You had to pull an example from 1997 to prove your point

I love the fact people all of a sudden have a huge problem with his voice, if there was still Oasis you wouldn't be making a huge deal... the fact people have to pick their fave parent is what's happening now, I say I can still enjoy both, why can't anyone else?

 

[brianjones]

i think the only one picking their favorite parent is you

please.. we're not all teenagers

also where's your examples of liam's still having a good voice since you apparently keep up with beady eye on youtube

 

[Medalion]

I don't have to prove myself to anyone

I can enjoy it, if you can't, that is your loss

I don't have to pick a fave parent, I listen to both equally

Oh boy.. shit just got real.

Noel launches a massive counter suit against Liam detailing over 15 years of Liam shenanigans.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/mobile/topc...liam-in-new-oasis-libel-feud-115875-23577024/

I wish I could call fake, but they've posted the actual court documents that Noel filed on Nov. 1st of this year.

There isn't a whole lot new in the documents that most of us hadn't heard before, except 2 things that Noel is claiming. He says Liam would leave abusive and insulting messages on Sara's (Noel's wife) mobile phone. Noel also said that they did in fact have a row over Pretty Green (which Liam denied), but Noel claims that the discussions over Pretty Green advertising were with Liam's intermediaries and not Liam himself. Noel claims that when he said no way in hell would Oasis be advertising Pretty Green, Liam began to become abusive to him on the DOYS tour, and they began to travel separately.

Noel Gallagher's vevo channel posted this less than 20 minute long music video, basically stringing together all of Noel's epic music videos called "Ride the Tiger". The video starts with what sounds to be an alternate take of "If I Had A Gun"

I didn't see the video on his channel yet, but it's up on youtube.
Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - Dream On


It's corny but fun. : )

 

[Wiktor]

tbh even if liam's vocals are up one day and down the next you can't tell me it's anywhere near as good as it used to be:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-g1OGxUBa8

i love him, but he's losing it unfortunately. where as noel's still got it.

To be honest though, he's dropping from far higher level than Noel ever was, but yeah Liam's voice has degraded. Still, it does seem to have improved somewhat now compared to last Oasis days.

 

[bigwinnerx]

My wife is Sitting here and watching One Tree Hill and the last show ended with what seems to be the entirety of IIHAG along with a CD plug at the end. Good US exposure....to teen girls and 32 year old women, but, still...

 

[Typographenia]

You take what you can get!

Besides, I'm not opposed to more people listening to Noel, regardless of demographic. : )

 

[Meier]

Recent ads for Kiefer Sutherland's new show Touch also used NGHFB in the commercials. They played Everybody's on the Run for a solid 1-2 minutes in one of the lengthy trailer type ads as well as a smaller portion during a shorter version if. I was freaking out!

 

[Meier]

So the show last night was absolutely amazing! We were about 5-6 people back from the stage which made it even better. My girlfriend and I met because of oasis so after dating for quite a long time (nearly 7 years..she was always anti-marriage but I decided enough was enough so to speak), I surprised her with a proposal during Talk Tonight. She said yes.

I'll have more photos and whatnot once we're back in the US on Saturday but here are two videos I took:

I'm so jealous, Meier, oh my god. And of course, congratulations! I wish you two the very best.

 

[Leeroy3101]

This album is really growing on me.

I Wanna Live in a Dream (In My Record Machine) is probably my favorite track but many others are just as good. Every track on this album outdoes everything that Liam put together with Beady eye.

I hope there's a US tour with a good amount of tour dates. I'd love to see Noel live.

Worth a bump. Was in DC last night for first show of latest Americas tour. Row G in the middle. Great show. Setlist was basically the same as Philly except Whatever instead of Wonderwall.

I have no voice today!

 

[Leeroy3101]

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - Shoot A Hole Into The Sun

I like this, a lot. The transition at 1:16 is fantastic. Although, I was hoping this would actually be a song instead of the psychedelic stuff it is.

 

[Meier]

Oops, never did post more photos! Here are a couple my fiancee took..

And a few from the NME Awards where the lighting was definitely not conducive to getting decent shots from afar..

And two of Pulp for good measure:

I might be remembering wrong, but I believe I remember her simply being girlfriend not too long ago. Congrats to you both!


Great photos too. Man, I need to go see him one day.
That shirt is rad as heck.

 

[bucknuticus]

Just got back from the columbus show. Was great, i was about 8 rows from the stage! Although im super disappointed he didnt play wonderwall. MONA the opening bad was pretty good as well. Crowd was super into it tonight, he was particularly chatty with this group up front.

Hehe, you're right.. I proposed during Talk Tonight at the show! Hence the ring picture, haha.

I bought a shirt as well but it's a little tight.. doh! I'm not sure if European sizes are slightly smaller or if I'm just getting too fat or what.

 

[Typographenia]

You're one smooth son of a gun, Meier. Dang, during talk tonight and everything, haha.

 

[bucknuticus]

Here's a shitty video from my phone I took of Dont look back in anger, sounds actually not bad on it though.

Noel Gallagher did a good 1 hour interview with journalist Mark Lawson for the BBC (only viewable in the UK)

[brochiller]

Wow, I never knew Noel had such a large GAF following. Count me as a part of that. Love the HFB album but I'm even more excited to see what the AA stuff sounds like.

 

[Meier]

Noel was on All Things Considered yesterday, there's a 14 minute audio clip at the link:

"When you're in a band and there's five of you, you have to accommodate five people in every song," Gallagher says. "It was great to free up everything. The simple songs became more simple, and the more elaborate ones became more elaborate.

"I had a very clear idea that I wanted it to sound cinematic, but at the same time intimate and direct," he adds. "When I listen back, I wanted every verse to be like a scene in a film. I've had the best time making this record."

[Meier]

Haha, my friend saw him in Chicago tonight and he had the NME Godlike Genius award on top of amp. That's hilarious!

 

[bill0527]

Just got back from the show in Indianapolis.

Had a great time. I sat floor left 8th row. Got some great pics and video but can't be bothered right now cuz I'm in a hotel room about to fuck my wife.

Noel sounded great along with the rest of the band.

Funniest quip of the night...some random guy in the crowd yells out "Stay out of the taxis" (referencing the Oasis tour when they were here 10 years ago and Noel's taxi driver wrecked, Noel ended up in the hospital fucked up pretty good and had to cancel several dates)

Noel: Yeah I had a car crash in this town many years ago. I wonder what happened to that driver?
Crowd: *small laughter*
Noel: Did they put him in the electric chair?
Crowd: *laughs*
Noel: I'd like to give that fucker some American justice.

Not sure if posted but he's performing on the iTunes Live London 2012 thing this month!

Sept 12th!

Grab the iPhone/iPad app and enjoy!

 

[Medalion]

I feel kinda torn about supporting this blu-ray... not even Oasis got a world-wide blu-ray release. I want them to reform, and not give Noel a reason to stay a solo artist.

I know that sounds selfish but I'm just being honest, while his solo album is good, it's not something I listen to that much these days.

That's a pipe dream, while Noel is making great music in the real world. Even if they got back together it would last a month at tops. You know this is the truth.

I'm sure they would fight and leave in a huff as always, but they did that a lot back in the early days of Oasis as well... hoping they could last at least...2 months?

Noel is once again going on record dismissing any possibility of an Oasis reunion and went as far as to say that not even if it meant saving all the starving children in the world, and how no one in Oasis gave a shit about the fans and how that wouldn't start to apply even now

http://audioboo.fm/boos/953528-noel-gallagher-on-liam-s-comments-that-oasis-could-reform

And yet there are still Noel fanboys defending him and still making Liam the villain... fanboyism to the bitter end.

But I will give him the fact, Liam suing Noel earlier would definitely squash that chance for at least well longer than 2015 reunion

 

[Medalion]

Bump just in case, I know there are a few Oasis fans on GAF

I agree with Noel, what would they have to gain by getting back together? Their popularity was in decline overall despite a brief resurgence in public interest when DBTT came out. A reunion this early after breaking up comes off as a desperate attempt at reliving their "Glory" days, pun intended.

 

[Medalion]

And that is why he continues to play his Oasis songs with this new band, despite he won't call them his band yet.

He does not get to speak of how the other band members feel about the fans... and to callously say he wouldn't form the band even if a bunch of people, children, depended on it, never because he hates his former bandmates that much and doing stuff for fans was never anywhere in his equation.

I agree, they couldn't retop themselves, but to say it in the ways that he did was just cold and unprofessional.

 

[iNvid02]

yeah its over, fuck

 

[goomba]

When is his second solo album coming?

 

[Medalion]

Really. Even if he wouldn't reform Oasis, you ignore everything else he said and the way he said it.

And apparently that 2nd album is not coming out, at least not the one supposedly with Amorphous Androgynous.
