“Ciao bella! The Gallaghers land in Italy with chaos, charm, and colossal chords!” Back in the tail end of 1997, Oasis were deep in the whirlwind of their Be Here Now world tour – bigger than ever, bolder than ever, and possibly more coked-up than ever (we’re just sayin’… 😅). On November 16th, they hit […]

4th of July, 2014 – while the Americans were busy waving flags and setting off fireworks, we in Blighty were summoning the gods of heavy music at Knebworth Park, as Sonisphere Festival returned in glorious, riotous style. And for three perfect days, everything else in the world ceased to matter — because the only things […]
So, you’ve caught the bug. You went to your first gig, phone in hand, and somewhere between the smoke machines and the second chorus, you fell in love… not just with the band, but with capturing those moments. The sweat. The strobes. That confetti cannon blast at 11pm. 💥 Now you’re hooked, and your phone […]

Well slap my tambourine and call me Bonehead – it’s actually happening. Oasis have only gone and reunited, and where did they choose to rip the plaster off?

What do you get when you mix Wonderwall, an opportunistic fan, and a frontman with zero time for shenanigans? Absolute mayhem, mun.

Cardiff just witnessed something biblical.
