oasisblues: if you gave me a fresh carnation...

if you gave me a fresh carnation...

Marco Zanella | Tuesday, May 11, 2010 | Oasis story - morning glory |

...I would only cross its tender petals,

with me you have no escape,

and at the same time there'll be nowhere to settle...

some other Oasis history again, "the making of".

10,000 carnations were imported from Holland for this shoot, three thousand of which were dyed blue. Based on a story told by Ringo Starr of how he quit The Beatles during a recording session returning later to find his drum kit smothered in flowers

Noel’s guitars and Orange - Marshall amplifiers

the artwork for the single Don't look back in anger

Cum on feel the noize (Slade cover, Maine Road 1996)

Step out

Underneath the sky

I love the drums by Alan in this tune

Noel Gallagher solo gigography, and Low Lying Turds tour dates

fashion star with music stars

the city of Milano & England have the same flag. AC Milan, best club in history, was founded by a group of English&Italians. Milan was appointed as the 1.city of world fashion. Pretty Green started in Milan, 11 March 2009, launched for my birthday 9 June, winner of the Drapers award as best brand. Beady Eye (first gig in Milan in 2000) were later conceived when Liam was here for PG. Oasisblues is on the official Oasis site, and is visited by Liam too. Marco since 1994 biggest fan, born and always lived in Milan historic centre

song of the summer 2012 & 2011

..... Noel the leech, the looter, the parasite.

added: Hi-heel sneakers, Je so' pazzo, Summer in the city, With a little help from my friends, Imagine, Carry that weight, Homesick (should have added Stone Roses too)

..... to be honest, it's not me the biggest Oasis fan, but we finally found out who's the BIGGEST one :) :) (she's my English teacher)

..... Oasis without Noel, the Boys in the Bubble (wanna be free)

..... Milano mod Lambretta and Roller girls

..... Oasis' Hung in a bad place, by Gem

. "I love Noel, but I'm not blind and Marco is RIGHT. After 40+ years of walking to and fro upon the Earth (look THAT reference up, if you dare), Noel is a master manipulator of people, particularly Liam and apparently also the fans and the media. There's not a category for LIAR of the Year, or he'd win that. Of course he will win Hero of the Year and Liam Villain of the Year (when it's REALLY the other way around). Beady Eye could also win the Worst Band Award from the Noel Musical Express." (fortunately, it didn't happen but he won the hilarious extra award "Godlike Genius", without people could vote for it...)

. “Noel’s got a lot of stories, but how many of them are actually true is another matter. Few of them are rooted in truth.”

(Paul Weller, the Modfather)

. "That's the thing that makes me want to throw up. I just look at Noel now and think, 'You're a fucking fake'."

(Liam)

media darling Noel Gallagher telling lies to promote his album:

- Oasis split because of Liam
- Oasis failed in the Usa (so they didn't have 4 top5 albums, sold out gigs in record times for a British band, etc.)
- Oasis failed in the Usa because of Liam... (then Noel admitted they were successful)
- Oasis split because of Pretty Green
- he's not playing songs that were sung by Liam (then played Supersonic, Wonderwall, Whatever, It's good to be free, etc.)
- Oasis split because of lack of support from management (sounds like he's not sure about the reason... in fact he then admitted 2 times that he doesn't know why...)
- he's playing only 3 Oasis songs (then played 10)
- Oasis split because of lack of support from band members, Andy, Gem, Chris
- he's publishing his 2nd album in 2012, before the tour
- his new songs are new and all written by him (his imaginary Gem doesn't think so...)
- his shoes are new
- Noel is friends with Gem
- Liam bullied the band
- he's not going to speak during the gigs
- he doesn't want people to speak to him (then he had whole conversations)
- Oasis didn't split because it was years he wanted to go solo (he wanted since 2000 album failing)

- he won't leave Oasis
- Sara encouraged the solo career after Oasis split (not before eh...)
- repeated a thousand times: there will be no Oasis reunion
- there will be no Oasis reunion, not even for starving children
- Oasis split because Liam was drunk in August 2009 (Noel avoided the court thanks to his mummy)

- there will be the Oasis reunion
- he was not going to text Liam for Christmas
- the work was harder in Oasis
- the work is harder now
- nobody in Oasis cared about the fans
- nobody was listening to Oasis in the last years
- his album is back in the top 10
- he hates having pictures of him taken (he's vain as fuck)

- @ Olympics they asked him to mime so he didn't sing (they wouldn't have PAID him, and they know he can't sing. Beady Eye didn't mime)

- repeated a thousand times: the High Flying Birds disband November 2012 (they're still annoying around)

- Liam did not put down a vocal for Record Machine and Stop the clocks... the band members don't think so

- Noel is too busy talking with ex Oasis bandmates
- much more

Noel Gallagher's top 10 worst bullshit:

1. "not even if all the starving children in the world depended on it"
2. wishing to "catch AIDS and die"
3. insulting his own fans (but he's right about this)
4. telling lies, long list
5. insulting everybody, long list
6. leaving Oasis 3 times +excuses for not reforming
7. the man who is still paying the most money for copying songs
8. bigger than the Beatles, John Lennon was an idiot
9. losing his British identity
10. the man without a style
