What was not to like about one of the biggest publicity machines in the world?
'Definately Maybe' - fastest selling debut album in British history (at the time)
'(Whats the Story) Morning Glory?' - easily one of the greatest rock albums of all time let alone of its era.
And everything that followed, the highs and lows of a band that had two warring brothers, one of them being a contemporary songwriting genius, changing members and playing to millions of people all over the world. Everyone knows Oasis and it cannot, whether you like the early, the middle, the new or all of it, be denied that they released some fucking awesome music.
So like some (and unlike others) I was quite sad to read a statement from Noel the other day:
"It's with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight. People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer."
Some of you won't care. Maybe even Liam wont. They've replaced all the original members except themselves, so who knows what he might do. I personally think you'll find that you can't replace a Gallagher in Oasis (especially the important one).
I was lucky enough to see Oasis 3 times, including front and centre against the fence. These memories will live on for a long time, especially the solo acoustic version of 'Wonderwall' by Noel at the Enmore in 2002. Sigh. Heres hoping this is just another bump in the road that Oasis are on, theres an apology and a reconciliation.. or an intervention instead (see what I did there?) but for now I guess it's adios to a historically significant band.

do you think this could be another blink 182 situation?
bit of a break up will drive up the prices for the reunion hehe
either way im sure theyll make piece at some point further on down the track, brotherly love will prevail
maybe whiteboydancefloor could mediate aka willie nelson?
I enjoy Wonderwall and Champagne... Sorry that you quit Oasis.
Keep up in writing music! :)
they were still together?
They'll be back together again. They love the money too much to not get over their tantrums.
