle "It should be an amazing public spectacle," predicts outgoing BBC3 controller Stuart Murphy. "We plan to tell the story of the crucifixion in a way that is a lot more modern. It will involve lots of crowds and an enormous cross - and, hopefully, a lot of big names." The event, to be screened live on Good Friday evening, will mix the words of the Bible with versions of popular songs by Manchester bands from the last 30 years - perhaps the likes of Stone Roses' classic I Am The Ressurrection would be fitting. Explained a BBC spokeswoman: "The music will be given a vibrant new twist and is performed by the characters in the drama, accompanied by a string band and well-known local musicians. It takes its inspiration from the way Bach and other composers fused music and the Passion story." The digital channel won a Golden Rose award for Flashmob - The Opera, which staged a contemporary opera on the busy concourse at London's Paddington station in October 2004, including a 62-piece orchestra, choir of singing policemen and chorus of football fans. A second event was staged last April at the Meadowhall shopping centre in Sheffield, involving professional performers, local schoolchildren and other members of the community. The public will be encouraged to join the Manchester procession, which will pass through several streets before ending up in Albert Square. BBC Commissioning Editor for Arts, Music and Religion Adam Kemp says: "We are excited by the possibility of introducing a new audience to the rich history of the Passion Plays. "We're looking forward to involving the people of Manchester in this moving live event and hopefully encouraging them to look on familiar songs with fresh eyes." source: Manchesteronline also from http://www.live4ever.us/newsroom.html

Back in fine form -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FIERCE loyalty from their fans and matured professionalism from Oasis overcame early technical hiccups during the band's triumphant return to Sydney last night. Manchester brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher and their musical cohorts delivered a stirring set which was more about communal rapture than rock star posturing. But Liam's hand-on-crotch stance, which he maintained for the length of the concert, was a tad perplexing - as was the tambourine-on-head balancing act. The band opened with a run of songs from their latest album, Don't Believe The Truth, including Turn Up The Sun and Lyla, during which Liam's microphone appeared not to be working. After the sound problems, the crowd went from simply enjoying the show to a full scream-along session as Oasis dipped into early hits, including Wonderwall, Champagne Supernova and Live Forever. The energy did not cease during the brief wait for an encore before Noel delivered the night's highlight. Cheekily dedicating the song to the Australian cricket, rugby and soccer teams, he started the anthemic Don't Look Back In Anger and the capacity crowd sang the roof off. Oasis play a second gig at the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney tonight. source: news.com.au from http://www.live4ever.us/newsroom.html

Rock's bad boys find oasis of calm. True -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOEL Gallagher looked more Johnny Cash than bad boy of rock in Sydney yesterday. Dressed in black, the 38-year-old Oasis guitarist had plenty of lip on the eve of their third Australian tour, but he was playing down the Manchester band's notoriety. Gallagher said the band was more about the music than making headlines. "I think we were always recognised for our music, first and foremost," he said. "There may have been a few years where the records weren't well received and we got more headlines for some of the things that went on." Noel and his younger brother Liam have been a fixture on the front pages almost since they released their debut album, Definitely Maybe, in 1994. Their Australian debut seven years ago was a low point, with Liam arrested for headbutting a fan. "We weren't in a very good place as a group," Gallagher said of that first visit. Oasis made amends with Australian fans four years later with an extensive tour that included some small-venue performances and not so much as a finger waved in anger. This time the band is here on the back of their recent, critically acclaimed album, Don't Believe the Truth, an album "our kid" Liam had a hand in writing. The sibling rivalry is long gone, it seems. "Our fallouts tend to be more public because we're quite forthright and we don't bullshit people," Gallagher said. "I'm sure it's the same for Coldplay. I'm sure they don't always get on with each other, but if somebody asks us a question we're quite up-front about it. "There are only two people in the world who are not fascinated by our relationship, and that's me and him. "Nobody gives a f..k about it any more. It's not really relevant to what we do. Whatever we might say about each other in the press, it's all done with a very large pinch of salt." That's not to say the elder brother doesn't regret some of the things he says. "I'll be reading articles for the next two weeks in Australia going, 'That doesn't look good in print'. But, f..k it, that's the way I am." Oasis have had a string of hits, including Live Forever, Rock'n'Roll Star and Don't Look Back in Anger. Many of those will be on parade when the tour begins in Brisbane tonight. "This time it will be special," Gallagher said. "I'll be great, I can guarantee you that." source: theaustralian.news.com.au taken from http://www.live4ever.us/newsroom.html

Brotherly 'love' in Brisbane -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE Gallagher brothers are at it again. Arriving in Brisbane yesterday, the front men of Brit-rockers Oasis were at their infamous brawling best. "We fell out," Liam said, as brother Noel sat sullenly waiting for their tour bus. "I don't think he wants to be photographed with me. We're not getting along too well. I don't even think he'll get on the bus with me." The band's guitarist and chief songwriter, Noel, refused to join singer Liam and the rest of the band and travelled on his own to the Brisbane Entertainment Centre for the first show in their national tour. Brawling and Brisbane are not a new concept for Oasis. In 1998, Liam head-butted and broke a fan's nose outside the Quay West Hotel. "If you're asking about that lad the last time I was here, if anyone starts it again, they'll get the f------ing same," Liam said, although he happily chatted to fans at the airport. "They're the best, there is no one else like them," Jared Kranz, 22, of Karana Downs in Brisbane, said. "It was so easy to talk to them, it's brilliant." The soccer-loving Liam paid tribute to the late George Best and chatted with the Queensland Roar team, who were on the same flight from Sydney. Last night Oasis played to 6500 fans, storming through their back catalogue and their latest album, Don't Believe the Truth. source: Queensland Sunday Mail AU taken from http://www.live4ever.us/newsroom.html
