Oasis - Columbia (Saturday 10th August, 1996) 【Knebworth 1996】

[@Seminal_Ideas]

Primal. Moving. Incredible. My God what a band. The nineties soundtrack. My wife and I filled our house with this incredible music. She's passed now but when I hear this we're sharing a beer again.

Absolutely incredible, what a life to experience 🎉

[@Fran83114]

His voice is still badass, the last time I saw them was in 2007, he sounded good there to a certain extent. I'm going to see Oasis in July and I hope they don't let us all down. Badass band. 15 years since they split and 30 years since definitely maybe? They knew exactly what they were doing.. publicity.. I won't put them down for it as a lot do it, if it's a lie? No no you can't pull the guitar over my eyes

@@tronsnow4763 Yeah, it's more than likely related to his ADHD-esque nature, IMO...the guy simply hates standing/sitting around, doing nothing...this was particularly evident when he appeared on Graham Norton back in 2017, to promote "For What It's Worth": kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJO4Xmupbp2GgKc

Happy reunion guys cant w8 to see you's you's are the greatest band ever imo

[@artydemoine6080]

This is one of those songs that, for me at least, didn't particularly stand out on the record...but then I saw them do it live. It took on a life of its own in a live environment, it suddenly became transcendent...it became an "experience ". I was young, on ecstasy and the crowd was just vibrating with energy. I've seen many, many bands live and hearing them do this live the one and only time I saw them easily ranks top 5 concert experiences of my life. It's a frozen memory in time for me. And oddly, listening to it on their debut still doesn't stand out...it's a harmless song on a great album. But it takes on a whole other energy live...for me at least.

[@marklees206]

I agree.live its exeptional.prefer the white label demo than the def maybe version.

Amazing framing here in the outro. A disgruntled Liam, frustrated with his own performance, looks on as his brother Noel sings the closing lyrics with passion and then nails the outro guitar riff. Summed up how chaotic Oasis were back in the day. Glad to be seeing them at Wembley in 2025.

Lived in Codicote about a mile from Knebworth. Remember walking back home after this gig thinking this was probably as about as good as life got. I was right. Sometimes 'nostalgia' is a useful reminder that life doesn't always get better and that it's important to be able to identify those moments when they're occurring and enjoy them for what they are. Not just this gig, but the whole 90's vibe, friends, music and life in general. And most importantly, for me personally, my wife. Boy did I fuck up there.......
