Actually I enjoy a bit of Oasis but they are about 1% as good as NG seems to think they are.
I love Oasis.

I've got my best mate moving here to work for me. He lands on the 15th in the evening.

Tempted to make him find his own way to accomm but that would be pretty brutal I think.

No it's just him live, Sandance is a lot more dance orientated.

Also like the Roses gig they were going to charge 500 to get down the front and 250 for normal tickets, but he said no way to that. Good man.

They are apparently looking to have a series of ‘Line at Atlantis’ concerts in addition to Sandance’s.

Tickets bought, looking forward to it. Love him or loathe him he has written a lot of good sing-a-long numbers.
He's brilliant, as was Oasis, and his solo album is pretty good - he is a genius and I can;'t wait to see him it'll be a cracking night.

It was supposed to be under the Sandance label - and they have pissed off a big sponsor by changing it.

tell me about it. I bought the 500DHS tickets thinking it got you more than just down the front. (got vip for glasgow and although thats around 1200 dhs, you ahve access to bars, some goodies, a few free drinks/food and, in general, you wont have to wait 4 hours for a drink like heaton park.)

I ahve now paid another 500 dhs for the mad pad. the mad pad is at the aback of the normal tickets on a raised platform so basically, my tickets which were for down the front were a waste of money. I will see how the mad pad looks when i get in and if its crap, will head closer to the front.

Maybe time to bring this back.. Really looking forward to this at the weekend.

Not been to gig at Sandance before, and I see that they are running buses to some areas after gig. Is this normal? Do they run pretty quickly after gig if so?

Hopefully there will be more beer stalls than at the Stone Roses!

Good question, I hadn't thought about transport, I doubt taxis will be in abundance either. Is there a link to what routes the buses will be taking so I can try and make a plan? Is the metro open that time of night, I guess not?

AWESOME!

Richard Ashcroft was outstanding, best I've seen him by far. Noel- fantastic apart form all the fights breaking out, I was right down the front and got caught up in 4 fights close by one which resulted ina ciggie being stubbed into my back. Such a shame these guys can't handle their booze.

Other than that it was the bollocks!

Discovered I am too old for Zane Lowe- no idea how to dance to that shite without substances being taken, big fish little fish doesn't cut it these days
