did Oasis fail in America, as Noel says? No, of course


Oasis had FOUR (of seven cds) top5 albums in the States, platinum records, about 9 million albums sold, even Be Here Now was 2nd and voted album of the year (and Noel Gallagher said that album was a mistake... Liam&the fans love it), Rose Bowl and Madison Square Garden sold out for 3 consecutive nights, in record time for a British group, US bands as the Killers named Oasis as their inspiration to start a band, etc. I remember the film Upside Down even showed a map of USA in an UK flag and "Oasis" written. Conquered. If Noel was a bit humble, instead of Liam, should blame his songwriting going poor.

besides, Britpop had many anti-American characteristics (see the film Live Forever, that is a bit too political), and those results are great.

Oasis failing in America because of Liam in '96 as Noel says? "because Liam is a twat" as Noel fans say? Not only Noel left the band in the USA in 1994, plus abandoned in 2000 and 2009, he also walked out of the same '96 tour only two weeks later (because of a minor disgreement Liam & Bonehead had over a leather jacket).
I bet the 28th position reached by Noel's album in the US is still Liam's fault eh...


one to wake up a bit after Noel's gig. The Prodigy feat. Liam Gallagher "Shoot down"
