Knebworth in 96 was the peak. It was a time where people and technology where in a state of equilibrium. Despite their talent and drive, it's debatable if divine intervention played a part, as a few years north or south, who knows what would of been. It must feel strange for artist when they reach the top. I can imagine it's an empty feeling knowing you can't play the next big gig because they've done it all. And they did so in a very short period. After that it must turn into a business or a corporate machine with departments and offices. The very thing they despise. Lennon in an interview said, the people have enough of the establishment. So they knock it down then rebuild, only to become the establishment.
Even now I get goosebumps watching There and Then. Maine Road was something else. And I remember listening to Knebworth on the radio (as did the rest of the country!) and discussing it with my mates at school the next day
@@Gennovense There may be some nostalgia in my original statement as I was a teenager in the 90's, but it was pre-internet and mobile phones (both were around but still in their infancy compared to today's world where you can't live without both). Something changed in society in general around 2003-2005. Was it the internet and smart phones becoming more prevalent? Perhaps, but having experienced life pre and post internet (I'll be the last generation who will have experienced both) I can assure you there was more social cohesion and everyone was happier pre-mainstream internet. I wish I could go back...
@@StuartH2709 I know, I was born in the late nineties but because of Oasis, movies and stuff I understand perfectly what you say. I wish I was born before, we have our things but still...not that cool.
@@GennovenseNo. You are lucky enough if you play guitar and listen nice music. It’s a general saying from people born in 80’s, early 90’s. Now it’s never been better time to learn to play guitar. It was painful in 80’s to be able to play everything by ear when songs are so complicated. Now you got everything. 80’s 90’s had their difficulties, that you wouldn’t wanna be there growing up as well… What you live is the moment, and enjoy the presence. Maybe light it up, and get a nice guitar and keep on.
I saw Oasis headline Reading and I was ready to hate them. But OMG they blew me away. The greatest bands are those who are great live. Can we also have a shoutout for the Epiphone Noel is playing in one of the clips? I have a mint condition 84 Sheraton MIJ.
I know this channel is American, to all the people in the USA, I know from reading youtube comments over the years that loads of Americans hate oasis and most of them only know Wonderwall, but in the UK they were massive like Beatles level massive in the 90s, it’s a shame they didn’t create the same hysteria and memories to go with it for Americans cuz I think the good ole USA missed out on summat pretty special 😎🙌🇬🇧🎶 (it’ll probably never be seen again either) 🌅🎶
I know Noel has been more than clear that there is no good reason for a reunion. But! Just imagine how BIG it would be !!!!!! Just imagine it for a second, Noel!!!
I was set to see them in Atlanta ‘96 and they broke up literally the night before. Liam bought a house and Noel got on a plane back to England. I was blown away. It was on the radio that morning and all over school cause folks knew I was going. Fk how’s it been that long ago?!
A different post code haha but that’s that’s what its like i was in a little band playing up and down the country in places like the Zanzibar in Liverpool and Brixton jam in London then started doing little fezzys on massive stages first time is madness its so fkn huge on them it sounds so different it takes a min to get used to
In the Supersonic film Noel states they were offered more gigs at Knebworth but for the first time (owing to how big they'd become and having to process it) backed away from doing so, the promoters later told them they could have done 7 nights with the amount of people that tried to get tickets and missed.
@@alexanderwood3465 They def should have done 3. The fact Robbie Williams did 3 in 2003(?) is a bit of a shitter...I've nothing against Rob, but Oasis should definitely be known for the bigger shows.
90s was better. Born in 82, was 13 when Oasis released Definitely Maybe. Then they were off to the races. What a time to be alive. Then the E buzz started. Haha!
What a world we live in were in twenty years we go from the biggest band in the world being Oasis to Taylor Swift (and Taylor is actually much bigger as far as world wide ticket sale go) 😊🤷🏽♂️
Agreed m8,But 20 years ago there were no smartphones,Facebook,Twitter,Streaming services and all that nonsense,It was word of mouth or top of the pops,Now anyone remotely half decent can sell out stadiums and massive outdoor gigs👍👍
It's not Taylor Swift's fault that rock music went into decline. Blame the shitty rock bands. I am pretty sure Taylor Swift likes Oasis, Liam's single 'For What it's Worth' was on her spotify. There has always been pop stars, even when Oasis were at their peak
Sorry but Morning Glory going 5 times platinum in the US should've been seen as a HUGE success for them but they never got praised for it. Same with Be Here Now going in at #2 in US, but cos it missed out on #1 by a few hundred copies that's all, they have 'never been big in America'.... What nonsense. Totally unfair
@@SirValeous Yeah they were, I just thought Noel meant he saw them at Knebworth that year. I probably misunderstood and he meant he just saw them live in '88.
Pink Floyd played a short set at Knebworth in 1990. It was some festival that also featured Robert Plant and Paul McCartney playing short sets. I can remember it being a bit crap when it was shown on the box.
One of their biggest shows was Knebworth Park. He wears parkas. He is being interviewed on a parquetry-laid floor. Is it just me, or does Noel enjoy his park life? AAAAAAHHHHHHH
Floyd lol , shite. Oasis in the 90s were like the Beatles in the 60s. Huge and people loved them . And oasis got the youth into the Beatles with there influence
Noel, I was at Knebworth and I can tell you now, as a punter it was utter crap. Also, your career now, this constant dirge of boring interviews is also crap
@@michaelball7830 It's not an argument of who's better or best. For that time, Oasis were as big as any band. And that's a notable achievement for a rock band. Now whether you can admit it, I am not sure. But it happened. Personally, I love LZ. I love Oasis for different reasons, different kind of music. It's OK to appreciate both
@@michaelball7830I'm not comparing Oasis to Zep but the point is Oasis' Knebworth gigs were record breaking at the time. It's purely about that and them in a capsule of time.
so oasis were shite in areana gig settings but if they play clubs they shine the most.. thats kinda lame, music should be able to be performed anywhere.
Most bands are better in smaller venues; it’s about connection with your audience and the audience with each other. There are bands also whose music suits stadiums more - the U2’s, Pink Floyd’s and Queen’s of this world.
Apart from being one of the most recognised songwriters in music history, who's b sides are better than most bands released works. Yeh, what's noel gallagher done, every songwriter has their period, his current music is perfectly fine but not many people have made the contribution to music that Noel Gallagher has, there's a handful of people who have done that. His songs defined an era in british music, that's an absolutely massive achievement, you don't need to be consistently relevant to have made history.

Oooops fallen down a Noel Gallagher doing interviews rabbit hole again!
Me too
Ha. Always!
He's a great talker for sure! Funny too
You my friend are not alone, happens to us all
His interviews are never boring
I'm glad I grew up in the 90s with all the greatness that came with it
Me too
17 now, I hope I’ll get to say I enjoyed this era in 30 years.
No chance, the west has been falling apart since 2008 banking crisis.
Even the early 00's where absolutely amazing
Nostalgia at its finest.
Knebworth in 96 was the peak. It was a time where people and technology where in a state of equilibrium.

Lennon in an interview said, the people have enough of the establishment. So they knock it down then rebuild, only to become the establishment.
Absolutely the very best times to be a teenager or a young lad having it as large as possible. What a time we had. Awesome. ✌️👍✌️
Then the internet came along and everything became miserable.
Even now I get goosebumps watching There and Then. Maine Road was something else.
And I remember listening to Knebworth on the radio (as did the rest of the country!) and discussing it with my mates at school the next day
1995/1996/1997. What a time to be alive. So glad I was a teenager growing up in the 90's... Must be awful to be growing up these days.
i grew up in the 2010' and it sucked, you were very lucky.

@@StuartH2709it changed with smartphones in 2008-2009, before that 90’s and early 2000’s were pretty much the same
What a great interview! Noel is so uplifting when he speaks about where he came from to where he is now.
I remember taping the Knebworth gig of Radio 1, and shared around my year at school. They never got better than that.
I still have my tape with Jo Whiley talking through it.
They were better at Maine Road in my opinion
@@JordanSM1997absolutely
Couldn't imagine. Rock n roll forever
Man that's the first time I've seen that Knebworth poster, that's an insane lineup
Gotta love Noel !😎
So glad they recorded the Maine Road gig "There and Then" is as he said... Oasis at their best.
The monitors comment at the end made me lol. Can totally relate. You can hear yourself for the first time! Is that what I sound like?? 😂
The whole galaxy knows that we peaked as species in the 90s. This is just another tiny piece of greatness of those glory days
1 year after their record deal... How insane is that? It shows how hard they rehearsed before signing.

There are millions of Oasis fans in the US.
Oasis was a huge band here
The thing is.. for those that were there like myself, main rd and Knebworth no explanation is needed for those that weren't no explanation is possible
He’s so down to earth…..A true national treasure 😎👏👏👏👏
I was lucky enough to go to both Knebworth and Maine Road. Best gigs I have ever been to. Generation defining events.
I know Noel has been more than clear that there is no good reason for a reunion. But! Just imagine how BIG it would be !!!!!! Just imagine it for a second, Noel!!!
well I think that might change tomorrow. looks like the oasis comeback is on...
3:32 his Irish accent came out "but we powered through".
I was set to see them in Atlanta ‘96 and they broke up literally the night before. Liam bought a house and Noel got on a plane back to England. I was blown away. It was on the radio that morning and all over school cause folks knew I was going. Fk how’s it been that long ago?!
They were really really great gigs because he was a really really great songwriter
There we were🫡
I was at that Sheffield gig in 95 ,support by pulp
You are very lucky!
I also saw prince at Maine road in 1990
@@musicbybackinnyc1shit, sorry to hear that mate
@@dullsearakehe means Prince the singer, not Prince Andrew I think
@@mrhaltonok did you know prince is of indian descent?
Espectacular!!!!!!❤
He said Liam!

"fezzys" dont ever use that word again please
Why didn’t they do more nights at Knebworth????
They did two nights at Loch Lomond the week before, equally as big
@@marklevesconte4336no where near as big as
Probably the logistics of it all. There'll never be gigs of that size seen in the UK ever again. Safety means they'd never let that many people in.
In the Supersonic film Noel states they were offered more gigs at Knebworth but for the first time (owing to how big they'd become and having to process it) backed away from doing so, the promoters later told them they could have done 7 nights with the amount of people that tried to get tickets and missed.

Balloch Park was awesome... 👍
I was 17 when i went to knebworth in 96. It was my first concert. Im still waiting to go to a better one. It wont happen. but im cool with that.
Noel forgets they played Earls Court, not just Sheffield Arena, before Maine Road
Had to put subtitles on for the manc
They’re coming back! 27.8.24
Yep Pink Floyd Main Road remember it well ❤
They were really big at that time! Reunion* make it happen.”
Was that Earls Court at the start?
does anyone know what hes saying?
90s was better. Born in 82, was 13 when Oasis released Definitely Maybe. Then they were off to the races. What a time to be alive. Then the E buzz started. Haha!
Yes!!!! Born in 80. Same path followed!
What a world we live in were in twenty years we go from the biggest band in the world being Oasis to Taylor Swift (and Taylor is actually much bigger as far as world wide ticket sale go) 😊🤷🏽♂️

What's so good about Taylor Swift ?
It's not Taylor Swift's fault that rock music went into decline. Blame the shitty rock bands. I am pretty sure Taylor Swift likes Oasis, Liam's single 'For What it's Worth' was on her spotify. There has always been pop stars, even when Oasis were at their peak
Taylor swift 😅
To be fair Madonna was huge back then, she's pretty much that generations Taylor Swift.
The Chief ❤️
Black and white photos like it was the 60s
Maybe 🎶🎵
2:30 "What can we do after this?"
Take over America, Noel. You were supposed to take over America.
Didn't quite work out, though
@@JohnWildeFF They didn't do too bad.
Sorry but Morning Glory going 5 times platinum in the US should've been seen as a HUGE success for them but they never got praised for it.

The Noel of 1996 looks nothing like the Noel of 2024. Hard to believe they are the same person.
Noel sounded his older brother Paul back then
Oasis '25!!!
Call your foookin bruv! Get the Big O back on the road!
Oasis exploded huge during the 90s.
MANCHESTER!!!!
1:15 Did he mean 1990?
No. I think Pink Floyd were doing their delicate sound of thunder tour in 88.
@@SirValeous Yeah they were, I just thought Noel meant he saw them at Knebworth that year. I probably misunderstood and he meant he just saw them live in '88.
Pink Floyd played a short set at Knebworth in 1990. It was some festival that also featured Robert Plant and Paul McCartney playing short sets. I can remember it being a bit crap when it was shown on the box.
@@GeorgieWood765 Oh wow didn't know that. Thanks!
I hope they don't look back in anger.
Noel's turning into Father Ted
lol at the “urgjjjhh..” bit
'A conshiderable difficulty' So glad im not that hi vis man.
BIBLICAL
One of their biggest shows was Knebworth Park.
He wears parkas.
He is being interviewed on a parquetry-laid floor.
Is it just me, or does Noel enjoy his park life? AAAAAAHHHHHHH
Love the copper 👮♂️ 😂
" bone head was in another post code "😂
Oasis probably should have split up after the first two albums.
Got to have serious bottle to play gigs that big....they made it look like a breeze.
Doesn't know how many maine road holds that sounds like a man city fan
So easy to do
2025 Cooooomeeee onnn
There is God and there is the peaky blinders plus the stone fukin roses and oasis happy Mondays Rkid lucky boro fc liveforever 🎉
Boneheads in a different post code 😂
Get Oasis back together chief!
Noel talking about Maine Road and they show pictures from Knebworth 🙄
its all happening again with a new set of gigs.
Never heard of him
Still talking about the band but wont stop this stupid feud as brothers when there chasing 60 😂
Bloody
🥱…mr potato head can’t move on
One of the most overrated bands musically of all time. They are a prime example of it's all about timing 😂
I don’t hear it 🤷♂️
I can 👌

Never got their appeal! Haven’t done much in 30 years to be comparing themselves to Floyd though.

Also, your career now, this constant dirge of boring interviews is also crap
Who cares where they played. Plenty of better bands(every other band on the planet) have played big venues so why is this even a question
Oasis at Knebworth ranks among the biggest ever. No, not every other band has done it, that's the point

Oasis are a great band end of story
Very overrated band. Better if Pink Floyd get back together.
You know nothing
No Floyd without Rick Wright I’m afraid
It's alright, Liam's doing it, so you can stay irrelevant, Noel. 😅
So much SWEARING not necessary at all using filthy language its not cut out should be god he goes on and on
Yeah its fooking bloody ridiculous omg. To hell with that fooking kind of fooking language omg
so oasis were shite in areana gig settings but if they play clubs they shine the most.. thats kinda lame, music should be able to be performed anywhere.
?
No no no, I was at Maine road on the Sunday. it was amazing. Some of the arenas 2000 onwards weren’t quite as good but still great.
Most bands are better in smaller venues; it’s about connection with your audience and the audience with each other. There are bands also whose music suits stadiums more - the U2’s, Pink Floyd’s and Queen’s of this world.
Was that the last time he was barely relevant?
Still selling more records than you mate i’m sure

You still clicked on it and took the time to write something. And it wasn't a song you wrote was it? Go and tidy your room your mum will be home soon
Didn't his latest album hit number 1 in the charts!
Noel's current band has about half billion spotify streams. You're so cool for trying to ignore it
£22.50 was a snip for my sunday knebworth ticket.
