IPODSTU -by trading on former glories, what i mean is that because oasis' first two albums were so very good, people still keep going to see them, and buying the music because of what they once produced. there have been some good Oasis singles post 1997 -'Hindu Times' 'Crying' 'Idle' but some dross too 'Lyla' for example. And as for the way that Noel keeps slagging bands off for being to university...salt and vinegar for that chip on your shoulder, mate? Plenty of working class people go to university.BTW: I could probably write the interviews for the next Oasis album now: 'we got it slightly wrong with our last album but this time we got it right. Oh and we hate bands X, Y and Z for having gone to university.

I took flack for being an Oasis fan at school in 1994 (yes, I'm 31, old people read NME too) and was pleased to see them do well. But from Be Here Now onwards they have been trading on former glories. Anyone who raves about how good Oasis were at Glastonbury wasn''t there, I was the band of the weekend were pulp by a country mile.Mind you, like the Kaisers, but think they need to deliver something more radical for their third album.
