Rother was the one in the KR doc that i thought I'd like to go down the pub with. If the reports I've had of the last time he played glasgow are true, he'd happily do so too.


Agreed.

Hope I scrub up as well as that at his age too.

Good on him to single out tracks by Oasis rather than blank their whole repertoire. Yes we all know there is a lot of shit but there are also some gems to be discovered in their back catalogue that will only shine for those ears and minds which know no prejudices.

Rother is very forward looking, mature and says a brave thing for an artist with his credibility. I'm sure many of his contemporaries wouldn't be so honest.

Shame that attitude isn't prevalent more on this board with people discussing songs, pieces of music more often than discussing the bands who made them. Trust the art not the artist.

Happy birthday to Charlie too!

Thanks mate.
I am 42 now and slowly dissolving day by day, returning to the void. ... as we all are. I am strangely okay with this cosmic transaction as old age seeps in. (((griN)))

Fair point. I know I'm guilty of lumping a band's career into "good" or "bad" categories rather than looking at individual pieces of work. It is all too easy to generalise, isn't it? That said, I must admit I'm not really an Oasis fan, despite not minding the first couple of albums.

And may I add my "many happy returns!" to cHarLie...42? blimmin spring chicken!

He's just saying the Oasis effort was fair enough, not really vindicating their existence or nowt;-)

Seems he actually does like the Buttons though.

i reckon the ultimate state of being, that is totally in the present or one with the void as you might say, transcends the duality of life and death (and boundaries and temporality and shit like that. Man!)

happy 42. I have just turned 32, and Julian is 52. And we were all born within a couple of weeks of each other. Not that amazing really is it?!!
