2015 Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 On the topic of music. Basically anything in the charts annoys me, the same rubbish over and over again being played, no range in different genres or styles, just the same pop music being farted out all the time and overplayed on the Radio. 'Rock' and 'Indie' bands today having high pitched voices, which doesn't sound very rock 'n' roll to me. Modern day rock is pretty much dead in the mainstream because it's too risky for the media/radio stations to play it in fear of backlash from their daytime tv type listeners who just want Cardi B, Taylor Swift and Adele on the go 24/7. Also the amount of English singers who sing with an American accent in their songs. Embarassing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nebristolred Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 (edited) I do think that an Oasis reunion, should it ever happen, has been hyped to such a ridiculous level now that it could never possibly live up to it. And it would no doubt cost £300 for a ticket and be full of the piss-throwing chavvy bell ends that end up at these gigs. They do have really strong songs though that are the best to belt out, and both Noel and Liam live are good fun. As far as Manc bands go, The Smiths and The Roses were better for me but I think a lot of the Oasis hate is purely down to how 'everywhere' they are. In some very specific demographics they're arguably actually bigger than The Beatles, so I can see why they do some people's heads in and would be a Room 101 band.

They're still as popular as they were 20 years ago and I think a reunion would probably kill the popularity they still have. My annoyance with casual Oasis fans or the haters is they only seem to name two or three songs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love a one off tour - i loved Oasis. They were the first band that i ever took any notice of. I’m off to watch Liam in June which I’m hoping will be as close to Oasis as it can get. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop showing off! Haha..my neighbour puts his out in stages. Moves it from the back of the house to the side alley about 48 hours prior to collection morning, then about 24 hours prior it goes to the front of the driveway. The binmen normally arrive at about 4pm. Edited January 3 by ExiledAjax 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dollymarie Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 People who think they own the road/space outside their house, and therefore they are the only ones allowed to park there. Basically any kind of passive aggressive parking. Also people who have garages and then DON’T park their cars in them, or on their driveways, and then complain about anyone parking on the road outside their house. Also, my absolute biggest bug bear related to cars/driving - MIDDLE LANE HOGGERS! I wish someone would invent a device that you can strap to the side of your car, and then shove anyone not driving in the appropriate lane over. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ha….yes, definitely, you’d think that the term “hazard” would say all it needs to, but apparently not! Of course, when it’s outside Greggs it’s entirely legitimate (or so it seems!)

His other car a TVR appears occaisionaly and must need tuning as he sit on the drive revving noisily for 5 minutes before leaving and after returning home! Must be a cry for attention? To be fair there is a genuine need to do those things on a rarely used classic car like a TVR.

I didn't say that but if making shit up makes you feel better do carry on. They are definitely not bigger than The Beatles overall by any stretch. But I definitely have younger family members who could name 10x as many Oasis songs v Beatles, they are without a doubt bigger in the younger generation. There were people congratulating Kanye years back for working with the 'new, upcoming artist' Paul McCartney ffs .
