Look.
I don’t hate Oasis.
I don’t.
I think they’ve got some great songs.
Wonderwall, Don’t Look Back In Anger, Champagne Supernova, all great tunes, but I was always more a RATM or SOAD kinda guy over and above Oasis so have found the wall to wall coverage of their reunion a tad perplexing.

I think Gen Xers have taken over most of the content platforms of mainstream media now and for some reason their nostalgia is driving the media coverage, which is fine I suppose, but sweet Jesus can’t we use this obvious cultural power to do something a tad more important than give Liam Gallagher $400million quid???
I’m not looking back in anger, I’m looking back bemused.
I agree. But they were truly overrated to make it worse. Obviously they have just run out of cash.
Meanwhile, the planet burns
Bring back not personal riddicule, but the corporate exploit ri9ddicule.
If the punters pay to see them, the band will always reunite.
The Stones still sell out stadiums, unsure why, but who can blame them making a fortune if they have the fans buying tickets.
Oasis is the same, like Martyn they had a few good tunes but I was never a fan, the brothers are so dysfunctional it will never last but they will make millions doing it.
That’s the thing with GenX. They would rather give Liam Lout that 400 million. How else would you get that selfie ” Look, I was there”. Same with the Swifties. There are people on the dole and child support who went to Sydney to see her.
Got actual proof that someone on the Dole went to Sydney to see Taylor Swift? Cause it sounds like absolute bullshit.
Really cultural power?
Or are you just watching what the PR budget clipping the ticket on GBP 400 can do. It’s Swift level.
Wall to wall coverage of insane crap like Oasis reunions are just more nails in the coffin of MSM and it’s slide into irrelevancy.
The whole music ‘industry’ with it’s bullshit ‘rights’ and ‘royalties’ scam is sliding into that wonder wall of oblivion; when the world wakes up to the fact that it is funding wars and colonialism on an unforseen scale the revulsion will be mind bending. In Afghanistan women are forbidden from singing as well as showing their faces. Yet in the west it has become obligatory to flaunt everything. Do we hear ‘celebrities’ calling this out?
One, so far.
