LIVE REVIEW: OASIS, HAMMERSMITH PALAIS

The guitars were loud and the crowd was violent. From the opening notes of Rock And Roll Star to the end of I Am The Walrus, Liam, Noel, Paul, Paul and Tony played their guts out.

In between were great songs like Live Forever and Cigarettes and Alcohol and Noel's acoustic set.

I can't wait for the next tour!

No need to try and convince us

OASIS ARE THE NEXT BIG THING

 

IN REPLY TO METAL MICKEY

For your information, child, Crossroads and Always were chart toppers.

I bet you couldn't sing a song if it was printed out for you. Go back and listen to your Take That tapes.

Better still, go and play hopscotch. Metal Mouth, watch out. You might grow up one day.

Maybe, but who wants to grow up?

BE YOUNG AND MAKE RASH STATEMENTS!

TO MR REALITY (SMASH HITS REVIEW)

Who the hell do you think you are?

You seem to think you're so wonderful. Next year, I expect you to be on the review, doing any better. I'll be the one at the front laughing my head off.

They're all so talented, so shut up and get a life.

Mrs Reality

PS You suck, creep

If he sucks, why steal his pseudonym?

HE SEEMS TO HAVE STRUCK A NERVE...

 

OFFENDER: JUNGLE MUSIC

THE CHARGE:
Jungle is a pathetic excuse for music and is over-rated.

THE PROSECUTION:
Too much destroys brain cells, it sounds like a car engine, The lyrics are gibberish.

THE DEFENCE:
Some people think it's the coolest thing since rap.

THE SENTENCE:
All jungle music to be destroyed and disposed of in Mongolia.

Mrs Dorff, In Bloom

What happened to the verdict?

PITY THE POOR MONGOLIANS!

 

DEAR MR SAD DUDE, BRISTOL

Who do you think you are - saying that REM are moaning old crusties?

In my opinion YOU ARE A MOANING OLD CRUSTY. I mean, sending in 10 things that do your head in. SAD.

By the way, have you actually stopped moaning to listen to REM? I don't think so.

An annoyed REM fan

So what if they are moany and old?

THEY STILL SOUND PRETTY GOOD

 

DEAR MEGA-ZINE

I'm just writing to confirm that, yes, there will be trouble after Mr Reality contaminated my TV screen.

Maybe he could be more specific and say why (or what) "ravers suck"? Is Mr Reality too pathetic/dull/inadequate to dig into some SERIOUS dancing and have some fun?

Best wishes, and get a life.

A female raver who doesn't suck

Ouch! Reality may well bite...

BUT ZINERS BITE BACK!
