General Comments
Oasis - Manchester Apollo (Ten years of noise and confusion tour) I've seen Oasis quite a few times, but I'd have to say this is definitely one of the best. Not used to seeing them in intimate venues as due to the fan base they only usually play staduims and indoor arenas. It was a short tour to celebrate ten years of the band and therefore it was always going to be a greatest hits set, although they were expected to play a couple of songs from the forthcoming album Heathen Chemistry. The gig was amazing from start to finish. Classics such as Columbia and Supersonic mixed with B-sides The Masterplan and Half the World Away and the Anthems such as Don't Look Back In Anger. This made from an amazing gig that lasted almost 2 hours, which is long for an Oasis gig!
