The Oasis gig in Heaton Park is about a mile and a half away from where I live. So far we've had 15 minutes of Kasabian's bass and my son won't go to sleep.

10 years ago I would have been there, but now i'm hoping for a power failure.

Moan moan moan

If Kasabian sounds bad, its gonna get worse when the pub band take the stage. I can't see them giving their full back line to a support that would blow them off the stage...

dont worry it happens to us all...

the local pub who's beer garden is about 200ft from the end of our garden, has started up the cover bands on bank holiday weekends....

the other week i started to loose it as shite cover band after shite cover band started playing... i actually picked the phone up to complain and the wife gave me that look of "are you being serious???!!" i put the phone down slumped into deckchair and sulked...

Blimey. That's a £3,500,000 refund that they promised.

It went on until about 11:30 and I have to say that me and the missus went out to sing along in the street towards the end.

Maybe i'm not so miserable after all.

It's gonna piss it down for the Saturday and Sunday gigs though... will the crowd get their money back for that too?

Perhaps i'm developing some strange powers. Earlier on in the week I did wonder if the star of a 70s TV show was going to w@nk himslef to death in a wardrobe in Thailand... and now this happens as well.

The Grouch

I was a young boy that had big plans.
Now I'm just another shitty old man.
I don't have fun and I hate everything.
The world owes me, so **** you.

Glory days don't mean shit to me.
I drank a six pack of apathy.
Life's a bitch and so am I.
The world owes me, so **** you.

Wasted youth and a fistful of ideals.
I had a young and optimisitic point of view.

I've decomposed, yet my gut's getting fat.
Oh my god I'm turning out like my dad.
I'm always rude i've got a bad attitude.
The world owes me, so **** you.

The wife's a nag and the kid's ****ing up.
I don't have sex `cause i can't get it up.
I'm just a grouch sitting on the couch.
The world owes me, so **** you.

I know, the whole street was out. I even took a picture.

Not as Northern as a certain other STW regular who was stood outside the park with his dog on a string, listening for free.

I'm surprised no one's questioned your use of "becoming"!

I can't wait to see them on wed. However, Liams voice is shot to bits, so I'm expecting them to be awful

That'll be because the course went over the burial ground inside the old smallpox hospital (i'm telling the truth here).

This reminded me of a local walk we did on Tuesday night. It was too hot in the village hall for the local brass band to practise inside, so out they trooped onto the village green. It brought a smile to my lips.

Very funny thread btw.

Back to the OP. Just tried to buy 2 bottles of red for tonight, but the police have slapped a ban on Tesco selling me more than one bottle because of the concert.

Pah.

If you can't get a ticket, just sit in the shower in your muddy riding gear, ripping up fivers and drinking warm fizzy lager whilst listening to ELO, Status Quo and your least favourite Beatles tracks all at the same time.

If you have access to a gibbon, get it to shout at you incomprehensibly as well, just to get the full effect.

Saw the Pope at Heaton Park years ago and he had a better voice than Liam.

Most overated band of all time. Saw them at the GMEX years ago - they were awful.

No offence to ELO, Quo or the Beatles intended BTW. 😀
