Go Solo Gallaghers Says Ian Brown

Traditionally Mancunian monkey man Ian Brown has suggested that Noel and Liam Gallagher should go solo following the slip of Oasis a few weeks ago. Both Noel and Liam have written songs on the last few Oasis albums, and Liam has improved his song writing dramatically since his early attempts, such as “Little James” on “Standing on the Shoulder of Giants”.

Brown said:

“I would say go solo, I can heartily recommend it. It’s a fine way to be.”

He suggested that it was a shame that the brothers are scrapping like toddlers even though they are grown men, which I agree is a bit sad as they should really have learnt to work together by now.

The former Stone Roses front man then added:

“I always loved Oasis because when they came out, they did express that they loved us (The Stone Roses) and they saw that we did it and they thought they could do it too.

“We’re lads like they are, and that inspired them. That means a lot to me.”

Music Fashion – Leather Jackets and Scarves

Now that summer is disappearing into the distance more rapidly than Usain Bolt down the 100m track, now is the time to sort out your winter wardrobe. And nothing says style like a leather jacket and scarf combo. I am a massive fan of leather jackets and scarves and have recently aquired a new jacket for my birthday from All Saints. Its a rugged, creased number that looks slightly battered rather than brand new and I’ve got a selection of scarves to match the outfit.

Such a combination has been made popular by bands such as Oasis, The Stereophonics, Kings of Leon and other similar rock and roll artists and groups. Really, you can’t go wrong with this look. I’ve owned second hand leather jackets as well as a range of newer ones but I seriously reckon that you can’t have enough. There are loads of shops online which cater for the younger style or for the older classic look, and winter is the perfect time to show that you know how to look cool in the cold.

Oasis Will Live Forever

I’m from Manchester and grew up in the Brit Pop era of the 1990s where bands like Oasis, Blur, Suede and Pulp were at the top of the charts week in week out. I must say I’m very sad to see the end of Oasis having bought all their albums and been to see them over 15 times throughout their tours of the UK in Manchester, Birmingham, Nottingham, London, Sheffield and other venues throughout the UK. The scallywags from Burnage will definitely live forever with their and have written more anthms than any other band of the same era, including Wonderwall, Don’t Look Back in Anger, and more recently Songbird, Stop Crying Your Heart Out to name but a few. The band were infamous for their image, wearing leather jackets, baggy pants, long hair and their look defined the era and still lives on in Manchester and many other rock and roll cities througout the UK and worldwide.

I still think there will be a comeback, or tours in the future. I can see Noel Gallagher very much going alone as Paul Weller did once he left his bands, and Liam has also started pencilling songs and has talked about Oasis continuing without Noel. I can’t see that, but I do think that a reunion will be on the cards, perhaps not next year, but if you look at the demand for recent tickets on the last tour it would be foolish to rule it out.

Get back together boys! Rock and Roll needs you and won’t be the same without you.
