Noel Gallagher on the Be Here Now Tour

[@nickbonnes]

I can listen to Noel talking about Oasis for hours. Anyway when he talks about a piece of bread I can listen for hours too...

[@b00ts4ndc4ts]

That's good because if you ever get the chance to meet him he loves to talk, and I mean that in the nicest possible way. Get a few beers down him and he can talk for ages.

[@User-jk8wq]

Noel can make any topic engaging and funny

[@HighlandMike325]

Great songs on that tour that were hardly heard of again. Fade In/Out, It's Getting Better Man, All Around The World. Thankyou Liam for doing Be Here Now regularly on tour.

[@wonderwall1994]

Great to see Noel talk so fondly about the Be Here Now tour. I've seen hundreds of his interviews and he's pretty much dismissed it in every single one. Looking forward to the full version!

[@svengalisounds4471]

It really was the greatest time in British music since the mid 70s, absolute madness. I'd give my left nut to be back in that era again as a teenager. Will never be repeated again

[@loganlockyer2651]

I love Be Here Now I genuinely think it’s a great album

[@bungle3912]

So do I. I like it when it was released and I still do now. It's too long, too many guitars, a couple of not great songs, but it's still a solid album and I listen to it a fair bit. Oasis made their worst music once Andy & Gem joined. Then it was just bland shite that wasn't Oasis.

[@robsol123]

My favourite oasis album no question x

[@fenhen]

It’s full of great songs but it’s not a great album. Slice an average of 1min from each song and then we’ll talk.

[@Nassim586]

Still waiting for an interview with both of Liam and Noel

[@bodychoke]

Don't hold your breath.

[@pretendamnesia]

Liam is incoherent and brainless in his interviews so itd be useless. You get more from Noel. Thats a fact.

[@duel5071]

@@pretendamnesia completely disagree. He's insightful. Listen better

[@bungle3912]

There's tons of interviews with them together?

[@scottishmau5]

I went to see oasis on the be here now tour back in Aberdeen in 97 what a show man

[@Temperjames]

I know this is 3yrs later... but ooofft. Widely regarded as one of their best EVER shows apparently. By the band themselves.... I was unfortunate enough to see em in Glasgow on that tour, the first night when they walked off after 10 songs... haha, then next night apparently played a blinder. Man... what a time

[@aunch3]

Noel is one of the great rock songwriters of all time

[@Lauren_MUFC16]

I’m so glad he enjoyed that tour, I saw them in 1998 when they were on that tour, it was amazing and still the best show I’ve ever been to.

[@CommentaryinSpace]

I'm sure someone's mentioned it already, but the Microdot channel revealed that they removed the Telephone Box not long before the album came out, so when they were deciding what should be on stage, the telephone box was still on the cover

[@Wolfdragon92584]

I think the sourness of that time period has ended, and Noel finally sees it not as just a cloudy haze, nor as a triumph, but simply as a product of its time. Exactly how the album is. It has its brilliance, but its image has been irreversibly damaged by overhype and the circumstances surrounding it.

[@mywhychromosome]

Yeah, I think this is pretty spot on--especially given that a lot of his initial bitterness towards it was fueled by A. The same critics who initially lauded it slowly going, "....wait, no, it's shit", and Noel sort of going "hmmmm, maybe it IS shit then" (which, considering his famous ego, is actually kind of interesting in and of itself--the opinions of others do matter after all!), and also B. That he got sober almost immediately after that period. That'll have anybody second guessing everything they've been up to in the immediate period beforehand until you don't know which way is up

[@almazzeynall6952]

He is one of a kind storyteller, could read an ABC book and still make it listenable

[@scotthasson5838]

agree..i could listen to him all day..good call mate

[@bubbanderson]

It's absolutely impossible to not like Noel .... cool as fuck. Proper Northern honesty... and a wicked sense of humour. Proper Gent.

[@sratus]

Not impossible

[@nathangarrick2855]

Imagine another tour.....

[@jackwyllie3243]

Radical, Junior maybe I just wanna fla, wanna live I dont wanna da

[@steveshorter]

I do on a weekly basis

[@JH-yz2sv]

@Radical, Junior liam can still bring it, is there any need to say the N word you dick if you want people to stop saying it how about you stop yourselves.

[@markythompson]

Hate comments like this. Just be glad it happened and there's loads of footage to watch rather than wish you had more. Ungrateful.

[@billymurray705]

Its easy if you try...

[@MattGreenDnB1]

Noel remembering the great moments of Oasis, well that makes a fucking change.

[@conorkennedy3304]

I saw these guys in Minneapolis on this tour and it was awesome. I think it was this tour.

[@fernandoamirSB]

We definitely need a Be Here Now tour release after knebworth, this year or in 5 years or someday.

[@FutureExitsMedia]

Saw them in 96 in Cork, supported by The Prodigy and The Bootleg Beatles. Unbelievable show. Not quite Be Here Now in terms of the stage setup but the performance was unreal.

[@KlausBluetner]

saw them in Berlin on that tour, great memories

[@dehydrateddecaf9025]

Come on Noel, bring Oasis back with Liam and relive those glorious days!

[@jasonwheeler4168]

Saw them at Exeter Westpoint in 1997 Peak oasis.

[@joeschofield9622]

Yes we know it was so fucking great now do it all again man

[@MadeOfStone02]

“You can’t have two keyboard players when your in the biggest band in the world cos one of them got to have a mate” Noel is the gift that keeps on giving

[@TheMusicalElitist]

You're* Yeah and you need to learn to spell.

[@propjoe1060]

That was a great, great time in music. I wish kids of today could get even a taste of how great a time that was in rock music.

[@mrs.albrecht894]

Noel ❤ I love this man, he's perfect 😊

[@md47bot]

Nice to see Noel like this

[@MedalionDS9]

Nostalgia...my late teen years

[@stannats2637]

The stage was something really cocaine

[@rcadenow7543]

amazing tour...soo many great songs.

[@Ziggy1Biggy]

2017 be here now 20th anniversary. oasis reunites.

[@winstonoboogie9186]

I need about four more hours of this...

[@SkywalkerUk]

I remember going to the NEC in Birmingham to the Be Here Now gig and the ring master coming on running around the stage tapping his watch as to say ‘do you know what time it is’ and then opening the phone box door. Was a good gig

[@alicowell71]

brilliant days! (the parts of the 90s I can remember that is)

[@danielhaslam5179]

Always wanted to know the story of the ringmaster dude. Could never figure out who he was or how he came to be the act before they came out. Fantastic story.

[@Guitarkid1991]

No one is better at telling funny stories or better yet making things funny, as Noel. The man is a genius!!

[@Apemopo]

"gotta hav two! the keyboard player's gotta have a mate."

[@Pazuzu82]

They were coming out to the song be here now high on coke. member liam walking round in circles like a zombie look it up its there, really good tunes.

[@isabelsalinas6748]

Noel is amazing! oh, and i beat hazed 😅

[@paulbedford5073]

I have an outtake photograph from the Be Here Now shoot and there genuinely is a telephone box submerged in the swimming pool. On the official cover Liam is blocking the cameras view of it.....but it is there. Noel mannnn, he knows nowt!! 😂

[@ChadLouisNewton]

Seen that photo on Instagram the other day, so can vouch for this.

[@bleep77]

Oasis is the last great rock band! The mid-90's was a great time in rock, and Oasis were at the forefront.

[@BLUEROOMEXITPRO]

bleep77 suede are a much better band with a stronger back Catalogue.

[@christiandegges1663]

BLUEROOMEXITPRO lol have you heard any Oasis B-sides?

[@np8820]

BLUEROOMEXITPRO Suede? No really, suede?

[@Tspetri]

BLUEROOMEXITPRO Oasis b-sides are massive

[@thegoodsgone1965]

Suede aren't even in my Top 10 THOUSAND.

[@themrbarrycallum]

Easily my favourite Noel interview

[@erikwsince1981]

Please do another tour! Where you play songs from Be Here Now. Its such a great album!

[@joer2513]

With this video, you can just tell he wants to do it all over again, he's spoke about it in Matt Morgan's podcast, how he misses having 50 odd trucks full of gear leaving a stadium each night, he'll do it eventually...

[@rickrennyoneill]

Next year

[@kolumbijcan]

the door opening guy had that full costume in prague, i was there november 1997

[@jamiesturrock8355]

I can honestly say that Be Here Now despite the critical reviews is the perfect conclusion. The band on top of the world almost autobiographical in a band that is enjoying fame and the fortune of a band at the top. Excessive, indulgent and in my opinion not long enough. Love this album and an apbum that continue to listen to it from beginning to end.

[@mj127871]

crazy tour, the best

[@49Ibanez]

This is awesome!!

[@darrenthomas7402]

Some people on here are being unfair.... Oasis were the biggest band in the world in 1996. From Oct 95' to Oct '96 they sold more albums than anyone else apart from Alanis Morrisette worldwide. Morning Glory was selling millions of copies in America and by the summer of '96 the album had sold over 4m copies in the US. Incidentally that is more than any album by any British band has sold with an album for 30 years. More than any Coldplay album, who is seen as being massive in America. So whatever anyone says Oasis were huge and this idea they weren't successful in America is pure ignorant bullshit.

[@mywhychromosome]

As an American around at the time, can confirm. I always bought and read imported British music mags to keep up on stuff, so I'd been into them from "Definitely Maybe", but once "Morning Glory" came out, they went from being my little cult band to where EVERYBODY had a copy, like it was a requirement. Interestingly, at the time, the song that was inescapable was "Don't Look Back In Anger", rather than "Wonderwall"

[@gazelliott2414]

Be here now is a classic

[@themaddaddy9515]

is there more this is gold ....

[@themaddaddy9515]

this is brilliant...

[@nicosanchez6917]

Menudo híbrido está hecho el gran Noel Gallagher

[@marcelosebastian333]

Its my favourite record from Oasis

[@ChadLouisNewton]

Love the emphasis on the word 'Hammered' at 1:26.

[@eloyyynas]

GMEX is, for me, Oasis at their peak. Liam is sweating it off, Noel doing his extended solos, drumms and rythm sound maaaaaassive. Best ever.

[@LyleRobertSmith2]

Oasis in Seattle!! Be Here Now. Help acoustic!!!

[@NoNameNo.5]

Glad I saw it

[@estebancomulet]

Imagine if the interviewer took it upon themself to take Noel or Liam's query of 'd'ya know what I mean?' every time they asked it. In his own right, Noel says it loads as well - and needlessly. Of course Liam fires it like bullets every 4 seconds. If you did a shot every time they asked it you'd be ossified in 2 minutes flat. Or less.

[@johnRFC1872]

“Fucking black dude...eh an amazing dude”😂😂

[@ChrisGower]

4:17 Proper Spinal Tap. Entire band just stood in there not moving because no one worked out who should open the door haha

[@osuyaolbap]

MAD FER IT

[@JoeAriminvm]

"Fackin black dude..... AN AMAZING DUDE" Good save

[@JayMacAttack]

The glory years!! Drugs, drugs and rock and roll.

[@john_the_boxer]

'Can't have one when you're the biggest band in the world, you gotta have 2. 'Cos the keyboard player's gotta have a mate!'

[@silviapaola9412]

when noel say yes,i'll be there...

[@shaunpenn8669]

Is he turning into Roy Hodgson lol get back together all ready, life's to short

[@gavinbirkett538]

what a man

[@guilhermefrimm100]

never seen this interview before... is there the full version? where is it from?

[@RNFKR]

fooking hell, cant wait

[@shune84]

this guy called bear was an amazing dude, it was his job to open the door to the phonebox.

[@sammybhoy5221]

Full interview please

[@SurviveTheHorror1]

Oasis is finally getting back together! Wooo

[@theundeniablegem]

Hear that one every fucking week. Next.

[@superfan4]

from what i learn from life, never get your hopes up for rumors. Just wait for a official announcement, if it happens or not

[@superfan4]

Victoria Powers lol uhh, ok then. ill tell you what then, if you reply back to me and send me a link to the official announcement of oasis getting back together, i'll make a public video apologizing to you and all that fun stuff.

[@winstonoboogie9186]

Not happening.

[@kathrynisaacs5159]

that escalated

[@LasseSrnes]

when was this recorded? Loved the Be Here Now tour.

[@rigsby1454]

'He ends up as a fucking ringmaster' haha

[@germanfrancescoli6388]

noel sos un dios!

[@jameswynne7905]

coooool

[@danielwarren3138]

I feel like they could (and SHOULD) be as ridiculously over the top in their reunion tour, this sounds absolutely hilarious

[@adriantino]

0 dislikes = Oasis

[@ListenUpMusic]

I love the sound of songs in album and tour the versions is very cool. Long solo of All aroud the world is brilhant. Just this! Olny this. The sound is piscodelic and cover album is too. This album is the bestou wall of sound you made in your life before The Amorphous Androgynous. Is brilhant sounds. You make better Barrett, Bowie and Lennon creative sounds.

[@bungle3912]

I remember the guy opening the phone box - he was dressed as a chauffer, not a ringmaster or a clown! I remember seeing them and thinking 'what is this shit?'. I'm sure there's footage of it on KZbin.

[@stevem4306]

Any link to the rest of the interview?

[@becausewemust]

Was the 'Bear', Denton of Arsenal?

[@juliocarloz7839]

Noel and Liam are a only people. This is a fact!

[@hoggybhoy1967]

i liked the album but its the last one i liked for while

[@istisel]

'couse keyboard players got to have a mate.' said the man who now has three keyboard players in his band.

[@scottmcdonald1607]

Very clever man

[@yyoyoma]

Biblical

[@Ian-ee8fs]

I love Oasis, and I went to see them twice on this tour, Wembley Arena and Earls Court. But they've never ever been the biggest band in the world

[@Ian-ee8fs]

@Hugh Jones Not sure you can consider anyone big these days unless you crack America and they didn't. I would say U2

[@Ian-ee8fs]

@Finlay McLaren SHUT MY FACE ?? any need for that. You think 2m copies in the states is a lot, thats nothing. Are you an idiot

[@Ian-ee8fs]

@Finlay McLaren Sorry my reply took so long you bored me to sleep

[@Ian-ee8fs]

@Finlay McLaren Mate go and play with someone else I'm not interested. You're a typical keyboard warrior who's hard as nails sat at home typing away. Go on, have your last say. Pathetic

[@GergelAni]

Oh, they were! 1996-1997. The most famous band, the best-selling band. Which sums it up. In that Era they were the Gods.

[@benevesk]

GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[@imememine1]

I thought Noel got sober a long time ago...why does he look/seem so out of it? Checking out Supersonic in Chicago on the 26th...can't wait!!

[@endezeichengrimm]

Why is this in 360p?

[@thebadradio5340]

Noel knows how to tell a fuckin story!

[@laurikuli6796]

Oasis should have swapped the worse songs of be here now with the great b-sides from 94-96 and would have had an excellent 3rd album

[@nicoleprokop1598]

Where can we find this whole interview?

[@slipamo4309]

ong kong

[@Ethan-yz6tj]

oh i wonder if they where the biggest band in the world

[@paustjohn]
