Banda starts their meeting tour soon and it is not absurd to wait for the inclusion of all these songs in the repertoire of the shows
Fans of Oasis They will need to wait until July 4 to find out which songs were chosen to compose the repertoire of the meeting tour. On this date, the Band of the Brothers Liam (voice) and Noel Gallagher (Guitar) performs the first concert of the excursion in Cardiff, Wales. The route foresees tickets for the United Kingdom and Ireland, North America, Asia, Oceania and South America – with two dates in Brazil, November 22 and 23, ending the itinerary.
Supposed setlists – which, it seems, are false – have been circulating in the networks in recent months. Liam Gallagher even manifested about one of them, saying it was not real, but did not escape so much.
There are, in any case, a series of songs that would represent a “safe bet” in terms of choice of repertoire. These are those that appear among the most played of the group’s career, which ended activities in 2009.
According to the database Setlist.fmthe most performed music of Oasis’s trajectory is “Cigarettes & Alcohol”: 646 times in all. The track served as fourth and last single from the group’s debut album, Definery Maybe (1994).
Second is “Don’t Look Back In Anger”first track of Oasis to have main vocals of Noel Gallagher. She was promoted as fifth and penultimate single from the album (What’s the story) Morning Glory? (1995), the second of the catalog.
The top 10, by the way, is dominated by songs that make up the group’s first two albums. Not only because they are the oldest, but also for impressive sales: it is estimated that Definery Maybe have over 15 million copies sold worldwide, while (What’s the story) Morning Glory? It exceeds 22 million units globally.
Only two songs on the list were not released on the albums in question. However, their recordings occurred in the same period.
Eighth place is “Acquiesce”track registered in the sessions of (What’s the story) Morning Glory? and used as B side of the single “Some Might Say”but not included in the album itself. Her repercussion among fans was so good that she was among the winners of a group made by the group about songs that should be made available in the B-Sides collection The Masterplan (1998).
In the tenth position there is a cover: “I Am The Walrus”original Beatles. Oasis’s rereading was recorded during the Sethy Maybe sessions and released on the B side of the compact “Cigarettes & Alcohol” – Precisely the most remembered by the band on their setlists.
