today's The Day: afternoon glory

Marco Zanella | Sunday, May 13, 2012 | City story - morning glory, News |

MANCHESTER - Manchester City 3 stars were only decorative, without a meaning... today (after the game vs QPR Queens Park Rangers), they'll get one... as the 2 leagues won, plus this one, the first since 1967-68 (oh since Noel Gallagher was born... what a jinx... today you lose, we finally defeated you). Now he even said he "believes in his brothers" ahahaha ...who both said he's a liar and a "fucking fake". Yeah we believe them. And he "believes in his wife"... who hates his music. Yeah we believe her.

Oasis

Bonehead to play on Beady Eye next album.
Now 1300 as Sunday 13, bad luck defeated.

Milanello - top video: Mark Van Bommel from Holland crying for leaving Milan... poor boy :(

...and he only stayed 1 year and a half, but already loved "the family".

his nickname: the General... General Dread, lol.

New player: Tevez or Balotelli.

more stuff to add soon
(not to be thrown at cows)

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

..... somewhere down the line, YOU are Italian too. Watch your jealous tongue before saying anything against Italy

..... live in Milan. He was singing great, he also said: have a nice holiday, you deserve it :). During the whole concert, Superman Liam was wearing the Italian flag, never seen this. He even came off the stage near the people to touch him. There were even girls telling me to give him their bra ^_^ and to stay on the front row they even wanted to pay me, lol. Some even wanted to take a photo with me :D

In this video: photographers as in the video of Four Letter Word :)

INTERNATIONAL TROPHIES: AC Milan 18, Barcelona 17, Real Madrid 15, Liverpool 11, Juventus & Ajax 10, Inter Milan 9, Bayern Munich 8, Porto & Manchester scum United 7, Valencia (no Champions Leagues) 6, Chelsea & Anderlecht & Atletico Madrid (no C.L.) 5, Feyenoord & Parma (no C.L.) 4, Nottingham Forest (! 2 C.L.) & Dynamo Kyiv & Sevilla & Borussia Dortmund & Tottenham (no C.L.) 3, Psv Eindhoven & Benfica & Hamburg & Zenit Sankt-Peterburg & Red Star Belgrade & Steaua Bucharest & Ifk Goteborg & Borussia M. & Mechelen & Real Zaragoza & Aberdeen & Lazio & Galatasaray & Aston Villa & Leeds & Arsenal (no C.L.) 2, Manchester City & Fiorentina & Napoli & Roma & Sampdoria & Celtic & Rangers & Ipswich Town & Ferencvarosi & Dinamo Zagreb & Slovan Bratislava & Cska Moskva & Sachtar Shakhtar Donetsk & Olympique Marseille & Paris Saint-Germain (no C.L.) 1, etc. Milan city leading with 27 trophies.

..... fake City fan Noel Gallagher the jinx:

- supports England 2018 -> Russia wins

- the other year, Noel: "justice will be done with West Ham relegated" -> West Ham relegated

- Liam goes to the stadium and City wins the first cup in 35 years, Noel wasn't there

- Noel was @ 3 City games @ stadium in 2011/12 -> 3 defeats

- City speaks about Noel with Balotelli for one week -> 2 other defeats, United +8 points

- but at the end Liam goes to the stadium and City wins the first league in 44 years (shirt that Liam had presented)

- Noel song What a life for England @ Euro 2012 -> England loses

- says England will beat Italy on penalties -> Italy dominates and wins on penalties

- blames Mancini then says Mancini is a magician -> City out of the Champions League, unbelievable last position, and Europa League

- etc.

- bets on Russell Brand short marriage -> they split quickly

- presents Manchester City shirt 2013 -> ... -> won nothing

- was @ FA Cup final vs Wigan and said City could win with 8 men and one netting a hat-trick... -> City ridiculously lost

..... I carry madness everywhere I go! 5:22 Italian flag :) (Turn up the sun, by Andy, @ City of Manchester stadium)

..... London->Milan, November 2009, with Milan legend Paolo Maldini. Follow us & Liam on Twitter & YouTube

..... love the welcome ahahahaha with a Milan Lambretta behind... waiting for a PG shop in Milan.

In the same days: new AC Milan shop in Milan

..... the centre of the world. You can find a high definition version on miamilan.com

Milan Expo 2015, the new zone where Oasis had to perform their last concert in history... before the "break" of 5 years... strange coincidence, 2015... we're all part of a Masterplan... (the music is the anthem of North Italy, capital city: Milan, of course, titled "Va pensiero - sull'ali dorate", "Go, thought - on golden wings", by Verdi).

A new Milan part with strange skyscrapers is gonna be called 'City Life'.

In his 'Tales From The Middle Of Nowhere', Noel refers to Italy as the bands’ 'spiritual home' and anyone who has been to an Oasis gig in Italy will know why. It’s fitting that Oasis have chosen Milan to stage the final show...but Noel left the band again, for the 3rd time, 2 days before

(from the official site )

Milan, not Rome. Against Rome:

"Domani, be' cos'è domani? Lasciamo che Roma si dissolva nel Tevere! E che il grande impero crolli! Questo è il momento; i regni sono fatti d'argilla".

(Oasis, What's the story, Mondadori)

..... send them victorious, happy and glorious

"L'Italia è la casa spirituale degli Oasis.

I ragazzi italiani sono come me, molto passionali. 4 elementi li contraddistinguono: il calcio, la musica, la famiglia e l'amore per l'eleganza. I miei amici italiani sono dei fighi, indossano vestiti e scarpe stupende, sciarpe favolose, occhiali da sole anche di notte e donne bellissime al loro fianco. Beh, sono considerato una figura santa in Italia. E' Milano... l'Italia è grande amico, cazzo se mi piace andarci".

(Noel Gallagher, Oasis)

Italy is Oasis spiritual home.

Italian boys are like me, very passionate. 4 elements mark them: football, music, family and love for elegance. My Italian friends are cool, they wear wonderful clothes and shoes, fabulous scarves, sunglasses even at night and beautiful women by their side. Well, I'm considered quite a holy figure in Italy, It's Milan... Italy's great man, I fucking love going there.

"Milano è il miglior fottuto pubblico, e lo dico davvero!".

(toccandosi il cuore più volte)

(Liam Gallagher, Oasis)

Milan is the best fucking crowd, and I really mean it!

(touching his heart more times)

"Milano è una città bellissima. Molta gente pagherebbe per stare qui. Non vado quasi mai a fare shopping, quello che mi piace di Milano è la gente".

(David Beckham, Ac Milan, Oasis friend)

Milan is a beautiful city. Many people would pay for staying here. I almost never go shopping, what I like in Milan is the people.

"We get chatting to Marco who was around for Paolo Nutini arriving and had given him a quick hand shake then sloped off, (you know how cool guys like to play it), he is really a Brit Indie lad at heart trapped inside the body of an Italian guy, his taste in music is fabulous. The tempo was troppo caldo (too hot weather), the Duomo is breathtaking to say the least. Milano women are ridiculously stylish and fabulously slim, gorgeous beings. The chef shaped my pizza into a love heart. Italian men are so smooth!" (Jacq)

The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.

(Henry Wadsworth Longfellow)

"I've got the pre-emption over anyone proud boastin' music royalties about you :). When you told me to be not so good, I thought you were just humble. Now, on the contrary, I think you're a famous incognito singer, determined to cheer up the world with your voice, for free". (Selene)

"nice jacket"

(Liam Gallagher embracing me)

"I live my life in the City!!!!!!!!!!

I live my life for the stars that shine, people say it's just a waste of time..."

(Rock 'n' roll star)

..... here you can see Noel the bastard keeping a low volume for Liam's microphone as always, and very high for the instruments.

2009. I was at 3 Oasis gigs in 1 month, even climbing the Italian Alps, highest European mountains, and arriving first in Switzerland, my last Oasis gig, seen it on the front row in front of Noel winking an eye at me ;) (and Glasvegas did the same) playing as in room for me and two Swiss birds lol, the "veline" :))

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars. And in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes 'Awww!'".
(Jack Kerouac)

mad fer it !!!

..... Rockin' chair , my favourite song ever (written with the Real People).
Video with a final surprise at the end...........
I played this song till my fingers bled.
The shape of England is not so different from Italy one.
Notice the images and the turtle as my turtle Alberta in "I'm older than I wish to be" :) (and the turtle then is also on Noel plectrum, he played with it, I played with it).
And yes, that pier in Weston-super-Mare was burnt. And Oasis are over now (definitely maybe).
For going around we were still using a tour bus, and as it was our first time there, we had a big surprise when a bus full of British people overtook us, all of them smiling and waving their hands but suddenly they turned and showed us their arses ahahaha

..... The meaning of soul (live in Milan @ Alcatraz) - This one's not for Marco :) but I dedicate it to Melissa, a girl with heart problems I took out from gig mayhem. Escape from Alcatraz ghghgh It used to be the song on English tv, for Premier League Sky Sports ad. "...I'm a different breed, I'm outta your league, I'm 10 outta 10 alright... All rise, I see the love in your eyes, if it's alright then I'll be your light"

..... me parka, me scarf, me sideburns, me fucking everything. Everytime you put one, you just feel like you're fucking going to a war... And obviously buy it you fuckers! ahahaha Me English blue navy Pretty Green scarf, a must-have: a soft, lightweight polka dot scarf made from 100% cotton and expertly hand-printed by Italy’s leading scarf producer

"La musica non ha mai spostato niente, neanche negli anni '60, ai tempi del Vietnam. Il rock incide nel look, negli atteggiamenti, ma non nella politica. Forse conoscendolo Lennon era un cretino, non ci sarei andato d'accordo e l'avrei odiato. La gente parla troppo della sua vita, del pacifismo e così via, quello che mi interessa sono solo le sue canzoni.

E se qualcuno organizza una marcia contro la guerra, io preferisco andare al parco con mia figlia".

(Noel Gallagher, Oasis)

=
Music never moved anything, not even in the '60s, at Vietnam times. Rock influences look, attitudes, but not politics. Maybe knowing him Lennon was an idiot, I wouldn't got on well with him and would have hated him. People speak too much of his life, pacifism, and so on, I'm interested only in his songs.

And if anybody organizes a march against war, I prefer going to the park with my daughter.

..... vote for Noel Prime Minister: 1) a good politician is a rich one, 2) more police on the streets

People of Freedom conservative party, as in England now

Seguo gli Oasis dall'inizio, dal 1994 (da quando c'è lo zio Silvio in politica ahaha), il Britpop iniziava a conquistare il mondo, e in Inghilterra noi 16enni-17enni compravamo cd con una certa canzone appena uscita che diceva proprio: Mister Sifter sold me songs when I was just 16...

2000, Twin Towers down there... before September 11... on the single "Sunday morning call" there was New York with a fallen glass... New York City skyline from the rooftop of the Rockefeller Center. The album's title was taken from the words made famous by Sir Isaac Newton: "If I can see further than anyone else, it is only because I am standing on the shoulders of giants". Noel saw the quote on the side of a £2 coin while in a pub and liked it so much he thought it would be a suitable name for the new album. He then wrote the name on the side of a cigarette packet while drunk. When he awoke in the morning, he realised he had written "Standing on the Shoulder of Giants", not "shoulders"
