They're alright,not brilliant but not the worse.

I'm not sure what music you like Si?Guessing you like a bit of Indie?I know Fred worships at the feet of the Bard of Woking after he played me his I-pod Saturday 8)

I like to mix up what I listen to but essentially indie. Been listening to more classic rock recently though...guess that's down to me learning the guitar.

I find stuff like the Fratellis a bit dull though

Agreed, i thought the massive venue was far too big for them at this early stage in their career's, Kasabian on the other hand were amazing.

I used to take my youngest to mother and toddler swimming at the Oasis......it was ace, loads of stand out nipples,  stretch marks and unshaven fanny lines. :P

 Pervs paradise....of course I was only doing it to teach my lad to swim.

 There used to only be one other father doing it......Tommy Jones.

Went to this on Thursday and thought it was excellent. First time i have been to a gig at the oasis and actually thought it was a good venue. Although it got very hot, but you get that at most venues.

Only really knew Chelsea Dagger before going but I thought they were quality and have since downloaded the album. Definately one of the better gigs i have been too.

Bloke at work went to this and said it was shite, he said the acoustics in the Oasis were awful which sums up why we need a decent gig venue built in Swindon.

I was due to go but a) couldn't get the night off of work and b) sooner get my £20 back.

I guess it depends on where you were stood as the acoustics were fantastic where i was.

Yep will get that off Stu today and pop it round.

Accoustics will never be great in a sports hall but where I was stood it was fine! I thought they were great and they really seemed glad to be playing a small gig and really got into it!

I don't see how you can call them shite based on Thrusday unless you don't like the music, in which case you probably shouldn't be there!
